Oh, no, the Tricare is definitely not worth it. But it's nice to know they're not really trying and would love to cut back on pretending.

If the Democrats didn't hate Americans and make deals with Iran and China we wouldn't have to keep cutting other parts of the military so you could have bullets, which we ran out of in 2016.

Movement out of Congress! https://twitter.com/KristenhCNN/status/1295126471623704577 So this week is DNC stuff, (edit: and a Tuesday flood-the-zone visit to Post Offices), then a Friday travel day, Saturday vote on this bill, then a Monday urgent hearing with the Postmaster General. https://twitter.com/biannagolodryga/status/1295013384845393921 Right before the RNC starts! That should be fun for Republican at-risk Senators to deal with. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Aug 17, 2020 |

Does this bill also fix the malicious retirement requirements the USPS got saddled with, and authorize them to fix their personnel problems by hiring more people, and re authorizing overtime?

I thought the USPS had finally paid all the retirement requirements. Also I remember being told earlier this week that it didn't matter if the House passed any bills as the Senate wouldn't play ball. What changed? The Democrats finally figure out that inaction looks really really bad?

It’s a continuous requirement for the USPS to hold 50 years worth of pensions on hand. It didn’t go away or is paid. The house had been continuously passing legislation since flipping in 2019. It still always languishes in Mitches desk, but because USPS is the backbone of something like 7 million jobs (not directly employed by mind you, but reliant on) it looks really bad on a lot of on the cusp GOP to openly go against it. It’s a political move and won’t fix anything beyond make the GOP look bad to people who could be out of work if the USPS completely shits itself.

Class traitor confession: I had a fever last saturday and ponied up $90 that monday for the rapid turnaround test from the local GP who I've long hated for literally writing me a prescription to go to church years ago when I sought grief counseling after losing my BFF and roomie to suicide, so I could resume earning income tuesday instead of in 6-10 business days

Diarrhea Elemental posted:Is it bad to wish that the stroke he had that basically ended his surgical career would've just killed him? These people were, and are, negligently allowing Americans to die day after day. We're nearing 170k dead. These incompetent stupid assholes didn't do anything right - anything they got slightly right, they did too late, or didn't go far enough with it. Their incompetence has led directly to the deaths of nearly 170k people. Criminal negligence, and outright refusal to implement plans that would "only help blue states" is basically one step removed from murder. I think it's safe to say that wishing death upon all of them is A-okay. They all deserve to rot in hell for what they've allowed, and continue to allow. I've lost two friends to coronavirus. Several other friends are still on the mend and may have permanent complications from it. One thinks he has PTSD from the whole thing, being in a hospital for 20 days. gently caress them all.

I’m not trying to defend him, but there are a lot of reasons a FOIA request will come back with nothing.
