So the FDA is banning a literal poison? Government overreach! /s

I love it when they try to give me reading assignments. I was there when the deep magic was written, freshman!

Isn’t Jeff looking yummy today?

Get in my belly!

I’m in love with Stanford Beer and his saying “The purpose of a system is what it does”.

So yes, if most of us are depressed and anxious then that is what the system is for.

Here’s how I think about it lately.

Just because society is falling apart, that doesn’t mean my social life needs to suck.

Nothing ever ends really, not until the last hominid gasps her last breath (and even then evolution may try again with other uplift eligible species).

Someone is going to live through this great upheaval. I predict it will be those who can build and keep good real-life networks of family, friends and general acquaintances.

Let it all burn down. I will sit by the fire with those in whom I see the image of the beloved.

That’s a nice sentiment on the surface, but it mellows into something slightly toxic.

A big wad of poster putty? That’s not good long term but the city is going to have groundskeeper Wille pull them off when he sees them.

Malcovich, Malkovich, Makkovich!

In the freezer, next to the peaches.

Do you have any links to conservative takes on this? I know full well I am in a bubble and that’s the way I god damn like it. But in this case, knowing the universality of the sentiment would be really, umm, empowering?

See you at the barricades.

What are you talking about? You just sort of wandered off in the middle there. If I sus your point, we just have to accept it? Or that it will be a gradual erosion?

You can sit there and be all wise. I’m going to keep shitting on insurance executives and encouraging others to do the same.

Thanks for the insight on the typical terms of bonds. Good info.

So eyes peeled on this one too I guess. They are making an example of her, I mean the judge plainly said so. We can’t let them get away with these excessive charges.

I didn’t kill anyone and I never will. But I will be damned if I let this moment fade into the next news cycle.

As a society, we are having the conversation about for-profit healthcare NOW!

I hope this case gets some attention too. This is some ginned up bullshit. We can’t let them stomp us into silence.

I’m not celebrating a murder, this is some fucked up shit in many dimensions and I would prefer a different timeline.

But remember we are not children who need to bow our heads and take our scolding.

For-profit insurance companies are liable for the deaths they cause. Full stop.

How’s that for moral clarity?

I googled the latest news on her (my mistake, right?).

There isn’t anything newer than 24 hours old. I guess they are making her sit in jail over the weekend?

Does anyone have any better info sources? I don’t think we should let this disappear.

Because of the implication.

Mr Buttle, I’m here to install your new ducts!

We measure what we treasure!

NBC news just did an article on this.

I see these donations as a media-buy by the people. I frankly don’t care if a dollar of this actually goes to his defense fund. I want this fundraising to be the story. As the number goes up the media outlets will cover it and keep this story going. That alone is worth the donation.

The Book-keeper of Auschwitz, Walter Groenig, was convicted of 300,000 accessory murder charges for deaths he was involved in doing the paperwork for.

Brian Thompson also implemented policies that resulted in avoidable deaths.

Both were motivated by an ideology that made the killings ‘okay’ for some bullshit reaaons.

They are very much the same type of crime.
