Now stop all the ghoulish commericals for chemo drugs when your oncologist would already know what to use. And there’s something weird about these ones that are for like “triple C breast cancer that didn’t respond to front line chemo”. Seems oddly specific and kind of gross for target families and patients that are obviously desperate to believe in some cure when all it offers is like 4 more weeks.
They even have a commercial where they show older person with a newborn grandchild with phrases like “every last second counts”. Seems very predatory to me.
All the red hearts for this. The 'fine print' warnings and disclaimers are supposed to be helpful? Informative to people who don't know shit about pharmacology? So maybe Nana makes it to Christmas, but not New Year's Day? It's perverted.
My Medicare prescription plan is 50¢ per month. I take several maintenance drugs every day with a $0 co-pay. When is Old Man Biden going to do something to cut my costs?!?!?!
My brother is a cancer survivor and thanks to the affordable care act was able to leave the East Coast and spend the last 3 years of my mother's life with her. She was overjoyed and her quality of life was improved tremendously. He would not have been able to do that before that because he would not have been able to get new health insurance. And my son was able to stay on my health insurance policy so when he needed surgery he was covered. So as pissed as I sometimes get at Obama about a lot of other things, thank goodness for the ACA and thank goodness for Joe Biden looking out for ordinary people and working to expand access to affordable health care.
Not necessarily. Some insulins are capped at $35 a month by last year's <mumble, mumble> bill. My insurance company has been switching my insulins several times over the past year, but each one is currently $25 a month (so I end up worth $50 a month plus about $50 more for testing and miscellaneous supplies).
(Never forget, they really tried selling us on the idea that Obamacare involved actual Death Panels. You know, like not allowing women who need an abortion for their own safety to get one.)
Democrats have trouble with messaging, because they aren’t comfortable saying dumb on the daily like republicans are. But this seems like an easy one - everyone remembers “death panels”. Texas Rs denying health care to an endangered pregnant woman should be pretty easy to hang around their necks, those assholes!
It's just in teresting to bear in mind the way "capping insulin at $35" is cloaked in their minds as something bad. First you'd have to tackle an actual diabetic bc others would have no opinion-- but what would they say? Anyway, they always have some bs.
Today I have received my beautiful red and white Biden sign I got on etsy for my window. It says -- on a red background-- MADE YA LOOK
VOTE JOE BIDEN 2024
in white caps. Hope no maniacs come and shoot me. Anyway, somebody's got to do something for the man. In my main window I hang a portrait of Santa from an old calendar also red and white. I was thinking tonight how similar they are amirite? I think I am.
I mean, Engoron can do whatever I suppose, Trump's MAGA goons don't have ME or any of my assistants on their hit list. I'm not gonna treat it as an emergency if HE isn't
seriously though...I don't get it...Engoron is 100% within his rights MORALLY and LEGALLY throwing shit stain in priosm
Fucking Jones. He's been evading the civil judgment for so long that the evasion itself must constitute a crime. If they can't get his cash, then put him behind bars.
It is up to the courts to fucking TAKE IT FROM HIM
because, again....IT IS NO LONGER HIS MONEY
can anyone explain this to me? Do the Sandy Hook parents NOT have the fucking RIGHT to have this awfulness BEHIND them? Do THEIR rights NOT FUCKING COUNT for anything????
I swear to fuck I want to punch the justice system in the dick over this...this isn't about Jones anymore
I'm not even talking about debtor's prison. I'm talking about criminal evasion of civil judgment. Kinda like how you can go to prison for bankruptcy fraud.
Ask him about the old days when they could stand on a box Thursday and spot the priest walking over to give the Sunday sermon. It's pretty fucking flat.
Mrs. Color (pbuh) and I used to watch Beat Bobby Flay, and one of the ingredients in the basket was Velveeta. The challenger responded with “I thought we were going to be cooking *food*”.
Are lower drug prices driving up drug prices? - 538

Save us from the tyranny of having to pay less for prescription drugs!
"RIGGING AND STOLLING Your Prescription Drug Prices And Making Them Lower!"
Oh the humanity...
My Medicare prescription plan is 50¢ per month. I take several maintenance drugs every day with a $0 co-pay. When is Old Man Biden going to do something to cut my costs?!?!?!
I, birb, like being alive too.
I cried when I found out the government lowered the price of insulin to $35 each month.
Now, my Mom can AFFORD HER MEDICINE.
Pres. Biden literally saved my mother's life.
My brother is a cancer survivor and thanks to the affordable care act was able to leave the East Coast and spend the last 3 years of my mother's life with her.

