If I ever come into a random 30k, I'm spending the entirety of that shit on charts. (And thanks. It was a dumb pun from a decade back, and I decided to run with it.)

Shit, if you somehow make it through the process with 0 financial impact whatsoever, the psychic damage from months of fighting insurance is not a small thing.

I mean, the median household income is like 87k and I kind of feel like getting a random check for 1/3 of that amount would be sort of impactful. Unless dipshit is assuming that the poors would just blow all that money on lotto tickets or something and be back to where they were in a month.

And, regardless of the financial outcome, spending months or years fighting against a "paperwork error" (funny how often those seem to happen), is a harmful thing in and of itself.

I have a six month waiting period to see pretty much any doctor for any reason, and my insurance just decided that my having had anesthesia during a recent colonoscopy was a bridge too fucking far. Canada's healthcare system may be flawed and imperfect, but the US system is going to kill me.

When you justify abandoning a marginalized group by saying "we need to win," what you're actually saying is "I need to win." There is no we when you are willing to sacrifice people for the sake of *your* well-being.

The right wing framing depicts abortion as a shameful and unequivocal harm. Using pro-choice in lieu of pro-abortion accepts that framing.

The Owlbear Camus @akirathelemur.bsky.social · 6h

Surely you understand that saying "pro-abortion implies something sinister" is ceding to the right's framing of the debate?

070

The Owlbear Camus @akirathelemur.bsky.social · 7h

That would be weird indeed, since they said "pro-abortion," not "pro mandatory abortion." "Pro-abortion" simply refuses to accept the right wing framing of the argument, that treats abortion as something shameful which must be obscured by vague language.

I will say that I'm genuinely sorry that you did not receive enough attention in your formative years, which is the only explanation I can imagine for whatever the fuck it is you're doing here. Good luck with your windmills, little dude.

Being Jewish, I fully understand the intergenerational trauma we have suffered over the years. Zionism is still racism, though.

So following your idiotic analogy, when a judge recently extended the order disallowing the White House from revoking CNN,Político, etc.. access to the White House, they were essentially granting said networks the right to sexually assault Trump? That's wild, man. Absolutely fucking wild.

I'm sorry. I don't recall that "do not bear witness against genocide" was included in one of our covenants with God. Was it perhaps in a footnote?

Even the mindlessly psychotic terminator murder drones of Khhhhhhamahs say this.

Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion

16. Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity.

There's also a big old honking gap between returning to Jerusalem and establishing a colony therein that does a bit of a genocide against the folk living there.

And, sidenote, this is one reason why mutual aid is so important. It addresses the immediate suffering (to an extent), but also creates models for alternate structures that may be used as part of, or in the wake of, a systemic solution.

The proper American history event to compare to 10/7 was Nat Turner's Rebellion. What we are witnessing from Israelis and their Zionist allies the fear we saw from slave owners at a slave uprising, suddenly afraid their whole system of inequality will come crashing down and their evils come due.

The Owlbear Camus @akirathelemur.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

And the work to help people right now should not be framed as mere "harm reduction" that distracts from long term systematic solutions. That line of thinking is what allows people to dismiss someone asking for help with a blithe statement about contributing to a charity for the unhoused.
