Good. We just bought new ones for H this year (which is part of the reason he also got a vasectomy this year; we had hit our deductible, so might as well). They are SOOO expensive. I think $5000. If it wasn't for the kids, I think he'd just stop wearing them altogether.

If it wasn't for the kids, I think he'd just stop wearing them altogether. This makes me wonder about tricare and hearing aids. My friend's husband requires an aid in one ear due to hearing loss from the war in Afghanistan. We aren't very good at treating the ailments our service members suffer on our behalf (no shade at the good people who work at the VA). It's just under resourced and overextended .

Congressman Fortenberry (NE-01) is in trouble. Thread
No worries, he recorded an “I’m not guilty” video in preparation. (There is a googly eye thing with him that I don’t fully know the background of)
ETA for the spoiler and this is where the eye thing began

Can someone explain to me why Travis tritt is on a blocking spree on Twitter? He announced yesterday he won’t book shows at any venue that require proof of vax and/or masks. The most interesting part of that news is that Travis Tritt still believes he is relevant to the music scene, by now I would have thought he was reduced to ‘acoustical’ performances and lesser known state fairs.

Thank you. And I couldn’t figure out how he thought he was still relevant either. Even during my 90s country phase I didn’t like him.

I know that my dad is eligible for free hearing aids through the VA. He is considered 100% disabled with the VA, so that could be why, but any service-connected disability should qualify for something.

I see that metro gave the riders of that derailed blue line train a $21 smartcard credit as "compensation."

RE: Parkland i just saw a tweet by a MSD senior who posted a picture of the building where it happened, taped off, lights on, and its incredible we are still inflicting that trauma on those students and teachers almost four years later.

Can we express disgust at the reduction of paid family leave from 12 to 4 weeks?
We don’t take PUPPIES from their mama before 8 but it’s ok to make a human leave a month old newborn?
I’m so angry at that specifically but furious at the entire thing

I’m so angry at that specifically but furious at the entire thing I mean something is better than nothing but I agree. Our country is so incredibly behind the times on parental leave, it’s gross. I feel very lucky that I got as much time as I wanted with all of my kids but so many people are not that lucky.