Just be glad that it's your mom who needs insulin and not you, assuming you're under 65.
You'd have had to pay full price, because Joe Manchin thinks you'd blow the money on drugs or something otherwise.
Not necessarily. Some insulins are capped at $35 a month by last year's <mumble, mumble> bill. My insurance company has been switching my insulins several times over the past year, but each one is currently $25 a month (so I end up worth $50 a month plus about $50 more for testing and miscellaneous supplies).
It is now a happy nest.
Y'ese
Biden: I’m here to lower prescription drug costs.
Trump: I’m here to become a dictator. I don’t give a shit about your prescription drug costs.
Old people with lots of prescriptions. God bless Donald Trump!
If he's reelected, how many of his voters will die as a direct result?
If STAYING ALIVE is no longer a consideration in the voting booth, what are we supposed to do with this cult?
DEATH PANELS, THO.
(Never forget, they really tried selling us on the idea that Obamacare involved actual Death Panels. You know, like not allowing women who need an abortion for their own safety to get one.)

Plus Trump is going make us go to the dentist. DRILL DRILL DRILL!
They truly live in and for HATE. Nothing else.

Just picture the second line under the first, pls! It's great.
Just as Jesus demands. Also: suspicion.
Why isn't he screaming? I can't even tell who he's exacting revenge on. Totally unpresidential.
WHARRR ACCORDIAN HANDS?!
Tears. Sirs.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Just hilarious.
I hope that woman he assaulted gets all of it in a civil case and his ass gets to go to prison.
Maybe even the rest of him goes to prison, too!
Is the media’s “Biden to old” narrative peaking too early?
It's already past its prime.
It becoming old and worn out. Pun intended.
Um, can we get some teeth in the gag orders now?

Next year sounds forever away.
Till you remember that it's basically 2 weeks.
Tick tock!
Not soon enough. Hate the holiday scamsession each year...
right?

“GO AWAY. ‘BATIN’.”
O/T: The jury has the case in the Giuliani defamation trial. He opted not to testify.
I hope the jury brought an extra-large calculator.
Rudy also defamed the two ladies in a news conference a couple.days ago saying everything he said about them is true
OI course, there's already a verdict that he did defame them.
When the judge heard that Rudy was still ranting about how what he was was true, he asked Rudy's lawyer, "is your client competent for this trial?"
The only question for them is: Should they leave some money for the next victim?
They could just take it all and put some in trust for other victims!
You mean, like, put some parsley on it? :-)
It's OK, they can use scientific notation for the damage award amount.
A $Googolplex judgment is NOT EHOUGH!
It's just a little bitty number to the upper right of the "10". How can it matter?
Justice be swift and true
Also hoping the courthouse has a giant novelty check printer.
Fucking Jones. He's been evading the civil judgment for so long that the evasion itself must constitute a crime. If they can't get his cash, then put him behind bars.
I don't understand...
the money is NO LONGER HIS
it is NOT UP TO HIM to HAND IT OVER
It is up to the courts to fucking TAKE IT FROM HIM
because, again....IT IS NO LONGER HIS MONEY
can anyone explain this to me? Do the Sandy Hook parents NOT have the fucking RIGHT to have this awfulness BEHIND them? Do THEIR rights NOT FUCKING COUNT for anything????
I swear to fuck I want to punch the justice system in the dick over this...this isn't about Jones anymore
TAKE
THE
MONEY
FROM
HIM
NOW
the end
I'm not even talking about debtor's prison. I'm talking about criminal evasion of civil judgment. Kinda like how you can go to prison for bankruptcy fraud.
It is now 'stolen money' because it is not his
you don[t wait for him to hand it over
YOU TAKE IT FROM HIM
Stollen money..
It's extra sweet.

