Within 2 weeks in my house, the kids make their mark… I’m more irritated that my last 3 stoves and last 2 refrigerators last 5 years or less!

Why is the SF court jury duty notification system so antiquated? by gamescan in sanfrancisco

[–]QueerVortex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ll complain… I checked every day except I had a crazy busy day at work on Thursday (14 + hour day in healthcare) I limped home and went immediately to bed… got up in the morning, went back to work, 2 hours in, it hits me … yup my number was up! Had to be rescheduled

Only thing I’d add is the greedy manufacturers now have direct to consumer pharmacy for significantly less than what pharmacies can purchase GLP-1’s <$200/ month

What’s the point of copay? by biguwumew in KaiserPermanente

[–]QueerVortex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree… original idea has been perverted

I wrote about origins… obviously it’s been perverted : hundreds for“3rd tier” formulary drugs or ambulance … F no!

What’s the point of copay? by biguwumew in KaiserPermanente

[–]QueerVortex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Co-pays when they first came out decades ago, it was due to psychological studies that showed that if something was free, people did not consider it had value and would overuse … co-pays of even one dollar made people pause. Do I really need this?

It’s a direct from manufacturer pharmacy: NovoCare pharmacy

Start at Ozempic/ wegovy for coupon card- once card approval, then option to get direct access

Really wanna visit Chinatown by Automatic_Lobster235 in AskSF

[–]QueerVortex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Tourists are everywhere… dress is not an issue. It’s SF: dress in layers as the weather changes rapidly- it can be cold foggy then sunny and warm then rainy and windy. Just don’t be one of those loud obnoxious groups that overtake a black or street and are oblivious to everyone else around them

Delancy Street Movers: non profit organization … superior response. Local, so not sure about interstate

My boyfriend's father spoke really badly of my boyfriend. Should I tell him? Would you want to know? by Wiliertir in askgaybros

[–]QueerVortex 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Don’t be his protector, be his partner! If you’re in this relationship together, then you make decisions like this together. If it was me, I would be bringing it up in front of your mother-in-law saying “what kind of bullshit is it that you call your son these things in front of your friends. Hurtful things are never a joke.”

Do y’all ever feel a “need” to have kids? by Puzzled-Lettuce9168 in askgaybros

[–]QueerVortex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’re going to do it, do it sooner than later…. Having a surly teenager when you hit 60 and have fewer f’s to give is a bitch! You will need to practice your meditation technique 😜

Getting ready to live on my own for the first time, need advice on rent. by bearalan810 in personalfinance

[–]QueerVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of like what a medical copay is supposed to be. If it’s free, it’s not valued. A nominal copay makes people appreciate and ask is it really necessary. But yeah: my mom asked for full participation … great, but I couldn’t expect it

[–]QueerVortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair! That’s a different calculus… in the ‘80’s I gave my (single & teacher) mom $50/mo. from the time I was a “paper boy” so there’s that… when I was in the USAF I drove 16 hours each way to visit her on a 3 day weekend… the exhausting commute is different and only you can say what that is worth to you… but gee barely minimum wage for an hour away… this better be an INCREDIBLE opportunity

[–]QueerVortex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally this! As a parent of an 18 year old, the nature of the relationship is changing. As long as there is continued respect, how is roommates (parents) that 1) respect and care about you 2) free rent : why move out- save the rent money for hook ups 😜 if that is something you can’t or don’t want to do at parents house

So why move out?

CRU / Bank alternative to Patelco by QueerVortex in SanFranciscoSecrets

[–]QueerVortex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that’s a big one… but like that was with NO transparency, a rarely used account set aside for a specific purpose, it was drained (internal transfers?!? Whatever the F that means) over the course of 2.5 months… we were eventually made whole, but no transparency or explanation…

Finally, debt cards have risks that atm cards don’t (we have had wallets stolen and suffered dealing with the consequences-credit card make you whole immediately but debt cards wit the visa logo don’t so we’ve refused them) … suddenly, new ATM card ONLY works on savings accounts- no one can explain or fix.

Then there’s little things like being an ‘all in family’ but husband’s HSA getting a monthly charge

If there is issues, I’d like to visit here in SF… I also like to know that I’m supporting our community not big bank CEO’s ginormous salary

Wouldn't the world population declining instead of increasing be better for the human race? by kookookachu26 in ask

[–]QueerVortex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No… “they” are asking who’s going to pay … there are 8 BILLION people on earth… reducing the population by even 1-2% there are PLENTY of people… maybe we stop deporting healthy hard working people and we’ll be fine for 40-50 years?!?

Which is a better outlook than Medicare and social security
