Next year, my ACA premium might go up 75%. My mom spends hundreds a month on medication. The US tops the world in bankruptcies as a result of medical debt. And yet this man is decorating the white house in gold and republicans are fine with it. It's all so sickening.

Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirementโ€”they removed the age requirement. Now, at any ageโ€”you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.

HBO Max Password Sharing Crackdown Will Get โ€œAggressiveโ€ Next Month, WBD Streaming Chief JB Perrette Says Warner Bros. Discovery's efforts to limit password sharing on HBO Max will start to get "aggressive" next month, a top exec said Thursday.

I see a bright side of all these password sharing crackdowns: More people spending time in community in person. Movie nights, sleepovers, folks just hanging in person in ways we lost during the pandemic.

Why you might not know that 2024 was America's safest year since the 1960s An overwhelming majority of Americans, 64 percent, believe that crime increased across the country in 2024, according to a Gallup survey conducted late last year.

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s

This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.

Here's why.

It takes me a LONG time to cut people out of my life, but even that decision, when finally made, is based on the answer to a simple question: Is my life better with you in it.

Received another pass on my manuscript. Undeterred: One yes from the right editor>1000 noes from the wrong ones. This is the ms that starts with an EO rescinding birthright citizenship & sending immigrants to live in districts. I started writing it as dystopian in 2017. Now it's reality. ๐Ÿ˜’
