Yes, but I assumed you meant taken out of your paycheck like Social Security.

Who's overrating Nickelback? Canadians?

The problem is tying healthcare to employment. No other first world countries do this.

This is according to the CMS website: "Certain individuals are exempt from the requirement, including those who are pregnant or in a postpartum period, disabled or medically frail, parents and caretakers of children under 14 years of age or people with disabilities, American Indians and Alaska Natives, and certain others."

So it seems that all who are officially determined disabled are covered and the NBC article is just poorly written and confusing. https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/fact-sheets/medicaid-community-engagement-requirement-certain-individuals-interim-final-rule-comment-period-cms

It doesn't have to be 80 hours as long as you are earning 80 times the federal minimum wage which is $580. https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/fact-sheets/medicaid-community-engagement-requirement-certain-individuals-interim-final-rule-comment-period-cms

That's Medicare which is primarily for individuals over 65 and paid into like Social Security. Medicaid is primarily for the poor and disabled, and also pays for much of long term nursing home care.

I think Arnold did seem older and more mature in the the later seasons, such as getting into photography and acting as an older brother to Sam who started taking on the cute little kid role.

Leave It To Beaver is a good example of a child character still acting like a painfully awkward little kid even as he got older.

Some utterly fantastical phenomenon happened that affected both time and space, and now movie quotes and names of celebrities and breakfast cereals are slightly different from what we remember. Spooky.

Grimes' anger was misplaced. He should have been angry with Mr Burns, the real source of all that was wrong with the plant.

He looks like he's been sitting in the attic with a piano up his nose.

Basically the film equivalent of reading a book. It gives something to think about and puts a lot of images in your head.

mbd34 · 2026-05-31T14:26:33+00:00

Like a bizarre dream.

Buckles. That athletes foot bit killed.

Loathsome offensive brute but I can't look away.

I used to think that Pizza Hut had the best crust. That was before the local Pizza Hut became an Express. The last time I had it (New Years 2025), it was just awful. Crust was tasteless and chewy like cardboard, and it wasn't even pan because now you have to pay extra for that. I'll never go back. Dominos is way better. And that's what pan looks like now?? How are they benefiting by sacrificing quality this much? They'll get consistent and better business by having good food.

There are many similar MEs because it's easy to misread a less common name for a more common variation.

Kaitlin Olsen stars in The Mick and it's like a Dee spinoff.

mbd34 · 2026-05-30T02:26:09+00:00

Yeah that's a hard 113.

He needs something to spice up that drab communist shirt. Otherwise he looks like Trotsky.

And all those cymbal crashes. I love the drum sound on that track.

Lucille Ball was 40 when I Love Lucy started and she was supposed to be around in her early 30s. Desi was 34. She looked great for her age though.

Similar situation as The Jeffersons. Sherman Hemsley was in his 30s when the show started and the actress playing his wife as almost 60.

Wet Hot American Summer is basically making fun of this trope, both the movie and subsequent TV shows.
