Bernie continues to espouse truth.

Speaking for myself, my eyebrows are not raised. I remember reading that day that it was a shattered teleprompter or other shrapnel that nicked or sliced his ear, not that a bullet had passed through it. In any case, I personally don't quite understand the importance of the distinction. He was shot at either way, no? If it were a nick by glass I imagine it would've healed by now.

Edit: I forgot to mention... Fuck Trump and his ilk, they deserve being two-time losers come November.

Fuck this stupid world we've built.

[...] carrying out what is likely the highest number of protest-related arrests there since the Vietnam War.

That's pretty telling of the state of things.

Like a self-inflicted extinction event for the ingroup. A study in selective evolution.

This is actually quite eye opening to me, as someone who doesn't really ever have to look at ratings as a consumer and has always just taken them for granted. Now I'm keenly aware it's yet another example of runaway capitalism. Just never thought too hard about it.

PEGI's a cunt.

Or the crime

How timely! American here who just received a bill for scoping my sinuses by an ENT specialist: insurance covered $28 out of the $415 procedure. This is on top of the $70 copay I owe for the $195 office visit. So all accounting factored in, I owe $450 for what I thought was going to be $70.

Because it was billed through insurance, the provider's hands are tied in terms of further negotiation. I would bet if I had gone in as a cash patient, I'd be much better off.

The icing on the cake is that the scoping procedure was non-conclusive.

The US healthcare insurance system is the ultimate way to make money fast, for little effort. As long as you're on the right side of it, that is.

Fuck the IDF

Apple doesn't fall far.

"Stunning" is such a sad word to use in this context.

People working at Fox News are probably still taking/passing around Buzzfeed quizzes to find out which season they are

I feel like this is having a bit of a Streisand effect.

This just kept getting sadder and sadder, RIP

I would kill myself. Unfathomable.

Recently, 3M settled the lawsuit filed by cities and towns with polluted water. It will pay up to $12.5 billion to cover the costs of filtering out PFAS, depending on how many water systems need the chemicals removed. The settlement, however, doesn’t approach the scale of the problem. At least 45% of U.S. tap water is estimated to contain one or more forever chemicals, and one drinking water expert told me that the cost of removing them all would likely reach $100 billion.

$100 billion? Seems low. That's only five renovations to JFK.

I've done a triple take to try to see what you're referring to but all I can conclude is that he has great hair. If I showered and let my hair dry it would look exactly like that.

66 bucks a day? That's twice my mortgage.

The dev being from the Netherlands adds a little sting to it, looks great
