Losing myself in the design of someone else's website because my hockey team got the playoff boot in game 7. That's a normal response, right?

@nev I don't think there is, but you as an admin can grab it for them. What I'm wondering is what they could possibly need it for. Nothing user-facing asks for it...

@gocu54 Universal health care is not communist. Source: I live in Canada, which is not a communist country, and we have universal health care. As a disabled person, you right now have access to what you call communist health care.

@gocu54 Not quite. The insurance is provided by the government and paid for with your taxes. There's no such thing as a co-pay, there's no likelihood that the expensive surgery you need won't be covered by your insurance and so you'll need to go several hundred thousands of dollars into debt, and people who are unemployed like you are are still covered. So rather than working a shitty minimum wage job that kills your soul because that's the only way you can have health insurance, you can actually work a job that doesn't make you want to put your gun in your mouth. You're probably on your parents' health insurance right now, so you're shielded from this part. But if you weren't, it would be like your state's medicare/medicaid coverage. Not exactly the same, but similar to. Oh, and there's no such thing as an out of network doctor.

@gocu54 Ah. So it works sort of similarly to that, except that it's entirely funded by your taxes and that's everyone's baseline of coverage. We still have private health insurance options, but if you can't afford that, don't want that, or your employer doesn't provide that, you still have health care. But the major diference is I don't need to phone around to find out which doctors accept my insurance. They all do.

@countrymetalhead Are you allowed to spoil your ballot in US elections? Because otherwise, mandatory voting is just "pick from all of these sucky options". Spoiled ballots are legal in Australia.

@countrymetalhead Or perhaps they took a look at Harris versus Trump and decided that nobody on either side learned a goddamn thing. Either way, when your choices are turd soup or a shit sandwich, you can't really fault someone for skipping lunch.

Re last: If anyone asks you to do that regarding your alovertheplace.ca account, talk to me. I will nuke them and their instance from orbit.
