It should be called “dental discount plan” not dental insurance.  

Wow...you sure read a whole lot into, “there’s a kid in the commercial.”

I remember seeing the ad on TV and being more interested in what Peloton is rather than any thought that the husband was being an asshole. How do we know the wife didn’t spend the previous three months ranting about how much she wanted one? I mean, her reaction is one of appreciation and not, “you think I’m FAT?!?”

I…

This person gets it.

That looks AMAZING. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe!

Good to know incels and black people have something in common.

Canadian here. 15 years ago I had weird numbness in my hands and feet, numbness that was slowly getting worse and affecting a larger area. About two months after I saw my primary doctor, and with lots of tests in between to rule things out, I was seeing a specialist is neuromuscular diseases, and by the end of that…

Progress if not perfect is bad....?

This is a shit take. Yes, let’s discourage workers’ rights because not all groups have equal access to it. This is exactly how conservatives argue against all types of labor protections, including affirmative action. With how overworked Americans are, it’s galling that you’d argue against any workers NOT taking as…

“we want men to change their behavior” but also “stop encouraging men to change their behavior”. Doesn’t seem like the way to go about it.

If you chose to save Kanye over Michael Jackson’s music we cannot be friends, you are DUMB

Boy oh boy, THIS. Right wingers always want to talk about how public healthcare would bring the Orwellian hellscape of long wait times to see a specialist... we see it in our own healthcare system! I have great private insurance, still had to wait 3 months for a dermatologist appointment to get some scary ass cancer…

I love these campaign ads telling me not to vote for that guy because then I’ll have to wait a long time to see a doctor.

They support it because the Prosperity Gospel/Just World Fallacy is really strong in American Christianity and the American right wing. If you’re poor or sick, it’s because of some failing on your part, and only you should be responsible for the consequences. They don’t want anyone to get anything they don’t…

Wait time for my kid to see a gastroenterologist 6- 8 weeks.

Took me two months to get an appointment with my gyn (who I love) for my well-woman visit this year. Took me FIVE months to see a dermatologist a few years ago. (I started laughing when the guy making the appointment told me that. He was like “I know, I’m sorry.”)
