What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.
I'm dubious about Amazon's commitment to keeping pre-existing conditions a thing of the past.

I know those "50 Songs You Didn't Know Were Covers" videos on YouTube are click bait, and, yes, all of the usual suspects are here, but expecting me to believe that Joe Cocker wrote "With a Little Help from My Friends" does stretch credibility a bit.

The first (1955) Danish edition of Ray Bradbury’s FAHRENHEIT 451. Later editions did not convert the title, so this is the only SI-compatible edition! 🎢

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."
Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.
Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.
We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

You know, on the one hand, I reflexively don’t love artwork which reduces a woman to her genitals. But on the other, Mary’s role within Christian theology specifically arises from her actual vulva, and contemporary Christian culture has a marked discomfort with that reality. I think I like it.
The new statue of the Madonna at Santa Teresa di Gallura is an "abstract of Mary's form" 👀

I don't know if it's even hating art so much as hating *artists*. It's the train wreck of entitlement crashing into media illiteracy.
I was speaking to someone after a film screening last week about how we all have that one piece of art or media that gripped us in a way that made us realise...

'you can generate a different ending every time you view a movie!'
'you can have endless text conversations with NPCs in games!'
'you can summarize a novel, you don't have to read it!'
the pitches for genAI really reveal how much the people behind it just... hate art.
like. *hate* art. deeply.

If your response to the question "What cancer screenings should be covered by insurance?" isn't "All of them," I don't even know what we're doing, like, as a species.
