That's such a great museum! They also have a "build a muppet" workshop, and a bunch of cool interactive exhibits! Big recommend for anyone visiting Atlanta.

One of my favorite theories on classic "grey" aliens is that they look like that due to a native low-gravity environment: big heads and eyes, frail little bodies.

Though violence is not lawful, when it is offered in self-defence or for the defence of the defenceless, it is an act of bravery far better than cowardly submission. The latter befits neither man nor woman. Under violence, there are many stages and varieties of bravery. Every man must judge this for himself. No other person can or has the right.

The posts about claim-reversals are just something I've seen a few posts about here and on FB, no news sources.

I do have a semi-related Snopes article: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/anthem-blue-cross-shield-anesthesia/ Anthem BCBS had an unpopular anesthesia policy that they walked back on December 5th. Probably a coincidence.

But also, here's several stories about people expressing their outrage.

Americans hate their private health insurance

Brian Thompson’s killing sparks outrage over state of US healthcare

UnitedHealthcare Denies More Claims Than Other Insurers — Angering Patients And Health Systems

After shooting, UnitedHealthcare comes under scrutiny for AI use in treatment approval

All of these had been in the news, but the killing has pushed the conversation center stage. It's a strange and funny time too, since Trump is promising to roll back the ACA and make all of this much worse. People apparently just have no idea that the ACA and Obamacare are the same thing, or that it's the reason they even have insurance at all.

He added that employees should "tune out" criticism of the insurance company, saying that it "does not reflect reality."

Anytime someone tells you to ignore the advice or criticisms of everyone else but them that is the reddest of flags. Literally abuser behavior.

This is true of health care too and was a major driving factor behind the ACA. If you (if everyone) goes in for a yearly or twice yearly checkup and health screening, then dangerous conditions like cancer, disease, injury, and so on get caught sooner. The sooner you catch a problem, the easier and cheaper it is to fix.

If you dont get regular screenings, then people find out they have cancer too late, usually after an emergency (an ER visit), when cost of care is very expensive. The ACA made the case that getting everyone more preventative care would reduce overall health costs.

Another factor is that hospitals do help the uninsured, then pass those costs along to the insured. There are so many hidden costs in our system due to cruelty and inefficiency that would go away if we had universal health care. But the key difference is that the current system funnels all the benefits/value (all the money) into the hands of a small number of people, while actually universal healthcare spreads the benefits out over all of society.

All the "my claims magically aren't being denied anymore after the 4th" posts are telling me that this action has already started saved lives. Theres a national conversation now happening about how the industry got so bad that more Americans are celebrating this execution than not, and what needs to be done to (nonviolently) fix the problem. Publicly killing a CEO proved to be an effective solution literally in the first 24 hours.

Obviously they want to make an example. They'll drag him through the mud in court, reveal that he was sexually deviant, claim he cheated on tests in school, played video games, played d&d, worshipped Satan, on and on. Then, when they've dragged the court out long enough to bore people, they'll execute him publicly and call it justice.

They won't epstein him, too obvious and likely to generate martyrdom. Killing him like a "common murderer" shows that "the system works" and that the machinery of the state's actions are natural and inevitable.

Or maybe they'll try to just lock him away forever and get him to write some books to make the prisons a little more money. Works for serial killers, and sales of "How to murder a CEO" will help to defuse revolutionary sentiment by recuperating the murder as an exotic one-off situation. He's gonna get simple-ricked.

I'm not complaining, just trying to understand the shitiverse cannon

if you mean because I called it (ai) slop, I just calls 'em like I sees 'em. Plus as you say, the sign already called it shit

Who's the radioactive "D" mario in the background of this slop?

Is this a crossover episode? "D"erek Powers, aka, D'blight has joined the brawl?

Hah! Of course it is, I didn't know that but words stopped meaning anything in tech ages ago and reality is finally catching up. Makes sense though, Azure and AWS both are webs of different data stores and interconnections now.
