It goes up depending on adjusted gross income; it can hit as much as $600/month. I'm destitute so my premium is basically $0, but my brother does decently well and his is like $280. And yeah, it's certainly not gonna happen before November and almost certainly not ever.

90 bucks isn't a bribe. It's barely a tip. It's like 10 days of Medicare Part B premiums.

She got $38 billion in cash and shares from the divorce, she's given away $26 billion, and in January she had a net worth of $40 billion, which has since slipped to $36 billion and change (where "change"=$400,000,000). Doing alright! And I'm guessing she doesn't pay a lot of income tax.

The urgency of professional douchebag Michael Tracey's impulse to attack rape victims and defend sex criminals suggests some really unsavory behavior in his past, if not his present. I mean, unsavory beyond attacking rape victims and defending sex criminals.

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: I looked up what reality show Rick Devens participated in prior to winning Big Brother, and then decided to answer the question with a question: what the hell am I doing? I don't care about this in the least little bit. In fact I *anti* care.

Let’s see, why would anybody want to build a white Christian nationalist-oriented military led by people with a demonstrated willingness to obey and issue illegal orders, and whose loyalty is to the civilian leadership rather than the constitution and the military justice code. ‘‘Tis a mystery.

I wish I could get some traction with my proposed constitutional amendment mandating a minimum five-year post-presidency prison term. Would have prevented the current situation, and would give civic-minded folks the breathing room to pursue more permanent sanctions. No more looking forward not back.

I listen to some country, not a lot, but I definitely don't listen to country radio, which is not at all the same thing as not listening to country. I don't guess this singer is in heavy rotation with people like Steve Earle or Lucinda Williams anyway. youtu.be/w8e9sy02AS0?...

I had a coke dealer who encouraged responsible behavior on my part and sometimes took my money more in sorrow than in glee. I'd be like, sell me a quarter, I'm going to sell half of it and break even, and he'd say, no you're not, here you go.

My answer to the @MuckRack Daily trivia question: Publick Occurrences, Both Forreign and Domestick lasted one issue before a thin-skinned addle-pated chief executive took offense at something they published and 86'd it from the public sphere, no doubt shouting FAKE NEWS! FAKE NEWS!

I thought about that from time to time. I lived in a brick two-story pre-war apartment building in a part of the city that probably hadn't changed all that much since Oklahoma was written. Had steam heat, too, although probably not the original boiler.

An increasingly rare sighting of The Bad Crow Review, featuring applause for the White House press corpse's delicate applause for the few among their colleagues who have done more than fuck-all to stand against the regime's assault on a free press. Plus music! badcrow.substack.com/p/97-of-the-...

I'm gonna guess that Francis and Pierre did not pronounce it "peer." I lived in Kansas City for two years, just before I fled the continent. Despite the weather and the intermittently crippling depression, it's still in my top urban locales where I've lived.

I got it from my mother, for whom English was a third language until her mid-teens when she was brought to the US. I suppose she got it from her mother, who had English as a fourth language until they moved here. The living room and parlor in Babi's apartment were overrun with hassocks.

I've not had a hassock in some years, but when I did I called them hassocks. There was a time when I got irritated with people who called them footstools. It's not a footstool it's a hassock. Come closer so I can take this ruler to your knuckles, heathen.

If people had only rallied behind my decades-long crusade for a constitutional amendment mandating a minimum five-year post-presidential prison term, Trump would have gone down in February of 2021 and only resurfaced in February 2026 at the earliest. We would have been spared all this.
