Let's make billionaires into millionaires. There needs to be a cap on how rich the rich get.

Why did you have to say such rude stuff about what I said? You are not fun

You made a rude comment suggesting that I don't know what the words mean. Are you going to argue your case or play dumb? Why is my statement incorrect? How would you define the terms that invalidates my statement? Give your most charitable assessment. I'm not in the mood for straw man argumentation.

Enlighten me with your argument

Anxiety is fear plus rumination. It is fear intellectualized.

Great work!

Adulting is hard. I never really feel I learned how to do it. Now I get to do it on my Dad's behalf. It's going surprisingly well so far. And I have help.

I swear on the grave of my father you will reach the top alive

Universal health care map

70% of the world’s population has universal healthcare, but not the US

We are the only highly developed nation without it

Our healthcare is twice as expensive as the average wealthy nation

US ranks last among industrial nations for deaths that could be prevented with timely access to healthcare

I don't know what's more stressful: moving my Dad, losing all my female organs in two weeks from now, learning that my dad isn't at all the person I thought he was, extreme money shortage, having to depend on others in every aspect of my life.

I need an inexpensive housing solution for my Dad in the Denver area. He has dementia and cancer. He needs meals, laundry, and medication managed on his behalf. He makes too much for Medicare and not enough for most assisted living. HELP

Mother Gooszick Rhymes with Music. There, I fixed it.

815 billionaires hold more wealth than half of American households.

If that doesn’t tell you we’re in a second Gilded Age, I don’t know what will.

On the other end, stay conscious in each bite. Holidays may be emotionally stressful even if your current Thanksgiving family dynamic is not reflective of the traumatic one, but give yourself other supports that you don't dissociate and binge. These are your people at this table. Let them help.

It works just like Twitter in that you select the post's frame to see replies. I never liked that "feature" Hitting the little speech bubble creates a reply. Aim for the negative space

Mom: have Thanksgiving here so you don't have to clean your house
Me: if I don't host Thanksgiving, my house won't get cleaned

I don't like rich people. They can be pleasant, intelligent, nice, but hoarding wealth is never kind.

My gift wish list right now:
1. somebody comes and takes away all but essential belongings from my house.
2. the book, "How to Keep House While Drowning"
3. A perfect placement for my Dad who is gay, has dementia, and cancer and needs a safe home for his remaining days

Hello to the place that is not Twitter.
