The same parts of the electorate who voted Trump have been brainwashed by Fox News for decades into thinking single payer universal healthcare = "socialism." Even though the US spends a similar amount on medicaid/care per capita to that which other countries spend on their "socialist" healthcare...

I agree with constant stranger in that this is what you are telling yourself over and over. A not-so socially acceptable idea nowadays is that the underlying reproductive drive and general motivation to improve in your life are linked. This being particularly true for men, probably for some...

32% is double the rate of other insurers. They were also denying coverage for hospital emergency room visits (as if people go to the ER for fun), which is what wipes out life savings and puts people in debt.

The hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of UnitedHealthcare insured who either died while being denied life-saving care or were made bankrupt might disagree. Their families are already serving a life sentence. 32% claim denial rate my friend. The CEO was instrumental in that, as well as...

I wouldn't care if my ashes were put out in the dustbin...

Got what he deserved. The US health system is run for and by criminals.

Ah yes. This must have been when Wall Street was getting multi-billion dollar taxpayer bailouts 15 years ago. Or corporate tax breaks., effectively meaning someone on median income pays higher income tax than a giant multinational. Or Trump's proposed 25% tariffs imposed on goods from...

My mother was approaching the end of her life, I was anxious, lonely, socially inexperienced, almost inarticulate and needed somewhere to aimlessly vent. Better here than reddit at least.

Hopefully the only parts that 'live on' are from my mother. The thought of inheriting anything from my father makes me want to dive off the nearest high-rise building.

Looked into Lasik surgery for myopia. 15 years past the ideal age for it. I would probably need reading glasses afterward. Too late, just like everything else.

Everything about being younger and still having my family members alive.

In the habit of initially being cold and distant with people as a way of preempting them not liking me. It might have saved a few humiliating experiences but it's also destroyed dozens more opportunities.

It's hot over here too, but I don't mind for now.

Well it's not a good movie. The second half is awful.

I'm sorry...

Event Horizon (1997) :rolleyes:

It sounds sad...but gaming. Specifically, playing Final Fantasy 7 over summer January/February 1998 just before the first semester of university. I'd had a crappy time at school, almost failed and was directionless. That game was an incredible escape from reality. (No I won't play the 3...

Trying to distract myself from having to look ahead, with anything: going hard at the gym, anime/music/games. Debating with the unhinged on reddit. Anything to avoid having to face the future as an old man with nothing and nobody. My aunt is 76 now. I'm terrified.
