Let me get this straight, not only are we angry when people are heavy utilizers -- whether because of bad health or moral hazard -- but now we're also angry about low utilizers who are just paying into the system and not using resources?

Discworld QOTD, from Wintersmith
It was lonely on the hill, and cold. And all you could do was keep going. You could scream, cry, and stamp your feet, but apart from making you feel warmer, it wouldn’t do any good. You could say it was unfair, and that was true, but the universe didn’t care because it didn’t know what “fair” meant. That was the big problem about being a witch. It was up to you. It was always up to you.

The gutting of Scientific American has been painful to watch. If this trend continues — and it looks like it will — even more science communicators and reporters will migrate to independent platforms as legacy media outlets falter. www.whatsitlike.me/the-story-sc...

Buck Owens and Roy Clark were great musicians. Just pointing that out because they hosted Hee Haw, which was once on CBS, and was indisputably a higher quality show that whatever this shit is supposed to be.

This is a very interesting piece and I would bet that I have friends who would stand firm on a couple of these characters being actual "nice guys". They probably loved the Luke & Laura storyline on General Hospital in the late 70s/early 80s and would defend that too. 😑

When Kim Hyun Sook started college in 1983 she was ready for her world to open up. After acing her exams and sort-of convincing her traditional mother that it was a good idea for a woman to go to college, she looked forward to soaking up the ideas of Western Literature far from the drudgery she was promised at her family’s restaurant. But literature class would prove to be just the start of a massive turning point, still focused on reading but with life- or-death stakes she never could have imagined. This was during South Korea's Fifth Republic, a military regime that entrenched its power through censorship, torture, and the murder of protestors In this charged political climate, with Molotov cocktails flying and fellow students disappearing for hours and returning with bruises, Hyun Sook sought refuge in the comfort of books. When the handsome young editor of the school newspaper invited her to his reading group, she expected to pop into the cafeteria to talk about Moby Dick, Hamlet, and The Scarlet Letter. Instead she found herself hiding in a basement as the youngest member of an underground banned book club. And as Hyun Sook soon discovered, in a totalitarian regime, the delights of discovering great works of illicit literature are quickly overshadowed by fear and violence as the walls close in.
