Yeah object permanence is not strong with mine either. She'll go into another room, forget I exist, scream, I respond, she's like, "Oh hey, you're right where I left you!"

Tiny fuzzy airhead.

Not even that though. Like if my chronic medical condition is adequately treated, I'm able to work, be productive, pay taxes, contribute to the economy, hopefully contribute to my community.

But that would eat into an insurance company's profits, therefore they'd rather opt to let me die and replace me with a new unit that can pay premiums longer without needing any actual medical care.

The only entity that has a positive financial incentive to pay for the medical care that keeps me healthy is the government.

Medicare for All, now.

I call in a refill on my prescription. It takes them 4 years to fill it. Then they text me every five seconds for the next three days until I pick it up, threatening to throw it into the fires of Mordor if I forget.

And then they blame it on the Democratic president, so...yes.

It's illegal to ask you not to discuss wages in the United States. Violation of federal labor law.

I was honestly onboard right up to the point that Thor cracked jokes immediately after learning that his people's children had been kidnapped. That should have been the moment we pivoted back to Thor the hero. For Thor to be that unserious in that moment just felt really out of character, even for wacky/funny Thor, which is a character I love personally.

I think Ragnarok struck a much better balance between funny Thor and hero Thor.

No, I think conservatives who think they want to cosplay as soldiers are exactly the people who need to see what their fantasies would really look like, if brought to fruition. I think the ad placement was deliberate and the movie is intended to be a shock lesson for all people, but especially these ones.

Syringes getting stabbed into the necks of unwilling people is my niche pet peeve.

I'm a critical care nurse lol. There's no anatomy in a neck to receive an injection. There's not enough muscle mass, and you're not hitting a jugular vein without a person's full cooperation and a helluva lot of skill with IV injections. There's a nontrivial chance that you're just going to inject the medication into a person's trachea or esophagus, or worst case scenario directly into their spine.

Arms, people. Arms are where we inject people who don't want to be injected. Right through the clothes, if need be.

Peripherally related: Why are all needles used in movies like 2-3 inches long? No one uses needles that large for anything in the real world.

Homeopathic products contain zero dose of active ingredient, not even a microdose

Thank you for acknowledging that billionaires existing is a political problem. Glad we can agree

Right? This tweet screams, "Be just like me! Avoid therapy and slowly lose everything in your life including the last shred of your dignity."
