  Amy Acton's step-father, who raped her, had already been prosecuted for raping his own daughter when Acton's mother married him and brought him into contact with her. #Ohio #USPol Acton's mother was later convicted of felony theft by deception. It's like Vivek Ramaswamy did no vetting of the mother. BTW, Acton paid her way though college, and then medical school. She should be the poster child for GOP. That is what they have been saying we need to do with their decades of, &quo...

  "Tommy, thank you. ... Congrats" Jan Crawford, CBS News' chief national legal correspondent, in a now deleted tweet, couldn't wait to praise Dr. Abdul El-Sayed's attacker, right-wing paid agitator and white Christian nationalist Tommy Teepel. #USPol #CBS

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/117466983307949301 Mastodon's redesign is about to happen. They mention "existing users having to re-learn the interface" and end with they didn't have time to redesign everything. UGH! Looks like too much wasted white space. #Mastodon 10 to 1 it will make it physically harder for those of us with accessibility needs. Mastodon.social goes live Tuesday.

  Fresh feeling of filing a sternly worded incident report against my insurance company that the State of Ohio must fully investigate in a timely manner after the State of Ohio whored out the Nursing Home Care in the Home program I am in to commercial insurance companies. St Luigi give me strength to deal with all the arse kissing that is about to come my way... In this instance, the state is incentivized to find the company at fault and in my favor (hee hee) It is a legit issue though that wi...

  RE: https://oldfriends.live/@paul/117433318590627317 Get this shit. Due to the Ohio #GOP overreaction to fraud and fear of Dr OZ, Trump, DOGE, and far right Media's behavior, have put a lot of my nursing home care at home #Medicaid medical care under prior authorization starting October 1, 2026. It is so new that my insurance company, the lessor of three evils that I had to choose from starting August 2026 for Ohio covered specific services, called MyCare Ohio because Ohio whored out all o...

  I'm stuck in an AI chat with my health insurance regarding a new #Ohio GOP "Fraud" overreaction prior approval requirement for services I have been getting for over a decade and it is pissing me off and the AI is useless. Epilogue: It told me to call the phone number I originally called that told me to go and talk with a live agent online to resolve the issue. This is bullshit.

  I know some of you take a keen interest in my health, esp my Twitter immigrants of 2022 followers that came over to the fediverse when I did, In the past year there has been a noticeable progression of the disease in the studies but still much slower than the average. I take that as a win. I thought, based on issues that I was having, the results were going to be much worse. The prediction, based on comparison studies of me over the past decade, is to expect some marked decline in my motor...

  A Texas mental health clinic owner was convicted by a federal jury after prosecutors said he orchestrated a $26 million scheme to defraud the military’s health care program, using some of the proceeds to fund luxury purchases, including a gold-plated Tesla Cybertruck worth more than $100,000. Federal prosecutors said the man exploited TRICARE, the health care program serving active-duty servicemembers, retirees and their families, by billing for transcranial magnetic stimulation, or TMS, therap...

  Since I have a lot of local followers, Clermont County, Ohio (Batavia suburb east of #Cincinnati #Ohio ) has like 20 lots of printers/copiers going off GOVDeals auction in less that 5 hours (some 6 hours) of this post! Lots range from 4 to 10 units each lot and bids are like $10 to $50 right now. I guess they upgraded their hardware. Perfect for business, upgrade your home printing/copying, make flyers, esp if you protest, etc The computer I run my Mastodon server on came from GovDeal auction...

Now, she gets the best of both worlds. Plus, when she comes...

  Holy fvck. I just called to see how much home heating oil is and it is $6.49 a gallon in #AppalachianOhio today. That's over $1600 a fill-up. The most we have ever paid to fill the tank was $700 #Ohio #USPol You know how many ppl heat with oil the US, esp in the northern climates! So glad it is our backup heat now and we put in the heat pumps over the past couple years!
