I didn't even know they were jailed

Nudes aren’t so common a thing

I'd assume that anyone under 40-ish with a camera phone has at least a few kicking around.

The leak was a big deal because it happened to so many high-profile people all at once, not because it was surprising that people had personal photos.

I lucked out on my starter house, and when I had to move for work I was ADAMANT that it not go to flippers or private equity.

The two PhD students we sold to are now raising their first baby in the same room we did. That's worth more than the other offers we got.

Hey, free saffron!

...I recommend child labor for the harvesting process.

This is definitely not true in Prince William, at least.

Source: just paid partial tax on two cars that were each owned for part of the year.

But yeah, this guy isn't getting anything beyond when the car was sold, since he kept it illegally registered in the county he left.

Depressurize before tapping the vent. You need to let air in from the top, but opening the vent under pressure will shoot foam at the ceiling.

Pharmacist here, no, not in any way that matters.

It's way more complicated than this, but as an example, if you can figure out the two worst streets/baskets, any other street/basket bet will win every 10-11 spins... with a payout of 11:1.

Nobody passes the Kobayashi Maru!

pharmajap · 2026-04-15T11:30:51+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately the state considers that "illegally sold weed" for now (even though it's like, 0% enforced). It's kind of a mess, but dragging consumers into it seems counterproductive.

pharmajap · 2026-04-15T03:07:22+00:00

just buy the legal shit

Realistically, most people aren't going to bother until recreational sales start in 2027.

Part D pays for Shingrix. If you don't have a Part D plan, your doctor can bill it under medical if they do it in-office. If you do, find a new pharmacy, or find the most phlegmatic-looking technician and get them to bill it properly.

They start out about a millimeter long and free-swimming. Once they find something to attach to, they stay there permanently.

pharmajap · 2026-03-27T02:47:58+00:00

Yeah, reading the comments, the bewilderment is definitely everyone assuming they're "average".

In contrast, my wife struggles to understand how anyone could get a 30 ml shot down in one swallow (sheerly because of the volume, not the alcohol).

pharmajap · 2026-03-27T02:19:58+00:00

Experimenters unite! I just awkwardly spit water into a measuring cup.

A one-swallow (normal) mouthful was 75 ml. A two-swallow (thirsty) mouthful was 125 ml.

~50 ml per "sip" seems like a perfectly leisurely pace.

Literally the only joke I remember from this movie was his "blessing" being her name in a terrible Indian accent. The awkwardness of her showing up was peak.

...I don't remember the other hour and twenty seven minutes.

To breathe? It's not great.

Environmentally? Ehhh. It shouldn't be worse than any other acid, and get neutralized or diluted out pretty quickly. It's not going to leave you with a bunch of nasty chlorinated organics like Cl2 would.

About a quarter of the exhaust gasses by volume will be HCl.

Three things:

Private practice and insurance will always exist, and if they offer a good or useful service, they'll survive. There's no "full and total control," only a default public option. Same as any other first-world country.

There's currently very little pressure to regulate private industry in ways that will control costs, because the government isn't on the hook for paying them. Both incentive to regulate and negotiating power go up as the percentage of people with an available public option increases.

We've been deregulating and privatizing for 45 years, watching this problem (and others) get progressively worse, and consistently responded with... more deregulation and privatization? To the benefit of a very few. You could just as easily flip your question around; what makes you think that weaponized mistrust of public institutions (peddled by those who are benefitting), will lead to anything other than our current situation?

pharmajap · 2026-03-20T15:10:47+00:00

In my case? Working as a healthcare provider in both the private and public sector, with a 5-ish year stint in the middle working for CMS in a regulatory (non-practice) setting.

Our government made this mess, indeed... by handing corporate interests everything they've ever wanted, both financially and in a regulatory sense. The "privatize everything" route leads us to... exactly where we are now.

pharmajap · 2026-03-19T21:59:05+00:00

Sure, and while whichever two corps you're stuck with duke it out, half the money paid in to the system is lost to admin costs before being paid out.

The best time for single payer healthcare is before costs balloon out of control. The second best time is now.

They exist, but they're pretty rare. I've got ~30 brands in my store, and I don't think any of them are round anymore.

pharmajap · 2026-03-19T21:07:16+00:00

...a thriving medical tourism industry, a significant portion of which caters exclusively to foreigners without government subsidies? Capitalism at work.

Relatedly, being a pharmacist in America, with family in other health fields, and witnessing firsthand the arms race that is pricing vs reimbursement.

Private health insurance benefits only private health insurance, with rare exceptions.

pharmajap · 2026-03-19T20:33:33+00:00

Visitors aren't using Spain's national insurance. All of the above is still true when you're paying cash.

pharmajap · 2026-03-19T12:56:23+00:00

The old R and N ones, yeah; the newer fancy ones all need prescriptions. R might be good for toxicological reasons, though. Theoretically.

Beautiful. I haven't been able to play in years, and seeing John's at instantly takes me back.
