The Triumphant Tripolar Bear

I’m sorry you think I’m lying, but I’m not. I qualified for the Medicaid expansion under the ACA, which is partially funded through taxpayer revenue. I don’t think the IRS mailed you a letter saying, “Nah nah nah nah naaaaaaah! This year’s tax dollars went to pay for medicine for poor people mwahahaha!” Who knows? Maybe YOUR portion of tax dollars went to a Hellfire missile that took out a village in Afghanistan. Ooh, how exciting for you!

Fun fact:

After getting this medicine, I got back up on my feet and got a temp job, which then led to me getting a full time job I’ve had for three years. I haven’t been eligible for Medicaid since September of 2014. I have a great policy I purchased on the state exchange. I paid federal taxes in 2015 and 2016 gladly.

I THINK IT DOES YEAH

single manta ray dragons are often found hiding among schools of actual mantas, and usually its only their head shape when seen from above that gives them away. despite the name, their similarities to actual manta rays are mostly superficial - instead of filter feeding, theyre avid hunters that use short bursts of speed to catch fish unawares, and they can be fiercely territorial about the schools of rays they swim with

Oscar Wilde’s Lipstick-Covered Tomb | Via

The practice started in the late 1990s, when somebody decided to leave a lipstick kiss on the tomb. Since then lipstick kisses and hearts have been joined by a rash of red graffiti containing expressions of love, such as: “Wilde child we remember you”, “Keep looking at the stars” and “Real beauty ends where intellect begins”. Kissing Oscar’s tomb on the Paris tourist circuit has become a cult pastime.

A fine of €9,000 ($12,000) was imposed on anyone caught kissing or damaging the historical monument, but it had no effect. It was hard to catch people in the act, and most culprits were tourists who were long gone before the police could bring them to court. Appeals from Wilde’s grandson Merlin Holland to stop the practice also fell on deaf ears. A plaque asking fans to respect the tomb instead of defacing it went in vain.
