what if our parents have blogs too and they follow us but we don’t know it’s them

Well look at that! My expectations are being met one by one. 

Not that I’m enjoying this, because the global market is impacting our’s as well, but how can people be so damn stupid?

LOOK AT WHO YOU’RE ELECTING.
NOW LOOK AT YOUR ECONOMY.
LOOK AT WHO’S LEADING YOUR COUNTRY.
NOW LOOK AT YOUR MONETARY CRISIS.

BOOM.

You’re bankrupt! Congratulations. 

So naturally I am procrastinating and please allow me to complain about something:

I got an email from my former doctor today informing me that my health insurance is declining coverage on a physical that took place over a year ago, and I now owe him $250. I no longer go to this doctor because he stopped accepting my insurance. This is another matter.

According to the email, I was denied coverage because of a preexisting condition (why this has not come up at any of the other ~5 doctor visits I’ve had since starting this policy in December of 2010 is beyond me. What’s more: the insurance company tried to contact me but did not have my correct address. Apparently there is no way to contact me but via the address supplied by my employer’s outsourced HR company. I assume the HR company does not push new addresses to the health insurance company with enough frequency to maintain current addresses for people who live in New York and move every 2 months.

I called my insurance company. I was informed that as long as I can prove that I had health insurance for 1 year preceding my current plan, the physical will be covered. It will nullify the preexisting condition clause or whatever.

This isn’t a problem. I had health insurance because there was no way my dad would allow me to move to New York with no job AND no health insurance. But what if I hadn’t been insured? What if, on top of being unemployed and broke, I also didn’t have a father who could afford to pay for it?

So to reiterate what everyone else already knows, our health care system sucks, and I’m obviously only having a minor problem here.

And jury’s still out on whether or not I’ll actually get this covered.

today I heard a girl who was approximately 9 say she was “ugly, fat, and forever alone”

this is what the world has come to

Native Americans, the people who have been on this land the longest, tend to consider climate change a matter of fact. For years indigenous individuals and groups, like the Indigenous Environmental Network, have voiced concern over climate change, pointing as much to changes they’ve seen in ancestral lands as to scientific studies. Now, month after month of unseasonably hot and destructive weather and reports of strange animal behavior have confirmed many suspicions that dramatic shifts are underway.
