I started playing Bounty of One this week and adore it.

They’re in Remission, but Their Medical Bills Aren’t: Cancer Survivors Navigate Soaring Costs - KFF Health News The costs of posttreatment care are forcing cancer survivors to make tough choices. GOP proposals to bring down health insurance costs won’t help people who need constant care and monitoring, health p...

kffhealthnews.org/health-care-... Every time I read articles like these, I think about that famous "LOTR vs. Atlas Shrugged" quote regarding libertarianism, emotional stunting, and orcs. Cost of care is a real problem, but it's not solved by pushing the risk back on sick people.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

I remember subscribing to @washingtonpost.com before their unofficial slogan became, "Is democracy dying? Here, have some darkness!"

"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country — what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS

Came here to say it was Kim Jong Oof. Nice work!

My man clearly had to fight with Cigna over an MRI

Hennepin County Medical Center is an important statewide asset and must be saved • Minnesota Reformer Only in the United States are for-profit insurers and providers allowed to cover the wealthy and healthy — while the public is left to foot the bill for the costly and uncovered.

Commentary: HCMC’s financial situation was not caused by mismanagement or fraud; it results from a system that reserves basic health care for those who can afford it, leaving underfunded public hospitals to pick up the pieces, and taxpayers to pick up the bill. minnesotareformer.com/2026/03/24/h...

It's in my other Bentley.

Won't even get chicken...

Cherry picking only works if you get the ball, and since it's not rec league... 🤦🏻‍♂️

I just heard back from the reporter, and I am genuinely speechless. Is “we don’t care” the business model?

That’s funny, because Nate Swanson, who used to be the point guy on Iran at the NSC but got fired because of Laura Loomer, warned of this in an article written four days before the war started. It was called “Why Iran Will Escalate.”

Grieve a Groupthink?

Doctor speaking now explaining the impact HCMC's training program has in our state: they have a pipeline strategy to replace retiring doctors, to fill psychiatric positions, they train nurses, lab tech, paramedics & emts. HCMC training stabilizes rural Minnesota healthcare, as well as urban.

Albert Einstein’s Little-Known Correspondence with W.E.B. Du Bois About Equality and Racial Justice “Professor Einstein is not a mere mathematical mind. He is a living being, sympathetic with all human advance… and he hates race prejudice because as a Jew he knows what it is.”

Albert Einstein was born 147 yrs ago #BOTD

Einstein corresponded with W.E.B. Du Bois while still in Germany.

After fleeing to the U.S:

"As long as I have any choice in the matter, I shall live only in a country where civil liberty, tolerance and equality of all citizens before the law prevail."

Rhymes with shagflation?

This show was such comfort food back in the day.

Do Gene Wilder and Liberace count?

The Kids Trump Sent to ICE’s Dilley Detention Center ProPublica went inside the immigrant detention center for families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the United States and the fear of...

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.

They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

Between the four of them, two farmed, one was a retail manager, and one was a real estate agent. (One died early and one grandma divorced and remarried, so four grandpas.)

Emmanuel Damas, 56, died in ICE custody on Monday.

Damas came to the U.S. from Haiti seeking asylum. After six months in ICE custody—the last four at CoreCivic's Florence Correctional Center—he died from complications from a tooth infection.

A tooth infection.

Hopefully some confidential source like Slurve or Eephus can tell us more about it. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Who was their writer, Terry Gilliam?

I addressed this in Part 3 of my look at the #NBPP2027 (w/a shout-out to @katie-keith.bsky.social & @mattafiedler.bsky.social, who did more comprehensive takes on it):

Kash Patel’s use of jet delayed FBI team’s mass shooting response, whistleblower tells top senator Sen. Richard Durbin says FBI director’s “misplaced priorities” led to the delayed response to the Brown University shooting in December.
