This was just the excuse I needed to give up on Meta all together.

What you are describing is a printer driver. OS bundles it now so it seems transparent. Now Before this bundling you had to install the driver for the thing to work at all. Driver is invoked by the print system of the OS. It works like you described which makes me think you might know that already?

The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.

But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.

Trump didn’t even wait for his inauguration to say he couldn’t do anything to lower grocery prices. You’ve been played, Trumpers.

I learned to program gw-basic on an 8086 based IBM ps/2 at my high school but my first computer was an IBM 486 SX-25. We had a few 386’s in that class room but the upper class men got to use those.

I’m just surprised she thinks it’s worth alienating half her fan base. It’s not a good business decision.

Not sure about you, but I wouldn’t mind a Friday night stealth document dump of some Special Counsel volumes…

Insurance companies employ a lot of people that would not be needed in, for example, a single payer system. This is the challenge right? Not putting millions of regular folks out of work?

I’m imagining something like an earnest apology given in a prime time address with stipulations on admitting guilt, acknowledging harm done and not disavowing the statements for some period of time (4 years?) even if asked about it. I’d love to see him squirm through a public apology.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Dear Joe,

I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act.

So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now.

it genuinely sucks that basically nothing on the internet works well anymore. search? barely works. social media? filled with garbage engagement-bait designed to game the algorithm. news websites? pages that refresh at random or so covered in video ads that it’s impossible to read stories

Outrageous! This needs to blow up. They want to throw out 60,000 votes and steal the state Supreme Court election in NC!
