The U.S. Economy Is Racing Ahead. Almost Everything Else Is Falling Behind. The gap between Americans’ prosperity and quality of life has grown since the 1990s.

Arguably *the* central story of American life in the 21st century.

At the moment, mansion-sized Asteroid 2024-YR4 has a one-in-fifty chance of hitting Earth in the next eight years.

Now might be a bad time to reduce spending on Science. Just sayin’.

The Kendrick Lamar halftime show was positive because a lot of people are now finding out and talking about 40 acres and a mule and what that means.

My fiancΓ© and I both worked retail for a long time, so creating a Christmas playlist that doesn't abruptly fill one or both of us with murderjuice is a complicated undertaking.

I went to pick up meds for my daughter's migraines. Insurance has decided not to cover it this month for god knows why. $180 for 9 pills. The pharmacist says "one sec, let me try to apply coupons," *clickety clack,* then he says, "okay, now it's $16."
Nothing about our healthcare system makes sense.

Rampell: A year ago, the Mexican government deployed a lot more resources to their own southern border and have intercepted migrants on their way. Why are you shaking your head? That's why border crossings are down 75%.

Look, this Luigi dude murdered a guy (allegedly) & that's not okay. But like it or not he currently represents the collective rage & frustration of everyone who's ever had their own life or death fight with an insurance company.

It's what he stands for that people relate to.

We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.

Atrium Health says it will forgive the debts of 11,500 people β€” less than a week after it was reported that the company has aggressively pursued former patients’ medical debts, placing liens on their homes to collect on bills.

My rage goes back and forth from "What the fuck is wrong with Americans?" to "Fuck them all - they'll get president and the country they deserve." The fact is I will probably be fine no matter what. But I wanted OTHER PEOPLE to be fine.
