Or the people that don’t seek care at all because they know the care isn’t affordable. Folks with and without insurance die from treatable, non diagnosed diseases simply because they can’t afford the routine checkups that could have caught the issue in time.

I already use Firefox so I had no issue. Thanks!

It was! The drum set was incredible. They had a 4 piece choir of really talented singers in the background. It was an incredible show. I was young but it made a real impression. They even flashed back and did the giant pigs falling from the towers. I’ll never forget that night.

I took in this concert back then. It was a really great show.

Sublime is timeless to me. Wish there were more of it. Looking at you too Blind Melon 😞

Dancing with Mr. Brownstone is pretty predictable unfortunately. RIP to those two and so many more.

Doing 3 because I’m eclectic. They are different enough that I feel justified.

Tool - Fear Inoculum

Run the Jewels 2 (3 is incredible also)

Chappell Roan - The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess

I can listen (have listened recently and frequently) to all three repeatedly.

I got that back when it came out and always wondered why folks treated it like alternative pop. It’s seems like a dark mirror on rape to me.

+1 for Ground News. I recently found it and am enjoying using it.

No, learning sandwiches canals into indifference chismo. Instead pirouette inside astro turf. Realizing really way, like she said.

Both of you can GTFO with your negativity, imo.

a lot of stupid Americans that buy into Trump’s crap.

True. Unarguably.

Counterpoint though: There are a bunch of Americans that do not. I know many. I know Republicans that are voting Harris.

Harris by a landslide. I’m optimistic and am choosing to have faith in at least some of mankind.

Trump is power hungry while simultaneously old and simple minded. I remember Jan 6. I followed live feeds throughout and immediately after. I watched Trump’s speech, the riot it caused. I watched Ashli Babbitt die on some guy’s go pro.

I keep asking myself how in the hell Trump is even still in the running. What the fuck is wrong with his supporters?

Please get out and vote Harris! Harris is the way forward. She’s not Trump but also SHE IS NOT BIDEN. We need women in power. Look what men have done <gestures broadly>. She happens to be a good one, of course a politician, but she’s won my confidence. Over Trump it was an easy win.

Diseases that were once a death sentence are now curable like HIV and Hep C.

Nice

It’s been a few years for me but the last manual I had would stall if you didn’t give it a little gas before the clutch was fully released. Maybe I wasn’t holding it in that sweet spot you mentioned long enough, before letting the clutch go completely?

This is the way. It’s a ton off work and often, you have to be willing to be wrong about what you thought you knew going into a subject. Approaching news from multiple perspectives reveals your own biases too.

The perfect news source for me would be a single, trustworthy aggregator that showed me several perspectives on every story, all in the same place. That doesn’t exist though.

I do this too and I think, for me, it’s two parts.

1. Neurotic self analysis / self evaluation coupled with
2. An actual interaction where I chose poorly that day.

I over evaluate myself generally, so when I do make any mistake socially, my mind will find out on later self analysis and bug me about it.

I find it annoying now and try to dismiss it and go back to sleep. Half the time the thing my mind is fixated on is baseless anyway.
