Love is when you’ll still do something even if it’s 100% not what you want to do because it’ll make them happy

Trump did start the lower cost of insulin train, but when he started it was only for “1,750 standalone Medicare Part D prescription drug plans and Medicare Advantage plans.” ^(1)

So yeah I guess he started it, but Biden actually did it with his Inflation Reduction Act, which Democratic lawmakers pushed through Congress in 2022. ^(2) (3)

Edit: sorry for the format on this one. I copied it from an earlier comment where I was being snarky

He only capped it for 1750 patients for 1 year. Biden got it done for everyone

While the Final Rule implementing EO 13937 was intended to increase access to affordable insulin and epinephrine, it did not fully understand FQHC operations and 340B Program mechanics, nor did it consider the possible negative consequences. If the Final Rule is implemented, it will do more harm than good in terms of ensuring access to care and medications for underserved populations

Ok so I looked it up cause I’ll give credit where credit is due.

Good thought, but that’s happening anyway unfortunately

Can I ask, respectfully, what you are doing to help besides complaining?

I disagree with the latter. Buying music is still good though

I mean, not to be a shill, but Spotify makes playlists every Monday and Friday showcasing new but older and new new music respectively. So it kinda does just come to you

Thats actually a really good rebuttal

Nope. They’re not supporting Hamas, even indirectly because hamas is in control of Palestine. They’re raising awareness to the needless killing of children and other innocents

I was gunna ride a horse when I was real young. Was at a party or something cause there was a good amount of people there. I was next in line to ride said horse. The guy in front of me, being it was his turn, went to walk up to another horse. That horse was not a fan a bucked. Hoof straight to the side of the face. Down he goes.

Last thing I saw was him laying there motionless. Never learned anything else of it as everyone had to leave. Never tired to ride a horse from that day foward.

I’ll chill with some cows though

Maybe we could ammend it or something. Just spitballin here

I’ve seen several pf those doctored videos on my girls feed, cause she isn’t too into politics and knew I would know better.

My guess is you watch too much politic stuff so you would know doctored stuff way too early. But to those that don’t follow its a lot easier to fool

I don’t know. Can you really classify us as just a virus or cancer? Aren’t they known for only destruction and sadness?

What about all the joy, happyness, and good we’ve broight to the universe. Sure, it may not be as prevalent but there’s small good deeds happening all around. Not just random people helping other random people, but beautiful pieces of art, songs that millions sing, books people remember and talk about, video games that bring far apart friends closser together, sports, dancing, DnD, pets, flower gardens, the list goes on.

Yes we consume too much, but we’re no ALL bad. Parasites perhaps, but not full blown viruses IMHO

Suicide is only a sin, so it would theoretically be forgiven. Problem is you must atone for your sins before death, and there no way to atone if your dead by your own hand.

Yup

Speak for yourself, monkeyboy

I think I would try everything to launch myself into space. I know it’s most likely impossible, but fuck it imma die anyway

Which is why jobs will still be a thing. You can climb the ladder of luxury all you want.
