One healthcare reform I would push for as an internal medicine physician:
When a private health insurer refuses to cover medically necessary treatment and that decision causes a patient harm, the insurance company should face the same medical malpractice liability as the healthcare professionals responsible for treating that patient.
You shouldn’t be able to make decisions that jeopardize someone’s life and walk away without accountability.
Texas was 4th in education the last time they had a Democrat as governor. It was the Republicans that destroyed the schools on purpose.
My son has spina bifida and seeing @turek4iowa win his race for US Senate was massively inspiring for him.
We have some of the brightest minds in the world here. We can figure this out.
For those who say it’s time for universal care. I am all for it. It would be nice if we could find a way to reduce the cost of care and make it available to everyone, for anything.
But it will take work to get there. Other countries with Universal Care make “Most Things available to All People”. It’s not perfect.
In our country, we make “Everything available to Most People”.
The question for this country, unlike others, is how we can make the best possible care and therapies, regardless of cost, to everyone ?
Read @AbdulElSayed ‘s book on Medicare for All. He wisely had more questions than answers. Medicare for All ? Global Budgets ? Or something else ?
It’s a difficult path from where we are to “E4E” Healthcare. ?Everything for Everyone)
My hope is that we can put together a Simpson Bowles type, Blue Ribbon Commission. One that includes representatives of all stakeholders. From all different type of patients. Including rare disease parents. Rural and Urban Hospitals. The most expensive hospitals that offer unique care. Pharma companies that offer everything from genetics to Cell and Gene Therapies. You get the point
Some people think we can just tell all those working in the healthcare system what to do.
That’s the fastest way for this to fail. We need to be as close as we can to being on the same page. And we need to figure out a non partisan manner of running our American version of Universal Care.
No reason we can’t start now
Stop. I can only get so erect.
Democrats won enough trifectas last night to theoretically obtain an absolute majority of the electoral college for the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, and they certainly have Congressional majorities large enough to authorize such a compact.
The only question is whether it would survive a court challenge. If they win the Presidency in 2028 and stack the Supreme Court as many Dems have threatened to do the moment they have the votes, there’s a chance that we will never again have Presidential elections in America decided by the Electoral College.
I do not think people fully understand yet that Democrats won enough elections last night to permanently change this country in a way that may make things impossible to ever undo.
Political parties operate off incentives. Their goal is to win elections, not permanently pander to a specific demographic constituency. While they can spend years or even decades in the wilderness, eventually, someone will look at the median voter and determine that he too can win an election by pandering to everyone to the Left or Right of that individual.
So what happens when one side of the equation permanently changes the rules so that the median voter shifts from someone living in Ohio to say someone living in Virginia?
The Beautiful Losers may not immediately return to power tomorrow, but make no mistake they are quietly waiting in the wings, hoping that Democrats change the rules of the American electoral process in order to permanently enshrine them as the natural controlled opposition.

I totally understand where she’s coming from BUT, and I’m only speaking for myself here, I’d immediately take her to the bedroom. As a married man with two kids, I take any and every opportunity I possibly can.
Ok lads: imagine you aren’t horny at all. Not even slightly. You’re busy fixing a shelf or ironing your suit or watching your favourite TV show. Zero sexy feelings. Your girlfriend sighs loudly and goes “can we have sex now” in whingy voice and then grabs your ass. She then sulks and starts whining when you aren’t instantly aroused and into it and starts saying you haven’t had sex for 3 days.
Annoying? Not very sexy?
GOOD YOU UNDERSTAND WHY PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE INSTA-HORNY BEHAVIOUR IS ANNOYING

you guys seem to forget.. conservatives don't like early voting and they sure as hell hate mail-in ballots. They're all showing up tomorrow.
So blue voters, don't you fucking dare celebrate early. Y'all better show up if you didn't vote early.
There is no natural way to meaningfully increase your testosterone.
What’s up with this new type of bot? Usually they engagement farm by continuously replying but now the reply once or twice then block. Especially when proven wrong.
I reported a post of a woman full-on flashing the camera and X said it didn’t violate their rules. 🤦♂️
My total annual compensation is around $110k. That puts me in the top 20% of income earners in the U.S.
Think about that. What does that say about the country?
I don’t understand the infantilization allegation. She’s described as incredibly thin and short in the light novels due to malnutrition while growing up. She’s not as thin in the anime and they did soften her facial features a bit to make her easier to draw and animate.
