I went the NHS emergency room in London over the weekend, it was free. Free to anyone. I'd have been charged only if I was admitted to the hospital. A cart in the waiting room went by me with some nice sandwiches, and I chose one. Before I could try to pay, the cart moved on. Sandwich also free.

A day after Trump said his super PAC would pay for those propaganda ads that had been funded by taxpayers, White House officials said the group did *not* plan to reimburse the government for the more than $10 million it had already spent on the ads.

Trump Does Not Plan to Reimburse Taxpayers for Promotional Ads
A day after the president said his super PAC would pay for the ads, which had drawn bipartisan backlash, officials said that he meant moving forward. A new taxpayer-funded ad aired Tuesday.

Well, now that P is on SSDI, he makes "too much $" to qualify for Medicaid. He won't be able to get on Medicare until Feb 27. So we have to pay for an unsubsidized health plan for him for 4 mos, complete with huge co-pays for all the specialists he sees nearly every month. 14 prescriptions.

I am sorry for my NOLA buds for the catastrophe Domecoming. I was a "sports fan" 20 yrs ago (because of a guy, of course), and I remember being so moved by that game. I'd already moved to Lou, and friends and I gathered at the Back Door RIP to watch. I wish tonight had been better for you.

I've read articles in the past few days about 2 "famous-ish" people my age/younger who have either died or been severely incapacitated by a stroke. So today, when I developed a headache uncharacteristically acute for me... you know where my brain immediately went. Fun brain you got there, M.

Goddamn, Ted Lasso. C'mon now. A dangerous pregnancy and a massive main-ish character death, plus a post-mortem of an actual actor's death in one episode? I lean on you to be "joyful, yet poignant." Not "okay, I'm wrecked for the evening."

I have endless ENDLESS compassion for Pierre and all Haitian immigrants. Being deported to Haiti seems like a de facto death sentence. But lord, "suicide by another person," even a fucking Trump voter (which Pierre couldn't have known)... you're damning someone else to a life of bottomless grief.

Paul's having a bad health weekend and my car is in the shop, so I haven't left the house (no, I cannot drive his car-- it's an SUV and I drive a tiny Fiat). Have I been productive? Nope. Have I done a ton of chores? Nope. I made potato salad and did dishes and laundry and swept. That's it.

Yep, weekend number blah-blah where I think, "Maybe I should wander over to MidCity Mall and see a movie." Yeah, I KNOW I should've internalized that Baxter Ave Theaters is closed by now, but obviously I haven't. Hard to break a 20 yr habit. I'll die bitter about the closure.

Well, this is batshit. I try to be fairly sex-positive, but I will never understand people who get off watching someone else use the loo. Or who film normies having sex. Normie sex is messy and weird. Leave that to the porno pros, buddy. Some rich folks are bananas.

My admiration for @kumail.bsky.social ("The Big Sick" is such a unicorn movie. How could anyone not absolutely love it?) led me to watch Taskmaster S21 on the plane. Finishing it tonight. This show is 100% my sense of humor. At least this season. I'm guffawing constantly. What S should I watch next?

Oof. Just got an email from Josephine's (cat) former vet's office. They lost their office cat this week-- a rescue who arrived as a kitten with a broken pelvis and who remained incontinent all her life. It was the sweetest, most heartbreaking email. Hug your kitties. She was the same age as Jo.

What do you mean there's no new Traitors this week? Related: Anyone ever use a VPN to watch BBC? Do free VPNs exist? The idea makes me nervous. But that's kind of my thing. I was always too much of a feardy-cat to even try Napster.

A baby fur seal was spotted wandering through a busy road and alley in Wellington, New Zealand, before police moved it to a safer location. Baby seals often venture into unusual places between June and September, a period the Department of Conservation call “seal silly season.”

Shoo, in the two weeks surrounding my one-week vacation, I only worked one day each week. The Monday before we left and the Friday we got back. So this has been my first full week in 3 weeks, and I am SPENT. And tomorrow I have 4 interviews then dinner with my MAGA in-laws. Send good vibes, please.
