Moochers.

not geese, but related: probably fifteen years ago I lived in the guesthouse at my parents' place bc they charged minimal rent for my own separate spot, and the door was a sliding glass situation. one afternoon a mourning dove flew into the glass, which is unfortunately not uncommon when the sun is at the right angle and they can't tell it's not a way through. the poor thing hit the door so hard that it died very shortly after impact; I barely had time to get up from my seat and go see what the commotion was when it slumped and died right on my welcome mat. before I could figure what to do, its mate flew down next to it and laid its head down on the deceased bird and I swear on all that you may or may not believe is holy, it died right there after a few moments of laying still. the other bird didn't hit the glass at all but the only thing I can think happened is that it just gave up knowing its mate was gone. to this day it's one of the saddest but fucked-uppedly sweetest things I've ever seen. I actually cried.

*Many many shenanigans FTFY

Oh my gosh, watch the video, the very end, when the two geese are snuggling with each other is so precious

Now, this is an adorable story.

You would rather they starved to death on a snowy mountain? Aren’t you just a warm and fuzzy person.

Drug companies are lower older generation insulin drugs, not newer better drugs.

Kind of wondering if this is a freebie just because they're going to be pushing anyone who can afford it to their GLP-1 drugs like Wegovy and Mounjaro (or the equivalent for diabetes alone, as these are the brand names for their obesity drugs) and everyone who can't afford it is probably eligible for Medicaid where the price is going to be capped anyway.

These are all happening because of legislation, right? These companies aren’t just doing this out of the goodness of their heart because they love humanity.

If you ever get a chance, read up on these animals. They are monogamous for life. If their significant other gets sick during the migration season, they will not migrate and leave them. If they die, they will not leave their bodies. I actually saw this happen at my job. It's what made me go down the research rabbit hole. It was so sad. I'm surprised they were able to find it another mate.

Ah the good kind of slash I like

Duck (left swipe)… duck (left swipe)… GOOSE!

Biden will never get credit.

Well my toothbrush sits with an electrified shaft up it's end every night.
So . . . lots of happy transportation in the future. Go science!

Oh cool! Yeah, having now worked in a switch facility for another company, as well as raised floor sites, concrete slab, and cooling similar to these is the way forward.

Liquid door also comes to mind.

I wish for a second this actually did something. Watch these companies quarter over quarter profits and I promise you they will continue to deliver for their shareholders.

They will just Jack the price up on the rest of their portfolio to make up the difference.

And while some may pipe in and say “well diabetics can’t live without insulin”, many others can’t live without their medicine either specifically chemotherapy, psych meds etc. This is a massive virtue signal, because the populous is well educated and aware about insulin.

If you think for one second the drug companies are being benevolent, I have some beach front property in Ohio to sell you.

I certainly love how they taste

Oh nice. I’m familiar with Scalematrix. Raised floors aren’t as prevalent as they used to be and honestly it’s for the better.
