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

Reblogging to second the manufacturer's coupons. I paid $75 for 1 month of my antidepressant for four years. FOUR YEARS. Until a pharmacist told me "Hey, check their website."

Now I pay $15 for 3 months.

(or yet another au i can't stop thinking about)

I’m fairly certain that the people who make the “batman could make himself obsolete by using his money to solve the economic strain that drives many people to crime” posts are only familiar with Batman through Will Arnett’s spoof performance in the Lego movie, since that’s the only version of Batman I know where he isn’t hiring so many ex-convicts at his company so they have a legitimate source of income and using so much money to fund social programs that all the other bigwigs at Wayne Enterprises hate him and want him gone

Literally every version of his origin story I can remember involves him realizing that he can’t just treat the symptoms as Batman, he has to treat the root cause as Bruce Wayne. A huge part of the plot of “The Dark Knight Rises” is that his company is on the verge of bankruptcy because Bruce keeps spending all their profits on things like “clean energy” and “food and shelter for orphans.”

The opening of “Arkham City” shows him campaigning against mass incarceration because the majority of the inmates in Arkham City are not public menaces like the Joker, they’re desperate people with no other options, and Gotham should be providing them with legitimate means of stability rather than punishing them for having none.

Especially since the majority of his villains are independently wealthy people (doctors, lawyers, business executives) who are exploiting people’s desperation in order to get themselves henchmen, and the henchmen almost always have jobs with a living wage waiting for them on the other side of their sentence, and Bruce has a standing offer to pay out-of-pocket for the therapy of any of his villains whose crimes are the result of a mental illness (which Bruce is sympathetic to since he is mentally ill himself)

But what’s really damning about these posts is that a lot of them suggest Bruce should use his money to give the police the resources they need to deal with crime on their own, which makes it clear they’ve never actually consumed a piece of Batman media, since the issue with the Gotham Police is not that they’re underfunded. They have a bloated budget, they’re almost militant, and they’re so corrupt that they actually encourage crime, both violent and economic, because they’re on the payroll of the richest criminals. 

Also, some of them refer to Batman as a “old rich white man’s wet dream” and I really disagree here. A story that says the only rich dude in the world who’s not a criminal drain on society is the one who spends the majority of his hefty inheritance and all his corporate profits trying to correct the imbalance that allowed him his wealth in the first place, whose staunch belief is that the best crime control policy is building a world where no one feels crime is necessary, as well as refusing to support mass incarceration or police corruption, systems which stand to benefit him financially? Batman is an old rich white man’s worst nightmare

Bruce Wayne tends to spend so much of his wealth on social reform and funding charities for the needy and helping desperate ex-cons get back on their feet so they don’t have to resort to crime again, that they had to invent ancient curses and shit to explain why Gotham continues to be a shithole because it begins to stretch plausibility that there’s so much call for Batman in a city that has Bruce Wayne in it.

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Makes me a bit sad when an animal is called fat-tailed or fat-bodied or just fat, and people leave tags like "nooo don't call him that." I think "fat" is a compliment to most species on Earth. A fat mouse (Steatomys pratensis) who is actually fat is so good at surviving and doing what it was born to do. "Fat" is never an insult, but especially not when it's applied to a species whose sole purpose is to eat, breed, and enjoy what pleasures the world has to offer.

The same goes for Hobbits

Now that Im holding french-korean celine as hostage, might as well put this thought out;

Throughout Rumi's life with Celine, she'll always hear this phrase, 'Je t’aime, mon rayon de soleil' whenever she tucks Rumi in when she was young. She sometimes mumbles it under her breath with a soft tone when she thinks Rumi cant hear it.

Rumi gets frustrated trying to type it into a translator. When that didnt work, she tries to mimic it audibly. It's a laughable attempt but she's nothing but persistent. Until she FINALLY got it translated and the realization that Celine has been saying 'I love you' throughout her life.

[ Je t’aime, mon rayon de soleil - I love you, my sunshine ]

I'd like to think it's Mira who translates it for her one day, when Rumi least expects it.

Rumi's complaining about Celine, or trying to convince the girls Celine doesn't really love her as a daughter. She's just Celine and she has had this self-imposed responsibility over her for years. And she insists that it's okay even though it's clear for Zoey and Mira how much it affects her.

And suddenly Mira says, "what do you mean she doesn't love you like that?"

"Well, she does care, obviously. But it's not like she'd ever love me like that..." Rumi insists, trying to downplay how she feels. "She cares the same way she cares about you. We are the new hunters, she trained us... you know."

"Zoey, has Celine ever called you her sunshine?"

"What? No, are you kidding? I can't imagine Celine ever saying that to me."

"Exactly my point," Mira says, crossing her arms, waiting for Rumi to finally see it.

"You're acting like she's ever called me that," Rumi shrugs it off.

"Maybe only like every other night." Mira raises an eyebrow, expecting Rumi to start accepting or seeing just how much Celine really cares.

"Mira, Celine has never called me—"

"Rumi, are you fucking kidding me? Whenever you said goodnight to her she'd wish you a goodnight and say it." Mira scoffs. "I think she only stopped when she realised I was now living with you two."

"You mean she— the french thing?"

"Je t'aime, mon rayon de soleil," Mira says in perfect French.

"Wow, I didn't know you knew French, Mira," Zoey exclaims. "Sexy! You can drive some fans crazy." She then winks.

Rumi on her part is still looking at Mira, her eyes tearing up. "Is that what she's been saying all this time?"

"You didn't know?" Mira raises her eyebrow once again.

"Why wouldn't you just ask?" Zoey interrupts, both finding the situation funny and endearing.

"She never really said it to my face. It was always when I was leaving the room or when she thought I was asleep. I— I didn't know— What about Tu e se plu presiu me siu. What does that mean?"

Looking at Rumi with a poker face, "Never, ever speak French again."

"I don't know how to pronounce it! I've been trying to learn what she was saying for years!"

"You mean when she said: Tu es la personne la plus précieuse à mes yeux?"

Rumi nods, "Yes! She'd say that some days!"

"You're the most precious person to me or in my eyes."

Rumi breaks down crying right after that.

Mira becoming Rumi's unwilling (and unqualified) french teacher, suffering through Rumi's pronunciation being like how how how are you so bad at this? 😑

But the tears that start welling up in Celine's eyes when Rumi finally gets it right and says it to her makes it all worth it

This but also to be silly goofy about it: Celine using pet names that don’t translate well, like ma choue or ma puce

Rumi: sometimes she’d say my… shoe? What’s that one?

And Mira goes directly through every stage of The Horrors of Rumi’s accent and then realizes she can take revenge and is just like “cabbage. You are her little cabbage. Ma puce? That’s my flea.”

Bonus points if Rumi learns to say: "Je t'aime Maman" and Celine tears up and smiles because "Maman" feels right coming from her daughter and doesn't feel like she's replacing Mi-Yeong like "Eomma" would.

I've cracked the formula

Rumi is so babygirl loser and also extremely hot and competent bc it's nurture vs nature

Raised by sad wet cat Celine who is the most babygirl milf I've ever seen and has spent Rumi's entire life ruminating (ha) on how badly she fumbled Miyeong, but has the genes of Chad Miyeong who had so much game and served so much cunt that she pulled a demon away from Gwi-Ma while having her bandmate wrapped around her pinky finger (bc we all know Celine was down atrocious for Miyeong)

thank you for coming to my Ted talk
