Y'all I just confirmed my ILs are going to be here from Thursday until the 30th. If any locals are available for drinks from the 26th onward, I will desperately appreciate getting me out of the house. if i wasn't, like, expecting to have a baby next week, i'd be there with bells on. my in laws are coming to help take care of M while i'm in the hospital and right after, so i'll be with you in the spirit of solidarity.

Another red district Dem came out in support of impeachment. Rep McAdams of Utah That made me happy to read. He has a lot of Republicans in his district and sneaked by with the win last election. I could have seen him going the other way.

I mean if he is providing relevant information while abiding by the canons of judicial conduct what would Roberts say? I also don't think it's a good look for a chief justice to comment on which programs, events, lectures, etc. are acceptable for a justices to attend (whether conservative or liberal). This is not a defense of Fox n' Friendz.

I know polling numbers don't mean much, especially this early, but I love this response from Biden:

Ahahaha. I'm at the swearing in for our county government and Bullet Beer Cozy Bitch is here. She probably doesn't have anything else to do since she lost her seat on the school board 🤣

Wow. That is not millions, that is BILLIONS. I feel bad for people who practice this religion. That is hard to handle if you trusted your church to do the right thing. Whistleblower to IRS: Mormon Church has amassed $100 billion in tax-exempt fund rather than supporting charitable works. t.co/KQ7s4gUo8f

They do a lot of charitable things as far as food banks employment help helping members in need I’m not surprised at the billions since you have to be current on tithing for your temple recommend iirc.

Have we talked about the women’s march for 2020? It’s on 1/18. I wonder how this will line up with the Senate trial (?) I can fly up for $60, so I’m really considering it.

More sports ball, less politic — but I'm excited! Stras signed a seven-year deal with the Nats.

I was surprised that the money hasn't been used in 20-something years. It seems excessive to have that much not used when there are charitable functions of the church that could use that money.

Can I just say FUCK healthcare.gov. They extended the deadline but I still can’t login because the password that I had to reset isn’t correct even though it literally saved it automatically to my phone and can’t be wrong. And they can’t help me change it on the phone because I can’t remember every address that I’ve lived at in the last 10 fucking years and it’s like they’ve never met a poor person that doesn’t have stable housing!!!!!
Anyway, hope I don’t get sick this year.

Anyway, hope I don’t get sick this year. Yeah it wouldnt take my password either. And wouldnt reset cause i couldnt answer the security questions that I never remembered creating cause why would i have chosen my parents anniversary date as a question cuz i dont know it and id have to call my mom and ask and since my dad died 10 years ago she would cry about it. So i made a new account with diff e-mail. In other news last year it said ok you qualify for some assistance but we couldnt afford any monthly payments. This year with dh out of work for a whole year and severance money all gone when I entered stuff its like ok you qualify for Medicaid/az ahcccs so we will send them your data ok bye now. Im wondering if i entered something wrong the last year or this year.

bunnyfungo, I'm sorry. I really hate that website, too. Healthcare in this country is Hunger Games. May the odds be ever in your favor.

When I was trying to reset my password again it yelled at me and said I couldn’t reset it more than once in 24 hours. But that would make me miss the deadline. But it has a warning not to create a new account and at this point I probably will because wtf else am I supposed to do??

Last year with no health insurance was a gamble. But if we paid more $ thsn we had for shitty insursnce with a 10k+ deductible we would be on the hook for 10k+ if say dh had another heart attack.
Dealing with the $$$$ we still owe banner hospitals from heart attack with good insurance we were told sorry we can set up a huge monthly payment or you can pay it all right now, we dont care that you lost your job.
But if you had no insurance we could write off the 200k hospital bill you would owe. So um yeah.

It didnt seem to mess up with a new account, but we didnt have an insurance plan with them active. It may get cranky on you. I didnt call because it was deadline day and I still hadnt gotten password fixed. So i just made new acct. You wouldnt couldnt be the only person who made a new acct. So there has to be a way to transfer data or combine accts
