Speaking as someone familiar with healthcare, here is an exemplar of a frequent flyer dependent on Medicaid.

And yet.

This is 2025. I’m no longer expected to read past the initial headline.

(Seriously, I’ll read, but I can’t do vid at work.)

Salmon jello, if you’re going by old cookbooks.

What’s he going to do, pave it?

The same basic, 2x4, light trucks, no frills, Nissan Frontier and Chevy Colorado have increased from $19k to $29k, last check, between 2019 and 2024. 4 cylinder, “truck shaped sedan” models, in terms of capacity and the ability to fit in any parking space.

That’s quite a reduction in MSRP.

Wage increases are not there. You typing it feels like a Mike Johnson sound byte. Jobs that paid $20-$24 in 2019 still pay $20-24 in 2025. Federal minimum wage remains at $7.25/hr, or $1160 a month for 40h/wk.

I’ll grant you, healthcare saw a jump, but with Covid, had it not, more of the work force would have switched careers. Most of those hourly personnel had not seen much in the way of pay increases since pre-2008, until Covid.

I basic light truck ran $19k in 19. A sedan, $14k.

Wages haven’t gone up.

It’s classic Cluster B Personality.

I have nothing against soul searching for personal betterment. That’s cool. It’s bizarre that it’s considered “professional” when an accountant, nurse practitioner, and social worker are not.

Men who can’t handle their own feelings or learn to define themselves as individuals separate from a woman. And don’t have the wherewithal to enroll in therapy to figure it out.

That is MAGA. A reaction to women’s lib.

That is how the 1950s worked. Women were shut out of the workplace in favor of men due to the GI Bill.

It’s how we created a generation of angry, addicted, or tissue paper thin women, back in the day.

Nursing is a no, but theology is a yes.

They’re rolling back women’s lib, one step at a time. We had 50 years. We weren’t even there yet and they’re taking it away from us.

Cluster B is gonna Cluster B. The hallmark of these personality disorders is an alternative reality. Secondary to that aspect is the profound level of gaslighting in response to denying that alternative reality.

I expect nothing less from Trump. The non cluster B people around him playing that game are far worse. They actually know better.

Cankles like that aren’t flabby. They’re tight and spongy with serous fluid, like what you find in a blister. In extreme cases that fluid does form blisters and can weep puddles onto the floor.

This is not a healthy man.

We’re waiting on this release, but at this point, will the genuine article be released after those two representatives are sworn in?

Portland?

The cankles are low hanging fruit, but, we need to normalize more slap back.

We’re all waiting for proof. Headlines like this one are stale.

I can’t imagine they’ll release anything of substance. Look at the juvenile graffiti level writing on the White House web page. They can write or fabricate anything they like and call it the Epstein files. With sharpie or otherwise.

Platforming bigots? I missed that part.

He’s basically Hillary, but California, yes.

It needs to be someone not buried in donor class money. Period.

This is a class war.
