In the #fediverse it is faux pax to not use #hashtags, simply because people have filter lists of things they want to ignore.

I'm going to make this the most unsharable #toot - in this moment of time.

Another doctor's appointment and to my mild surprise the doctor was wearing a mask AND was aware there is currently a COVID surge.

However, I'm not loving the now $50 copay mandated by my insurance. It's high enough to make me think twice about what care I really need (as if I was an expert). Having a massive entry fee just for the privilege to see a doctor is obscene - copays should be illegal.

Hey #sfba #Ivory #mastodon #fediverse
#mastodonart #mastophoto friends

I’m getting an electric #wheelchair so I can get out of bed for more than a couple minutes at a time.
Which I can’t do anymore because of my health issues-I get dizzy sometimes, other times my legs turn to jelly & I have to hold onto chairs, counters, etc to keep from falling.
EVERY time I get up now I get extreme pain & more fatigued the longer I stay upright.
It’s really stupid & frustrating too.

The wheelchair is supposed to be delivered by the end of this month or 1st week of July.
The #copay is over $1850.

My PayPal link is below 👇if anyone wants to help me with this huge bill…which is not even close to what I need to get out of this situation, but it’s more than I wanted to ask for. I also have Venmo if anyone prefers it @ CrankyCyborg

I wish I didn’t need help
I wish I had a healthy body & a time machine…while I’m dreaming
Thanks to whoever reads this far & considers helping or reposting

I'm all for doctors getting credit for the time that they work but our healthcare system is such a mess that, often times, an office visit is so cramped for time that things get missed or not fully addressed in the insanely small allotted time.

What this all boils down to is that healthcare conglomerates make more and more money while the paitients and those that directly care for them get shafted.

20 years ago, #Enbrel was a relatively new medication on the #rheumatoid disease front. My #insurance company would only cover half the cost of home injectables aside from insulin. I could not afford a $500/month #copay so I kept trying medications that wouldn't work.

Around that time a friend of mine with rheumatoid disease said that they were rolling out Enbrel very slowly in Canada and it was hard to get, and it was better for people who lived in the US where it wasn't rationed.

Oh, it was rationed.

So I was playing one of my #games the other day and got dropped into a #dungeon with, I shit you not, 'Merica Homeofthebrave' and 'Freedom Isntfree'

Me, the #healer: If you're both #american Imma have to ask for a 500 #gold #copay before each #healing #spell I cast for you. 💰

Merica: that's not #funny

Other DPS: it's a little funny

NPM summarizes the "event-stream" incident:
https://blog.npmjs.org/post/180565383195/details-about-the-event-stream-incident

"When a developer at Copay runs one of their release build scripts, the resulting code is modified before being bundled into the application."

Shit is scary af.
