At the risk of once again being told what an idiot I am, healthcare in America sucks. Thanks for the present though, mom. We need all the help we can get.

By the way, feel free to tell me how great my Photoshop skills are. Some people on Lemmy love to tell me how I’m not sick and just making it up for sympathy.

Sorry… is there a community for “I’ve been pissed off for months now?”

Happy birthday and get well soon. Your Photoshop is spot on and the American healthcare system is a joke. All the best from evil socialist Europe. 🖖

You would think, but those Rochester, Minnesota sandwiches are surprisingly pricey.

Also, thanks!

Having had cancer 20+ years ago as a teen I can vouch that the healthcare system here has ruined my life. Survived the stage 3 head cancer and the side effects? Wonderful! NOW PAY UP FOR THE REST OF YOUR PROGRESSIVELY WORSE LIFE! Ahh joys of unchecked capitalism.

Cancer sucks. Fuck cancer. I’m sorry you had to go through that as a teenager. That makes it even worse. I hope you found a way to manage the side effects without being in too much pain or discomfort.

We definitely are, and thanks. No worries about the downer thing, I would be telling everyone about how I was screwed over by the system and my body when the subject came up too.
