Well the president decided to stand by (at best) or enable (at worst) a genocide of a people. So yeah thanks, but those sunny days seem a bit bleak right now.
It should have been Bernie - and yet I and every Bernie voter I know are hell-bent on voting Biden. Because no Bernie voter who isn’t a troll or a moron thinks that Trump will improve the status of the left-wing in this country.
I hate these Very Concerned Voters™ online who push these purity tests.
Oh right, it’s an election year so we’re not allowed to feel bad things about a generally lame president. We gotta suck down the blue flavoraid or else the red flavor aid drinking idiots might scootch closer to winning.
Forget about actually doing anything though. Let’s just gaslight each other until he suddenly seems like a decent president.
So tired of people acting like because I shit on Biden I think Trump is better. All of our options are garbage and I’m not going to pretend that isn’t the case. Yeah, I voted for Biden and I will again. That doesn’t mean I’m happy about it.
Am also agreeing with the Elmo that Biden Genocide Joe is not strong candidate for president. Voting will only encourage weak peoples. A strong leader as Trump or great president Putin loves the freedom not a genocide like Bidenski.

A real time peak at what happens many years after selling out the health of your citizens so that insurers can generate money off of misery.
Been looking at therapists for my teenage daughter, she’s been debating therapy for a couple of years and has recently fully committed.
We have good insurance and are financially secure, and holy shit it’s still going to cost an extraordinary amount. I don’t understand how anyone struggling with financial insecurity could even consider having access to therapy as an option.
What a fundamentally broken system, there is not a single type of care that exists that is accessible to the people who need it.
Think about it this way: the payments you’re making for insurance, that they aren’t reciprocating in terms of service coverage (their only fucking job), is providing a very needy owner with another private island! You’re making the world a happier place as one person can now have multiple islands to lounge on while their corporation does the actual work of syphoning your money for them!
Hashtag SilverLinings!
:P
Check the HR, insurance extras or employee perks whatever page or call the insurance about Behavioral Health programs. Some companies (not enough by far) have some free or lower cost providers in those programs. Not just EAP, which is also a great offering, just usually not long term. Some, it may just be “virtual in-network visits” are discounted over “in person” visits or something simple. A common obe I see is ~5-8 free w/the matched provider then it rolls into the benefit payments if you keep them going.
Its all a very dumb game and I try to pass along any “tricks” I can find to make the system remotely usable. If anyone has any, throw 'em my way!
As someone who is indeed struggling with financial insecurity, on top of depression, anxiety, and I’m pretty sure adult ADD, it sucks a great deal. My spouse also has similar issues, and so we try to just find the joy in our kids, but I’m worried about passing our issues on to the kids. I truly don’t know what to do at this point.
Just wait for the 23AndMe liquidation sale.
They’re financially fucked and your genome is going to get sold out to advertisers and life insurance companies.
“Wow! Elmo is glad he asked! Elmo learned that it is important to ask a friend how they are doing. Elmo will check in again soon, friends! Elmo loves you. #EmotionalWellBeing”
Elmo lying. Elmo sorry he asked, just wanted to sell more junk. Existential dread no good for selling junk! And slogans not further good policies!
HBO/Discovery has an exclusivity deal, which expires in 2025. The show is owned by Sesame Workshop. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/sesame-street-hbo-max-pbs-deal-1235252239/
Anyone remember when Elmo first started showing up and the horrible truth that Sesame Street was dead and would never wake up sunk in?
Jesus Christ that’s the worst website I’ve had the displeasure to visit all year :(
