West Virginia dad dies after insurer denied his $50,000 cancer treatment 4 times β€” 93% of patients face the same delays The vast majority of patients who require prior authorization from their insurer face delays, which can result in permanent disability or even death.

His oncologist recommended the treatment, his insurance carrier said no.

This country is spending billions on a no-reason-for-it war, yet Americans are dying, going hungry and homeless.

This cannot stand. Call your representatives in Congress, no matter their party.

The Epstein files really show us that we've been underestimating how much men hate women and children.

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING

Choose your leaders

with wisdom and forethought.

To be led by a coward

is to be controlled

by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool


is to be led

by the opportunists

who control the fool.

To be led by a thief

is to offer up

your most precious treasures

to be stolen.
To be led by a liar


is to ask

to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant

is to sell yourself

and those you love

into slavery.

fr i haven’t been to the movies since before i became a mom (also pre covid) and as much as i want them to experience it, i am waiting until they have the ability to remember such an experience. aka i’m not taking my two year old yet. that would be miserable for everyone involved!

yeah it’s very obviously intentional, i wish more people realized that. much like the school bombings, they do not want brown children to grow up. israel literally wants total annihilation.

Beware:
All too often, 
We say
What we hear others say.
We think
What we're told that we think.
We see
What we're permitted to see.
Worse!
We see what we're told that we see.
Repetition and pride are the keys to this.
To hear and to see 
Even an obvious lie
Again
And again and again 
May be to say it, 
Almost by reflex 
Then to defend it 
Because we've said it 
And at last to embrace it 
Because we've defended it 
And because we cannot admit 
That we've embraced and defended 
An obvious lie.
Thus, without thought,
Without intent,
We make
Mere echoes 
Of ourselves-
And we say
What we hear others say.

Excerpt From
Parable of the Talents
Butler, Octavia E.

i really have no feelings about easter. i’m not religious and despite its pagan roots, easter feels *more* religious than christmas, and id really rather we celebrate the beginning to spring and winter instead of jesus’ comings and goings
