I hate how everyone in healthcare (and many other industries) works for various contractors. It makes accountability nearly impossible 

Lol, unless you're a woman or black/brown person, then you just get called a drug seeker. If we're lucky, we'll get IV Tylenol after a major surgery 

I had to leave work a couple months ago because my depression has reached a point where I can no longer function. I paid my therapist the last penny I had and now I can’t pay bills or have my therapy sessions. Set up a GoFundMe which of course has been ignored by most of my friends and family who claimed they’re there…

Not that this is remotely the same situation, but my doc has to do similar things in order for my insurance to approve anything. I wrote my pain level at 7, and she said, ah so you’re at an 8 *wink wink* otherwise I can’t treat you. She knows I have depression, but told me not to mention it in any paperwork, as they…

Exactly. Take something mediocre and make it better! I've been a huge Star Trek fan all my life, and subjecting myself to Picard has been so depressing. 

I get it if someone doesn't like Matthew Perry, but I don't understand the point of looking at 90s sitcoms through the lense of 2022 and getting mad at him based on that 

Seriously. My family went from upper middle class to the working poor because they spent everything to get me the help I needed. I'm not gonna begrudge anyone for spending whatever is needed. I don't know what the tweet said, but as someone who went to a free state run rehab, and a luxury one for the rich, I'd be dead…

Should have kept reading before making my own comment cause this is essentially what I think too

Reminds me of my mom who died in 2011. She had ALS and one of the first things she said was, why is this happening to me and not someone like Donald Trump? I miss her more than words can ever express, but given what she said, I’m grateful she passed before Trump came down that escalator and announced his candidacy.

Do you know why Jews are overly represented in production in Hollywood and music? Because they were literally barred from other jobs. Christians were told not to work jobs involved with money lending and the entertainment industry, so Jews took those jobs, but now people think it's some conspiracy to gain control 

Yup, the crack down on prescribed opioids has only led to move addiction and death. Who could have seen that coming!? Ugh. More and more people are dying and my aunt was given Tylenol and Motrin following a leg amputation. Really makes me furious 

Also, I gotta say I'm surprised Jezebel hasn't had a post on the Sacheen Littlefeather fiasco. That kind of stuff is y'all's bread and butter 

I find this so gross. Between having a small child bid 10s of thousands at auctions and giving her song writing credits and a Grammy, there's no way this kid is going to have any kind of humility as an adult. All rich kids have similar things like huge homes, amazing vacations, the best schools, etc, but this is…

This is foul. I don’t see how this girl can grow up to be anything other than a pretentious ego maniac. Giving a 7 year old song writing credits which in turn gives her more money than many hard working people will make in a lifetime? Having her get in bidding wars with other millionaires? It's so gross. All rich kids…

You do realize Latino is an ethnicity, not a race? White Latinos exist. Martin Sheen is Latino but he's also obviously a white man 

She may campaign for Dems, but she's also friends with Ivanka. And how much money does she actually contribute to the causes she claims to care so much about? If millionaires and billionaires can't put their money where their mouths are, I don't give AF what platitudes they have their assistants type out on social…

This is what Bernie was worried about but apparently that just made him a misogynist 

Considering that foreign volunteers have to sign a contract stating they'll stay and fight until the end of war, I imagine he did use his last name to get out of Ukraine when he was done being a "tourist" soldier 

She'll freeze out any friend to suggest it. She doesn't even care about having a relationship with her children. I'm hoping after a period of lashing out that she'll realize her rage and me-first attitude isn't serving her but I'm not holding my breath. Really feel for her kids. The fact that even people here were…

Ugh enough of the damn “you reap what you sow” or “no sympathy” for people who haven’t always been liberal democrats. Ever since I was a little kid, I always put myself in other people’s shoes so I also get frustrated that so many people can’t have compassion for someone until they are affected themselves. But I’d…
