I think this entire thread would be a complete and utter waste of your time if it weren't for this part. LOL
The TERF wrote "So his sex was mistakenly assigned at birth. So what?" which I think is a fantastic sentiment and the only logical thing he said, even if I have fully taken it out of the context in which he meant it. LOL If he can cherry pick science to misconstrue what it actually says, why shouldn't we do the same to his own comments?

FWIW it's a"household essential" at Walmart.

You just died.

The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.
A long-haired brown tabby cat, probably. It has the head, front leg, back foot, and tail of a cat, but the way it's sitting, it looks like those parts might not be connected. It's hunched over, and appears to be staring intently at something directly below the camera.

"Nothing new"?

Was the CBC in the loop the whole time like the NYT was?

Or is AI just lying again? 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...
"Vast bulk of documents appear to reveal nothing new connecting late sex offender to U.S. president Mike Crawley. CBC News Posted: Nov 12, 2025 5:11 PM PST (*snip*) Donald Trump's name appears at least 1,500 times in documents from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein made public Wednesday by Republicans in the U.S. Congress, according to an AI-assisted search of the material by CBC News."

Why do you think most people aren't paying that? Shown is the LEAST amount my husband and I will pay on ACA. We don't have the option of an employer plan. We will opt for an *even higher* monthly cost plan because we WILL exceed that shown deductible - and we're relatively healthy!

"Most" = 54.5% (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...)
"Most nonelderly people in the United States who have health insurance receive it as a benefit from their employer. Most everyone reading this article will have employer-based health insurance and will assume that all employers offer health insurance. Yet, only slightly more than 50% of the US population (54.5%) has employer-based health insurance. 12 Moreover, most employers do not provide health insurance.13 A survey in 2022 by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that in the United States, less than half of private sector businesses (48%) offer health insurance to employees. It is important to note that the ACA does not require small businesses (fewer than 50 full time employees) to offer it. In addition, the "gig" economy that has flourished in recent years has created a drop in employer-based health insurance for many people. 14 In other words, in a system built on employer-based health insurance, people who have jobs are considered to be the ones who have access to care, but in fact many of them have very limited access to health care."

Our 2026 monthly bill for the 2-person Covered California plan that is likely to cost us the least overall (because we do actually need & use it, despite being relatively healthy) will be more than our monthly rent. But hey, we qualify for a discount. 🫤
"By using Covered California, you'll save $2.00/mo on your health plan. Your estimated yearly cost includes these savings."