"‘Groundbreaking’ anti-aging drug for dogs moves closer to gaining FDA approval"
https://nypost.com/2023/12/10/lifestyle/groundbreaking-anti-aging-drug-for-dogs-moves-closer-to-gaining-fda-approval/
Waiting for the first reports of human use for this, like ivermectin for COVID.
Does it decrease the “dog years” multiple down from 7 to something more sane like 6.28?
Good thing Trump hates dogs.
In Trump's case, his evident contempt for dogs is a striking symptom of his overall psychopathology.
He should try some orange tanner and a combover
It would actually be hysterical if he showed up for a presser caked in orange makeup and said, “Like this? Is this how it’s done?”
That would be a great “dark Brandon”
Orange Brandon!
I heard Zelenskyy is PAYING him to age.
In five days I'll be in Vienna, so I plan to have all the stollen. OK, probably more sachertorte, but still.
In five days, I'll be in Amarillo. Or I should be just about home again, five days from now.
I'm not looking forward to this trip. I want to see my son and all, but it's a journey, and we're not having the best automotive luck.
Goulash and erdapfel.
I often erdapfel after goulash.
Don't ask for a 'Danish'. As even the Danish don't call them that. They call them 'Viennabrot'. I think the Austrians called it a 'Pittsburgh Bun'.
My boss is a Dane, so I like to rile him up that way.
Ask him about the old days when they could stand on a box Thursday and spot the priest walking over to give the Sunday sermon. It's pretty fucking flat.
the great stollening of 2024
I am even making a Stollen tomorrow!
Ride like it was stollen!
oooh! that's awesome! you'll get a workout from the kneading too. :D
OT.
I'm going to make fudge.
Fuck the haters, this fudge will be awesome.
Who, even, hates fudge?
I do. It's gross. Way too sweet and I don't like the mouthfeel.
Ah. Not all desserts are sickeningly sweet. In fact , NO decent ones are.
I bake seriously and I'll bet I could change your mind.
Im going to make “Fantasy Fudge” (marshmallow topping jar) tonight. And I’m going to add some orange extract, because I am a heretic like that.
There’s a Paula Dean recipe that uses Velveeta. It’s surprisingly good.
The hell?
For fudge? Maybe white chocolate or something packed like Velveeta? Because, even for Paula Deen, ugh.
Mrs. Color (pbuh) and I used to watch Beat Bobby Flay, and one of the ingredients in the basket was Velveeta. The challenger responded with “I thought we were going to be cooking *food*”.
Why do you hate Processed amurriKKKan Cheese Food ProductTM???
Relatedly, there's a million mayonnaise chocolate cake recipes out there.
True, but mayo is basically eggs and oil, common baking ingredients.
Kraft Foods lists Velveeta's ingredients as: milk, water, whey, milk protein concentrate, milkfat, whey protein concentrate, sodium phosphate, and 2% or less of salt, calcium phosphate, lactic acid, sorbic acid, sodium citrate, sodium alginate, enzymes, apocarotenal, annatto, and cheese culture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velveeta#:~:text=Ingredients,-Nutritional%20info&text=Kraft%20Foods%20lists%20Velveeta's%20ingredients,%2C%20annatto%2C%20and%20cheese%20culture.

Yyyyeah, but getting your African American neighbors to dress like antebellum house servants is such a nuisance. It’s just not the old days, is it?
I know, and now they want you to PAY them to dress up too!
You just can't capture any good workers, anymore.
They apparently can't afford to purchase us.
☹️
Does it also call for 50 grams of mascara?
I swear to God I will burn this house to the ground, TO THE GROUND, before I let that twisted abomination exist under my roof!
Velveeta or Paula Deen?
Why not both?
What was that about haters? LOL
I didn't need to read that.
I just ate a grocery store apple fritter. I have no credibility.
Cheese fudge? Is that even legal?
Call it chocolate cheesecake.
“Cheese.”
I mean: hydrogenated vegetable oils shaped into a brick, with unnatural coloring. “Cheese.”
It doesn’t taste like cheese at all because, well, velveeta isn’t really cheese.
Point taken.
That doesn't mean it belongs in fudge.
I think it’s just there for structure.
Oh sure, now I'm sold.
Like Raisins in Potato Salad, So Are the Days of Our Lives.
