  • Roommate has COPD, a bad shoulder, and the start of a cataract in his left eye. But he’s still fully capable of driving.

    His sister already had a double lung transplant, and she’s suffering from arthritis, to the point she can’t even take care of her own hair or hygiene…

    I worry every time he drives away without me, as the truck only properly seats two. Me, roommate, his sister, and our dog equals 4…

    At least the truck seems to be running well, but it still worries me every time he’s gotta drive far without me. If only their healthcare services were available within a sensible distance…




  • Can you elaborate on your negative opinion on disabled people?

    Your negative comment got me to thinking and realizing, that my roommate has to travel 72 miles (one way, double that to 144 miles both ways), at least twice a month, to his healthcare provider, in his truck. There’s no buses around here either.

    To make matters worse, he also has to take his family members around for doctor visits. Half the time out of state. Why out of state? Health insurance…

    My job? Keep the truck running.

    My question? Why the fuck does health insurance force people to drive so fucking far? Shit, we got a local healthcare facility within bicycle riding distance, but they only cover people actively working for one of the war machine manufacturing factories…

    I do think that my question regarding the healthcare system heavily ties into the whole transportation problem.

    What do? My job is just to keep the vehicle running, not to drive it…


  • I look up in the sky and see a dot flying through the sky.

    I can’t identify it, so by definition, it is a UFO (Unidentified Flying Object).

    Also, the moon landing was indeed staged, that’s how staged rockets work.

    And of course aliens exist, they’re sadly being deported every day…

    So, when people speak of aliens, they should make a hard distinguishment between the terms ‘alien’ and ‘extraterrestrial’
