I think they are saying, even if they must spend 80% of premiums on health care, that leaves 20% for profits/admin. But if a premium is $100, $80 goes to care, $20 to the company. But if the price of care goes up and the price of premiums go up, then a $200 premium means $160 on care and $40 to the company. The company still makes more, even though the ratio of care/profit is the same, incentivizing the company to do what it can to make ALL COSTS go up, and raise premiums to match. If they can get premiums to $1000, that means $200 can be kept.

I didn’t even know masseuse was gendered, I’ve never heard anyone use masseur in the US.

Restricting screenshots is laughable security. If you can read a message then you can take a picture with a second device, there isn’t any software that can stop that.

Preventing screenshots can stop accidents and make someone think twice about it, and disappearing messages prevents returning later and looking them up, but that’s it.

I have the same info. Straight from the nurses mouth, buy new clean needles, you can reuse the bottle lots.

Replacing the needle tip with a new one after loading the syringe also keeps the needle very sharp for the shot.

Son of a… Yeah probably new users or something. I’m ok with losing $10 this year though.

I think they just jumped about $10 a year, I was just renewed for $50 a few weeks ago.

I remember getting almost all of Fairy Tail from a friend, and the last two seasons only had subtitles in Portuguese instead of English. He didn’t know because he hadn’t made it far enough yet lol.

Same, I also bought the premium years ago. I don’t know if I’m grandfathered in now, but it looks like there is a subscription option now that I won’t get, but the features and interface are nice. Sleep timer, silence scrubbing, speed control.

I’d never heard of the glitter nail polish, so I looked it up. It would appear that it is possible to defeat, though extremely difficult and tedious to do so, and was done in 2018. Basically by separating the polish and substrate material using a combo of heat and chemicals, then gluing it back on with clear nail polish in the same orientation.

Again, crazy difficult, but you could also just epoxy the case shut.
