fuck america's healthcare system
i try not to get "political" (this shouldn't be a political issue) here but holy shit. it's the most "fuck you, make the rich richer" system. people will say "what about waiting times" when you talk about paying for healthcare through taxes. there's still private doctors. if you have money, go ahead and pay for it. but for those of us that don't have a fuckton of money sitting around, we shouldn't have to give up everything we own and more just so we don't fucking die. how have so many countries figured it out but we still can't? do people really care that much about lowering taxes? that it doesn't fucking matter if your fellow person gets sick and dies because they can't afford it? woo, you saved a few dollars now. go to the emergency room. oops, i spent those few dollars i saved and don't have the ability to pay. why wouldn't you want it to be paid ahead of time through taxes so you don't have to worry about it? "why should i have to pay for other people's healthcare?" are you that much of a selfish asshole? you pay for other people's healthcare because they have just as much of a right to life as the rich. "but insurance". insurance that you have to hope doesn't fuck you over, and still doesn't pay for everything a lot of the time.
and no, it isn't "free". i've heard the "doctors deserve pay too" argument, and the "free healthcare isn't sustainable" argument. i'm not sure where people get "free" from. sure, it's free in the moment you need it, but everyone gets paid because you took a bit of your money and gave it to your country earlier so you can have it now.
honestly, this is a huge reason i want to get out of here. canada's lookin real good. no country is flawless of course, but it's better. just... gotta find a way to actually move there (legally).
also, stop cutting the taxes of the rich. they can afford it. they're the ones that should be paying for most of it.

daily schedule
- check youtube, find nothing interesting
- check reddit, waste about an hour
- check youtube again, still nothing
- listen to music while staring at nothing
- holy shit that's boring
- repeat until too tired to stay awake, or when sleeping feels possible so try because it's better than being awake

my absolute lack of social interaction has nearly killed any ability to talk to people i once had. i don't know how to do it anymore.

cool new idea: don't start the conversation for once and watch as nobody ever talks to you

alright let's talk about these alfa romeo ads
oddly enough, it looks like there was actual continuity between the ads i got.
so it started with this guy talking about his mercedes that he really wants to sell. he talks about all its great features, and why you should buy it from him. then it ends with "#makeroomforalfa". genuinely thought it was a mercedes ad until the end. the rest are shorter.
the next one he talks about yet another feature of the mercedes, then ends with "#makeroomforalfa"
the next, i forget tbh
and then the last one he's just telling you to buy his mercedes so he can buy an alfa.
the entire time, they showed off some great features of a mercedes. there was not one reason shown that i should buy an alfa. if i was looking for a car and was going to make my decision based on those ads, i would not have any actual reason to buy the alfa. mercedes is looking pretty good though.
who the fuck is their marketing team lol
