This is the eugenics for the elderly and disabled clause. Medicaid is the primary insurance of those on SSI disability. Meaning those who have not been able to work enough in their lifetime to qualify for SSDI and Medicare. It also is what pays for nursing homes for the elderly.

The important thing is to make sure TFG stays TFG so that those of us targeted by the fascists have a shot at surviving. The GOP loves the fact that they have Democrats fighting instead.

I should mention I'm watching Blue Lights on Britbox. Enjoying it, except for the disracting contact lenses. I'm sure they all have beautiful eyes in their own right.

The show I am watching is very fond of tinted contact lenses to make the character's eyes more captivating. But I can tell they are contacts, and one guy especially must have dry eyes because the lenses shift whenever he blinks. It is so distracting!

Wow. I did smoke in my late teens because one used to receive more breaks if they did.

Somehow, even though I have put in the corrections multiple times, and have had several doctors say they are putting it in, I still show up in the hospital's system as having an opioid scrip. Nope, that was an acute injury in 2012, and I was given 5 days worth.

I have asked for an antiemetic so I don't exacerbate the pain by being sick. Sometimes this opens a door to actual medical assistance. Sometimes they give me the antiemetics, which at least make the agony less messy.

Yes! I have a textbook case of something that is **really common** with my genetic condition. It's always blamed on stress, or I am accused of eating too much red meat (red meat increases my joint pain, so I almost never eat it). Hate spending thousands to be treated like crap.

Like the doctor who wouldn't allow me to have any pain management after major surgery and told me to take Dramamine if the "discomfort" was keeping me awake.

So ridiculous, and even if it *could* be unloaded like that, plenty of people with ovaries would be completely happy to donate it anyway. What is also disturbing, though, is the way that people now believe a hospital can do whatever it wants to women.

I haven't seen Summer of Sam since it came out in theatres in 1999. I remembered it being full of attractive people who were all older than myself. I tried rewatching it, and now they all look so young!

This had BETTER NOT be a "Hello. I am doctor. Your other doctor says you need surgery. Let's schedule it." for over $600. But I have zero faith in the American healthcare system.

My new patient consult w/ the surgeon will cost me $318 up-front, as the insurance will only cover 1/2. We all know how these things work. You get a consult, and then they schedule you to come in again and again. If they charge this every single time, there is no way I can do it.

Also apropos of it being disability pride month - another easy thing you can do to make your social media posts more accessible is to use camel case, effectively capitalising each word in hashtags. This is easier for everyone to read and can be processed by screen reading software.

Watching the British election returns I feel compelled to point out that the 650 person House of Commons represents 67 million people and the 435 person House of Representatives in the United States represents 333 million. Replace the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. We deserve representation.

Having a lot of thoughts this week about parasociality and how overidentification with public figures and their work results in a reflexive rejection of accusations of wrongdoing not just because it shatters an illusion, but because it feels like a personal attack.

right wing think tanks are making thinly veiled threats of political violence, the Supreme Court has neutralized the regulatory power of broad swaths of government, and the fate of the executive branch depends on whether the 81 year old atop it can learn to breakdance or something. Happy July 4th

It is incredibly difficult to focus when the world is falling to pieces and you're meeting a surgeon in a few days for something that has a 50% chance of being malignant.
