Except antibiotic overprescription and underuse (not taking the full dose before stopping) is a huge public health risk wrt evolving antibiotic resistant bacteria.

That said, yeah providing cheap access to necessary drugs is awesome and I support it in any way. Just hope people are using the amox responsibly.


My graduate school hosed up my insurance enrollment and I didn't have dental when I thought I did. So I had a filling break and had to get an emergency root canal / crown. All in all it ran about $4500. I was only pulling in about $2k / month after taxes in grad school and had no real savings to speak of. I had to borrow about $1k from a friend just so I could make rent and keep from getting evicted. I spent the next 8 months living on essentially rice and beans etc just to get back to normal and make the rest of the payments. I looked into suing my school but that would have cost more $$$ and with an unsure outcome. I didn't want punitive damages, I just wanted them to fix what they hosed up (did not actually enroll me in the poo poo I was supposed to be enrolled in).

It loving sucked and without a richer friend to bail me out I would have become homeless just because a loving root canal.

So the republican's in Wisconsin are taking their loss very badly. They're very blatently trying to kneecap their incoming democrat Governor and Attorney General. They're also trying to remake the primary system and substantially reduce early voting. Its real bad if this bill passes.

Yeah gently caress these cocks who have a stranglehold on my state. 46% of the vote and 60%+ legislative seats due to gerrymandering. I can’t WAIT for them to be in the political minority so we can tell them to gently caress off in the corner.

another pro grocery tip for you guys, buy the spices in the bags in the mexican section its like 99% cheaper than whatever mccormick poo poo

edit: based on poo poo I've seen in GBS I think a lot of goons view the grocery as like some climbing Mount Everest level of task

Just go to a Mexican grocery store even. Cheap + good poo poo.

We've got a few Cermak Fresh Markets (a small Chicago/Milwaukee chain) which are mostly Mexican but also basically pan-international food. Think if you crossed a normal Mexican grocery store & Whole Foods. Having hundreds of thousands of Mexican/hispanic immigrants owns for good food, no Tex-Mex bullshit but just straight unadulterated good food for dirt cheap.

The biggest shocker I've dealt with is counterintelligence people who support Donnie doing cheetah flips trying to explain how colluding with Russian actors isn't all that bad. Our job is to literally detect, identify, exploit, and neutralize foreign collection, sabotage, and influence operations against the US government. Also these people thinking that it was so offensive that a FISA warrant was put on multiple people in Donnie's sphere, despite those requiring a lot of levels of approval and an unbelievably high level of proof the individual is an agent of a foreign power.

When I worked in a CI office as an analyst probably half the CI dudes were Trump lovers, and one or two would probably legit believe in QAnon poo poo if it had existed then. The other half were chill and professional.

Ugh. Hopefully these clowns go nowhere. I think a good way forward is to just offer a public Medicare option as an alternative to private insurance on the ACA exchanges; obviously nature will take its course on private insurance without the huge upheaval (i.e. the GET UR GOVERNMENT HANDS OFF MUH OBAMACARE crowd) of transitioning directly to Medicare for All in lieu of the current ACA.

Just cause it was brought up a few pages back, but the CIA gave burials at sea to the Soviet Submariners they recovered when they picked apart that Soviet Sub in the North Pacific. They filmed it so they could give it to the Soviets if/when they story got out and it's kinda creepy.

I'm really surprised they haven't made a movie about Azorian/Glomar Explorer. Or Blind Man's Bluff, that'd be a badass documentary. Reading about Halibut, etc. is :stare:
