You know what would make people feel like entrepreneurs? Not having to worry about health insurance so that they can start their own businesses or take their labor where they want. Best econ argument for single-payer is it would relieve pressure on SMB and encourage entrepreneurship.

at this point my only hope is that someone convinces him to have the US take an equity stake in health insurers like they have in tech and they go bankrupt and have to be nationalized.

Imagine trying to decide on the right mobile phone plan but if you choose the wrong one it will bankrupt and/or kill you.

Lets hope someone convinces him to do it to health insurers

Didn’t click for me how much Animal Collective borrowed from the extended outro of King Sunny Ade’s “365…” in the breakdown of Brother Sport until my 3rd listen today. Probably my top b-side.

They do this on Sunday nights so no one is there answering phones. Cowards. How can they enable a historically unpopular, historically corrupt, historically dishonest and historically wicked administration?

Real moral cowards.

I swear they do this shit on a Sunday every time so there’s no one answering the phones.

You too @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social . You and Chuck better not roll over for this deal. It would be shameful to enable such wickedness.

Know this, @schumer.senate.gov — if you cave, we will not rest until you are primaried and wrested from your seat. When kids on SNAP aren’t being fed, we’re even more hungry for justice. New York has shown you the people’s power just days ago. You *could* join with us, still, and do the right thing.

Honestly, the Conservative reaction to Mamdani’s victory is pretty much exactly the same as their reaction to Obama’s. So look for the media to start pumping up Tea Party 2 very soon.

Nice boob light up there too

Thank you for your service.

The candidate said he first discovered E.D.M. when he was in London and Berlin in the 1980s and ’90s, organizing patrols for the Guardian Angels. He’s held onto his passion for the genre over the decades. On Spotify, Mr. Sliwa and his wife, Nancy Sliwa, have eight followers and two public playlists, titled “Vibes” and “Nancy & Curtis Summer Hits 🔥,” which include music by Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia.

Today may be the last time I learn a Curtis Sliwa fact but it’s good to go out with a bang: Sliwa is long time fan of EDM and his campaign theme song is “the E.D.M. tune “Best Day of My Life” by BUNT.,”

A little known fact about The End of Evangelion is that it's viewed entirely from Vin Diesel's perspective.

This book rules. There’s an added context of the Argentinian junta’s “disappearances” that give a real life valence to the mystic shit

Got one last year so unfortunately this pigeon now feels cursed to me.

Happy Dracula's Birthday everyone! What did you get him this year? 🩸🩸🩸🅰️🅱️🆎🅾️

Swear to god if anyone does one of those “you think you had a bad day, Mark Z lost x$bn” posts…

Most live sports tweeting is just “what just happened?” or “yes!!!!!” or “oh my god” and I think that’s beautiful. This site may have the juice.

Mystery Man but he’s orange

“As a matter of fact, I'm there right now.”
“What do you mean? You're where right now?”
“At your house.”
“That's fucking crazy, man.”

Tin of Chimes ginger chews (FAR superior to Gin-gins) showing three views of a troubling face reacting to Chimes, the best ginger chew’s smooth, energizing and satisfying qualities.

The Chimes guy says hello

No joke, got a physical postcard in the mail from a company reminding me to check my online shopping cart and complete my sale.

It: Welcome to Derry Girls is that something?

Does this mean I’ll finally stop getting Let It Whip stuck in my head?

“I woke up late and have been very busy working so I probably didn’t see what you are referring to”

Maybe I should ditch Thanksgiving and try to see MBV and Radiohead on successive nights in London 🤔

He must be dying, right? Trying desperately to get this ballroom done before he croaks.

It’s this one!

Can I tear at the layers of reality until I get back to 1999?
