I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

There also were a lot of stories about people's unhappiness with the cost of goods, crime, immigration, etc. without much context on underlying causes / trends / policies.

But I doubt better media explanation of inflation would have actually significantly abated anti-incumbent backlash.

An Exandria Unlimited: Calamity-style mosaic portrait of Caleb Widogast from Critical Role. He is a pale-skinned, red-headed human wearing brown robes trimmed in black fur. He has an orange cat draped around his shoulders, and at the base of his neck, he wears an amber pendant. Behind him is a golden flame surrounded by atom-like circles.

caleb, too, would have made a great age of arcanum wizard (also affectionate, also derogatory)

A bunch of men are hanging out in a big hole. A sign points to it labelled "Hole." One of the men in the hole points to a sign that says "NEW HOLE." He says "hey look! someone made a new hole!" All the men frantically rush out of the old hole and into the new one. One comments "this feels like how the old hole used to feel."

digital fanart of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role, having dinner and a heated discussion at the same time.

Caleb is a light-skinned thin human in his forties; his dark red hair is swept back, and there is a touch of white at his temples and in his full beard. he is dressed in a white shirt, the embroidered collar open and the sleeves rolled up to reveal the regularly spaced long-healed scars on his forearms.

Essek is a young-looking slender drow with dusky lavender skin and shoulder-length white hair, which is curled in a swirl and pinned back neatly. he is dressed in a low-necked black shirt and a dark blue silk robe over it.

they're sitting at a dinner table, cluttered with both food and various books and scrolls. there is a woven bread basket, a peach and a plum lying next to each other, an inkwell with a quill, an open book next to Essek. Caleb is rubbing his jaw pensively with his right hand, pointing at something on a sheet of parchment in front of him with his left index finger, having pushed his half-finished bowl of soup to the side. Essek is sitting close to Caleb, holding a spoon in his left hand over his own bowl of soup and about to bite down on a slice of crusty bread in his right. he is looking at whatever Caleb is pointing at, leaning forward and listening intently. there is a calico cat in his lap, her mischievous face just visible over the edge of the table, and she is trying to swipe some bread crumbs closer to herself with a paw.

the color scheme is warm and bright, as if the room is lit with afternoon sun, and the semi-realistic rendering is done with wide textured strokes.

i feel like no amount of labeling and marie kondo-ing their cottage would stop Essek and Caleb's dinner table from becoming a research table as well

colored piece, fanart of Harrow from Harrow the Ninth
she's floating into the black space, holding a giant sword close to her chest, frowning in anger and sadness, tear rolling down her face painted as a skull
she's surrounded by many skulls with "IX" on their forehead, and ribcages, and bones

Shame! Shame! Shame! What New Yorkers Have Just Lost: Vibrant Sidewalk Life and Social Hubs NYC's dining sheds have created vibrant social hubs that have revitalized our sidewalks and public life. Now, we are on the brink of losing them and all the wonderful benefits they've brought.

This article gets at something I rarely see expressed about outdoor dining. The structures aren't just good for restaurants and the people using them, they often make walking down the street much more pleasant. Whatever problems exist could have been solved with smart city management.
