  • Anyone know what happened to FlyingSquid?

  • Haha! Got you!

    And don't think changing your name to something like "POVsharer" is going to matter, either!

  • Senate GOP eyes Medicare cuts to pay for Trump bill

    Jump

  • I heard somewhere that the overhead costs for standard Medicare is around 4-5%. Medicare Advantage comes in around 15%, because of the need to turn a profit. It's very inefficient. The public option was always the best way to go, but we're stuck with this stupid narrative that private options will be more efficient. Like trickle-down economics, it's bullshit, and it needs to be exposed at every opportunity so that maybe folks will finally realize they've been hoodwinked.

    Fantasy, I know, but I can still hope for truth and rational thinking to win the day.

  • I voted for Trump

    Black cats may be evil, but they aren't vile. Take it back.

  • Promotional consideration paid for by the Babylon Project

    Jump

  • Well, I guess the Nazis Kirk fought weren't humans from Earth from the 20th century, but I recall they wore exactly the same uniforms and had the same symbology.

  • Kirk fought literal Nazis. Sheridan fought future Nazis. Why did you get downvoted for this comment?

  • Truly delightful

  • Anyone here like Folding Ideas? He's done some good stuff about flat earthers, crypto bros, and such.

  • Comic book legend Peter David dies at 68

    Jump

  • I read Imzadi and Vendetta. I really liked the latter because it involved one of Guinan's people using the Doomsday Machine to kick the Borg's collective ass.

  • He wrote a lot more Star Trek fiction than just the one novel.

  • people keep talking about how "em dashes" are evidence of ai. i use them all the time. am i a computer now?

  • Holy crap, I've been an AI all this time!

    Be cool, man, be cool--maybe they won't be able to tell...

  • Trekkies, is this accurate

    Jump

  • Ah. That makes sense. LD may be relatively new, but they do have, what, five seasons now? I'm getting old, I guess.

  • Is there a reason there's no BNW?

  • I didn't vote for this

  • Nobody is "transing" the kids. These people are beyond all reason.

  • I hope the Swiss Guard are on their toes. I guarantee there are crazy fascists only too willing to try their hand at assassination.

  • "Like your breasts aren't dangerous enough." A real and actual quote from that show.

  • Is there a sapphoandherfriend analogue here in Lemmy?

  • Medicare Advantage Bribery Scheme Highlights 'Bad Behavior' Trump Wants to Reward

    Jump

  • Medicare Advantage is a scam, period. Apparently, standard Medicare overhead is 5% or so. Medicare Advantage has around 15% overhead costs, as companies line their pockets.

  • If all your basic needs were met and you didn't have to work to get by, what would you do with your life?

    Jump

  • Exercise to get healthy and work on my garden, to start. Then I'd handle any necessary projects for my home. Then I'd find causes to support by volunteering.

  • In an unusual move, the Trump administration pre-emptively sued Hawaii and Michigan to try to stop them from suing oil companies over global warming.
