How much do Americans actually pay for healthcare?
  • Here's my anecdote. I have Kaiser through my employer and pay about $200 a month for the best plan offered. I pay $10 for a 30 day supply of generic medication. Video/phone visits are free. I recently had to get lab work done twice and paid $90 combined for both, but I was able to just drop by whenever was convenient for me and was in and out in 10 mins. I had a mental health crisis last year and went through weeks of intensive outpatient group therapy plus months of ACT/DBT therapy all for free. My individual therapist is covered and I pay nothing. I recently had a physical exam, it was covered. Now I do have an autoimmune disorder that I do feel a bit neglected a bit by them, but I could advocate for myself more.

    So from a non major life threatening emergency perspective, I feel pretty satisfied with my insurance.

  • Just Switch Over
  • Welcome to Linux. I run mint and had screen tearing issues as well. Turns out mint detected my monitor correctly, but it had the wrong refresh rate. Once I set that to the correct refresh rate, my screen tearing was fixed. So I suggest checking that.

  • Copium
  • Disco certainly had it's up and maybe a bit more downs, but it has some of the best characters. Stamets is great (so please keep the name), and so is Suru. And the relationship between Suru and Michael is one of Treks best imo. And once we got over the speed bumps, Stamets and Culver warmed my icy gay heart when they were on screen together. Tilly and Reno were also great characters.

  • The Ten Forward Hot Take Thread
  • TNG is pretty meh. I grew up with it, I've watched every episode at least twice, but now that I'm as old as Patrick Steward was when TNG started, I have a hard time caring about most episodes.

  • What's the most manipulative thing anyone has ever done to you?
  • I never went home much after that because it wasn't home anymore. Then I came out and things deteriorated even more. I wasn't allowed to tell my siblings (I'm the oldest) and I wasn't allowed to be alone with them. Nowadays I don't talk to my dad and I text my mom Merry Christmas once a year.

  • What's the most manipulative thing anyone has ever done to you?
  • Was going to write about an ex, but I think I'll talk about my parents. I went away to college, first year, first semester. Winter break come around and I'm planning on coming home to spend christmas with my family for a week or two, stay in my bedroom, etc. I arrive home for the first time since the beginning of the semester, and ... my bedroom is gone. My parents remodeled the house while I was away and they extended the living room by knocking out my bedroom. They never even asked me about it, told me anything, I just found out I have no place to come back to once I walked through the front door. That sort of brazen rejection as a teenager... it fucked me up.

  • What are your favorite Dreamcast games?
  • Power Stone 1 and 2, so much fun in college. Space Channel 5, just loved the retrofuture ascetic and rhythm games. Same for Rez, a rhythmic shooter. Oh, can't forget Jet Set Radio, loved that so much.

  • What's Everyone Playing in Their First Playthrough?
  • For MP with my husband I'm doing a sorlock "anyway, I started blasting" halfelf. For single player I'm definitely doing dark urge but still haven't decided on a class even though I've had a long time to think about it...
