I really want a movie where there’s this Dark Brooding Male Hero who’s like, a total badass, and during all the fight scenes he keeps getting flashbacks to happy images of his wife, and like his whole narrative is framed around his wife, and all the other heroes on his team know that he’s got this passion and vengeance and think it all has to do with his dead wife… but then near the end of the movie his wife shows up and he’s like “hey babe” they’re all shocked and they’re like, “Wait I thought all your power and passion came from avenging your dead wife?” and he’s like “no bro, I just really love my wife, she’s really cool, she’s what keeps me going” like… a reverse fridge

Unfridge your wives 2017

Unfridge your wives 2018

“This whole saving the world thing has kept me from seeing my wife for like, three days and I was really starting to miss her!”

It turns out he’s normally a ray of sunshine and is only Dark Brooding Male Hero mode when he misses her. 

I’m sorry what do preexisting conditions have to do with the healthcare industry?

Well we all know that in order to afford any health anything in the US you need insurance right? Medication, doctor visits, basic medical needs, any kind of medical equipment from a bandaid and roll of gauze to a boot cast and crutches cost an INSANE amount of dollars. This is because the hospitals and most doctor offices discount these rates for insurance companies but charge those without insurance full price.

Okay so no big deal you just get insurance, pay a monthly fee often taken right out of your paycheck or whatever depending on your place of work or insurance company and you’re good right? Hell people can stay on their parent’s insurance till they’re 26 and the Affordable Care Act was a thing so yeah no problem right?

Except that every insurance company covers different doctors, hospitals, procedures, etc, that can change yearly, AND most insurance companies WILL NOT insure you if you have a “pre-existing condition.”

These pre-existing conditions can be anything from heart problems, diabetes, cancer, mental illnesses, etc. but can ALSO be shit like pregnancy, obesity, and stuff that isn’t ACTUALLY pre-existing but that you had when you applied for insurance so they’ll deny you. With some companies you can break your leg, apply for insurance afterwards to help cover medical costs (ya know what insurance is SUPPOSED TO DO), and they WILL NOT approve you. Meaning if you don’t get insurance when you’re 100% healthy and fine you could have a harder time getting it.

And this isn’t even touching on seniors needing health insurance and how life insurance can turn you down for bullshit reasons including but not limited to being slightly under weight or having too many headaches in a year.

The US healthcare system is BUUUUUUULLLLLLLSHIT

jeff bezos: now that i’m the richest man on the planet with a net worth of over 100 billion dollars

jeff bezos: how about i create new ways to fuck over my employees and underpay them

jeff bezos: i’ve got it, i’ll legally not pay them while they’re still on the clock, and i’ll get the supreme court to agree with me

Jeff Bezos currently has a net worth of $133.2 billion

It’s remarkable to me that he could personally afford to fix Puerto Rico’s critical infrastructure, and still be among the top 10 billionaires in the USA afterwards. He could afford to completely repair Puerto Rico and still have enough money to be in the top 20. 

Jeff Bezos could afford to personally end world hunger for a year and still be among the top 10 US billionaires. He could feed the entire planet for 3 years and still be in the top 20.

If you had $133.2 billion in a savings account with an interest rate of 0.06% (the average rate), you would receive $79.9 million in interest every year without having to do anything. All he needs to do is keep breathing, and he will make 57 times more this year than an average US citizen will make in their entire lifetime

He could spend $80 million this year and would not even notice its absence.

It’s estimated that it would take $55 million and a year of work to fix Flint, MI’s water supply. 

I’m just saying. 

I can’t imagine having that kind of money and NOT trying to help others with it.

have y’all ever had communion bread that was just so….nasty? like i know we have to suffer as christians, but do we really need to have whole wheat bread as the body of christ?

my old church used hawaiian bread. my standards are high

Some old housemates of mine were Syrian Orthodox. At their church different members of the church took turns baking the bread that would be consecrated for the Eucharist. This was all well and good until one woman baked raisin bread. This led to the memorable occasion of a rather flustered priest, who had not seen the bread until that moment, declaring, “This - except for the raisins - is the Body of Christ.”

EXCEPT FOR THE RAISINS omg

The raisins are his blood on solid form
