Its just like when France was all like "George Washington you better just surrender and give at least three of the colonies back to England because people are dying and also we'll take all your beaver furs for the next 100 years for helping. Now say thank you and sign this with the feather thingy"

Got our new dog from rescue today. Hank the Tank. Mother was a Pit/dad- Australian Shepard and doodle. Probably going to be 80 or 90 pounds. Very calm and loving.

We are pulling the artist and the intelligentsia at @bsky.app They just wanted a place to go to discuss issues with others in their field and we get to peek in while they do it. It is like the old days salons. They didn’t sign on for crazy trolls so they have to be loving it here.

Sharing in case this guy is up.

So apparently they’re considering having Stuart Fischbein join HHS. For those who don’t know, this man lost his license for inappropriate sexual relations with patients. He also doesn’t believe birthing people should get epidurals bc he thinks it disrupts their connection with the fetus.

Paying for @bsky.app down the road will be like paying for NPR.

Absolutely not. If you can afford it, it is worth paying to support things you use that are good. If a few dollars a month help this place stay viable without the sort of revenue-generating tactics that ruined Twitter, I am happy to do that.

Kind of like the Green Party and the Free Palestine supporters. They fixin to find out.

So, in essence “our Union members decided to shoot themselves in the foot because Dem rhetoric, but Repub rhetoric is totally great!” Let’s see if your unions still exists in 4 years. Conservatives are anything but union-friendly. Best of luck!

Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy will co-lead the newly created department that Trump indicated will operate outside the confines of gov… 1st time I ever saw an immigrant take a US job. Maybe GOP aren’t wrong about everything. Sarcasm

@bsky.app Could you make it that when a long group of people follow you that you can just hit the + sign after you have reviewed the accounts? The one at a time is killing me and I want to be polite and follow back. I can’t even imagine what that is like for large account holders - full time job!

Wood said Musk understands the world is at “the threshold of a convergence among many technologies.” I get government could use some efficiency and definitely more technological assistance. This though is not from the heads of those agencies not wanting efficiency 1/4

Maybe though they will go for a win first and try to go after efficiency in Medicare and realize that is only about a 2 percent cost of services for gov for admin and the fraud is their donors - doctors (a minority) and hospitals gaming the system. AI and investigators would help there 3/4

I remember reading that in one state - each investigator for Medicaid fraud was finding average of 1 mil in fraud (doctors). The income for that investigator was probably 100g with all benefits. IRS is probably higher per agent. Deterrents keep honest people honest. 4/4

It is from the budget chokehold that actually is the silent tax break that has been going on. Imagine if IRS had benefitted from computers that aren’t from 20 years ago and software that was older. I imagine that will be the first place they cut though-not make efficient. 2/4

This is a great response to why I can’t deal with maga. I do like to hear from others’ perspectives, but if you say there is a pedo den in the basement of the pizza joint (no basement) run by dems and the rich dems and stars (they think are dems) eat children to stay young we can’t be friends.
