From medicaid.gov "93,373,794 individuals were enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP in the 50 states and the District of Columbia that reported enrollment data for February 2023."

Seems like a fair number of people.

I realize this is advice not everyone can use, but I keep throwing it out there just in case someone can. If you're in the US and struggling, but able to move states, Ohio practically saved my life. Expanded Medicaid paid all of my doctor's bills until I got SSI, and now the MPAP program pays my partner's Medicare fees. PIPP keeps the electricity and gas at 6% of our income each. Property is affordable in a lot of areas because it's economically depressed, and jobs are scarce. We used the covid stimulus as a down payment on an FHA mortgage on a legitimately decent 5 bed 3 bath house, for $345 a month.

In California we'd be living in our car.

At least he actually created Facebook himself.

Since the CEO went down with his s̶h̶i̶p̶ sub, the lawyers will have to get creative.

If the goal was to create more work for Reddit's paid employees, annoy Spez, draw more attention to the whole debacle, and motivate more people to try other platforms, then it's been a success.

Personally I find it entertaining, the way any disaster is entertaining from afar.

50 year old female, been playing video games since the Atari 2600. With the SO since 1996.

Methinks OP just needs to meet more women. There is no "cut off age at which video games are no longer an acceptable pastime".

If they aren't making enough money now, they'll just love paying people to keep popular subreddits up.

I wonder if, in the very distant future, people will be able to grow their own meat at home from a small sample. And if so, whether anyone will try making burgers from themselves, when they get a cut or a scrape.

Red Green. Supernatural. SG1. And forgive me, but for those particularly shitty days, Beavis and Butthead.

Same. Pile on the comforters, then crank up the air conditioner and the fan.

I'm on here, Lemmy, Squabbles, and Fark. Fark doesn't seem to be getting much traction though.
