Dudes healthcare is so fake. My ADHD meds are $940 without insurance. But they gave me a website of "coupons" which straight up looks like a scam website, and I got it today for $60! Just a coupon from a random website and it was $900 cheaper. America, I am confusion!! America explain!!
For all my uninsured judys out there it's for Walgreens only: walgreens.rxsense.com
as a pharmacy technician i can share with you some websites that give you those "coupons" for your meds!
goodrx is the most well known one, but if i'm trying to find the cheapest price for a patient i compare it to scriptcycle, and use whichever is offering the best price. you just type in the medication (PLEASE make sure you're getting the right drug, dosage, and quantity) and your zip code and they will spit out some offers for you
some pharmacies may have their own discount card to compare to as well!
if you are getting a name brand medication, you can also look at the manufacturer's website to see if they offer any evouchers for you to use too
good luck out there 👍
another one is singlecare.com, brought my duloxetine from $240 a month to $20
and there are coupons for hrt on there as well :) different options for different pharmacies
dollarfor.org saved my broke ass, it can save urs too
Even the medication manufacturer can provide coupons. My monthly injection goes from $1800 to $20, and I pay a $5 copay.
It’s amazing how the barter economy has been replaced by ‘how good are you at cutting coupons’ in the US (Canada too but this isn’t a problem here- drugs cost, yes, but also mostly generic so there isn’t the massive markup)
Dan Jones was jolted awake around 1 a.m. Tuesday to the sound of federal agents trying to break through his apartment door. They couldn’t get past his double lock, so he went back to bed.
But when he woke up hours later for work, he walked out and found broken doors littering the hallway — and his neighbors missing.
Jones, 27, is among the residents left at 7500 S. South Shore Drive who are trying to piece together what remains after an early morning, high-powered federal immigration raid led to the arrests of dozens of their neighbors at their South Shore apartment building.
Armed federal agents in military fatigues busted down their doors overnight, pulling men, women and children from their apartments, some of them naked, residents and witnesses said. Agents approached or entered nearly every apartment in the five-story building, and U.S. citizens were among those detained for hours.
When he got home from work, Jones said he entered his unit to find all of his electronics and furniture missing, and all of his clothes and shoes thrown on the floor. Jones said he had no idea who took his belongings and hadn’t received answers from Chicago police.
What pisses me off is the youtubers who go "Ah jeez I butchered that name". Bitch this is a scripted production. You have literally all the time in the world to look up the proper pronunciation and say it right. You can do research for your fucking neopets deep dive but when its time to pronounce a word in Chinese suddenly you're helpless. Go fuck yourself for real.
in law school, my mom took me to this stress retreat because my family was vaguely aware i was a suicide risk. and they didnt allow phones, so i brought this huge bag of books. and one of the options for "destressing" was this fake cave grotto thing, where they'd decorated a room to make it look exactly like an underground cave and the air was like -10 degrees, but there was a like 4ft deep pool in the middle that was kept super super hot, so you would just switch between the hot and cold. and they would bring you an endless supply of this weird syrupy drink thing that was like super caffeinated and tasted like sugar and mint. and so i spent multiple days sitting half submerged in this fake grotto drinking mystery liquid and reading. and i have to be honest i really did feel less stressed

Me: Okay improv class somebody give me an occupation. :)
Class: Dentist!
Me: okay, so in this scene you are going to be a dentist. :)
Child 1: WHY DID YOU STEAL MY TEETH!
Child 2, on the floor, sobbing: I’m so sorry! I sold them on the dark web. I’m in so much debt from medical college.
"Friend" is an AI wearable device designed to provide "companionship + emotional support"— i.e replace human friendships. Its literally an AI chatbot that you wear around your neck. "Friend" just paid for the largest ad campaign in NYC subway history

There’s a new litter of coyote pups hanging out in the Graceland cemetery in Chicago. They are learning how to coyote.
Sound on!
I love Chicago's coyotes so much. The only time I've ever seen pups was in Graceland so I think some coyote mama must be coming back every year.
A few things I learned from my hyperfixation on Chicago's coyotes!
Chicago did not release coyotes into downtown as pest control decades ago, that's an urban myth, but the city does officially approve of and protect our colony of about 2,000 urban coyotes because they keep the rats and rabbits in check.
In Chicago as in most urban areas, coyotes are non-aggressive to humans and dogs generally; the two exceptions are in February during mating season and when there are pups nearby. If you see pups and no adult? Walk swiftly away. If you are walking your dog in a suburban or rural area during February, do not let it off leash.
"Coyote" attacks on humans in Chicago, particularly attacks on children, are invariably later found to have been off-leash dogs. If you are walking your dog in urban Chicago, unless you are in an enclosed dog park, do not let it off leash.
Studies of coyote spoor in Chicago and outlying suburbs indicate that coyotes mainly eat rodents and garbage, but are known to eat cats. If you aren't aware by now that your cats should be kept indoors or in controlled outdoor environments only, you must be very new to Tumblr.
In any dispute between human and coyote in Chicago I have come to the conclusion I should side with the coyote. Don't @ me, I have a more aggressive prey drive than they do.
got a new theory about the mom friend override
it's easier to do something for a friend than your own chores not because you love your friend
but because someone saying "hey can you make this phone call for me?"
does NOT come with the baggage of "i should have done this earlier" and "i can't do this" and "the fact that i haven't done this is proof of how incapable i am" and "if i do this it'll be admitting it was easy all along and i can't face that"
