From the article

Cultured skin, as they put it, can heal itself, carry biological sensors like our own to provide sensitive touch, and could also have benefits in medical or human interaction contexts.

That doesn't sound like a problem with socialized medicine, so much as a problem with Canada's socialized healthcare system.

Like I'm pretty sure their right wing has been doing everything they can to dismantle their healthcare system. That's definitely going to reduce the speed and quality of care.

I'm horrified to ask, but what do you mean?

My city has one or two trans bars. Cis people are allowed of course. But most of the clientele is some flavor trans or nonbinary.

It makes me feel so much less conspicuous when I look out at the crowd and realize I don't stick out at all. I imagine this could serve a similar function to fat people who want to go to the beach.

Don't forget to save some blame for the CIA destabilizing South American governments and terrible living conditions for a huge percentage of the population.

But that's a good description of that series, or at least the first book. So it's a pretty bad, bad description.

That's a great way to just give the facists more power due to the spoiler effect. Until first past the post is abolished the most a third party can accomplish is cannibalizing whatever party they most closely align with.

The coolest thing about Pokemon, to me, was how all those creatures are also completely safe and easy to take care of as pets, and very easily domesticated by a 10 year old.

Like, fuck earth. I want a pet bear that fights for me.

For real. There should be full tuitions for nursing school for anyone who can keep their grades up. Same for medical school.

We need more doctors and nurses. We shouldn't be turning people away just because they don't have money.

In sweeping change, Biden administration to ban medical debt from credit reports | The rule, first reported by ABC News, could go into effect sometime next year. ( abcnews.go.com )

For context, the poor credit ratings which go with medical debt are concentrated in the south, where states have limited the reach of medical safety-net programs.:...

Socialized healthcare seems like a stretch, but definitely a step in the right direction.

Demand for medical care is far less elastic than demand for a lot of other things you would use credit for.

The fact that someone failed to repay exploitative medical bills for a procedure they needed to continue living isn't particularly indicative of how likely they are to be delinquent on a car loan, for example.

Fuck the original is great.

Does Trump being found guilty actually matter?

Since he can still run for office and become president while in prison, is this actually going to do anything to stop him from being president? Obviously it's not gonna sway anyone who's gonna vote for him, so is there any actual way this keeps him from office, or at least has some positive effect for us? I wanna join the...

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, if they were already going to vote for him, the only way to sway them is to not.

Both Democrats and Republicans have a vested interest in keeping the system as it is. They won't change it unless citizens make them change it.

Honestly I'm kind of losing hope that it's even possible at this point.

Putting your fingers in your ears to drown out the sound of the Overton window screeching to the right is a much better alternative.

The speed cameras aren't there to keep anyone safe, they're there to collect revenue.

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah, but I can counter the guy who 's speeding, SLAMS on his breaks right before the camera, then floors it once he's past.

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

The guy that starts speeding is a danger to everyone around them. A lot of the time that speeding includes erratically weaving between other cars, even if they barely have the room to get through.

I feel like most of the hexbear users I've run into live up to their negative reputation. Maybe the communities I see just bring out the worst users from that server for some reason.

That's the same as not voting.

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

Why drive to a polling location to throw your vote away then?

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

No sweetheart, America uses first past the post voting. Voting third party is straight up just throwing your ballot on the trash.

OneWomanCreamTeam ,
@OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works avatar

The system is designed to enforce a two party system. If you and people who agree with you start to vote third party then the party you disagree with the MOST gets an advantage. It's called the spoiler effect.

In order to get rid of the two part system you have to get rid of first past the post voting.

This video explains the whole thing pretty well.
