I feel like I want to mention though: on the way out to this game play test thing that on very very I drove out to I called 92-year-old uncle. What's kind of interesting is that with most people it's completely unpredictable what they may or may not see on my Facebook yeah because he's following almost nobody, he gets emails of almost everything I write. And so as it turns out he's seeing my pictures and politics and the holy s*** look what's going on now and there's a small rally save NASA at the Eisenhower tomorrow and all the stuff with 50501 and everything else and he asked what I thought my father would think and I said it's a mercy dad didn't live to see this and I was pretty passionate about all of the ways dad believed in the power of government to protect the little guy to help people. And I'm really honestly confused as to does he actually understand what's happening now or is he compartmentalizing or does he actually consider this all just as bad and terrifying as I do but it's too hard to admit?
One of the things I also mentioned to him is that a number of states have trigger language in their Medicaid laws and any change from the feds will end the expansion and I have friends who that is their health insurance and I have one friend who has several aggressive cancers and that is how he lives.
I'm sort of parked, but I need to make a call to figure out where I'm supposed to actually be going. Maybe more later.
