The Heretic Files

I love "Pam's Mermaid House!" It's a delightful, cheery, 1978 home with a mermaid theme, b/c it's located in Weeki Wachee, FL, home of the Weeki Wachee Mermaids. It's right on the Weeki Wachee River and has never flooded. The updated 3bd, 2ba, 2,343sqft home was reduced $300k to $1.3m (Zillow est. $1.183m) and has a pending sale.

Look at the color of the drive, and the house is striped.

Yeah. I want my tax dollars to pay for the healthcare of the person who started smoking and kept smoking because they think it looks cool and doesn’t give a shit about all the warnings. I want my tax dollars to pay for the healthcare of the person who destroyed their liver because they just love drinking and didn’t stop even if they weren’t addicted. I want my tax dollars to pay for the healthcare of the person who never drinks water, only regular cola. I want my tax dollars to pay for the healthcare of the person who missed the trampoline when they jumped off the roof to impress their friends. I want my tax dollars to pay for the healthcare of every single person who had to have a surgeon remove something without a flared base from their assholes. I want my tax dollars to pay for all the kinds healthcare needed by all the kinds of people who decided to have sex without any kind of barrier. I want my tax dollars to help fix the teeth of meth users. I want my tax dollars to help everyone who’s been noncompliant with the doctor’s recommendations, everyone who’s been a hypochondriac in the ER, everyone who let things get bad before getting help.
