I like code, BJJ, Raiders, Kings, comics, and stuff. Oh and some people, there are people I like too. Quite a bit in some cases.

The inventors of insulin sold their patents for $1 in 1923 - almost 100 years ago. It is a crime against humanity that insulin is made by corporations that care only about maximizing profits, not saving lives. Insulin should cost $0.

Wow. This is unhinged. I’m literally looking at our voter registration database on my other screen. Right now.
We can’t indulge these insane lies any longer. As a party. As a state. As a country.
This is as readily falsifiable as 2+2=5. If we don’t call this out...
