Thread of assholes

Dropping these on the healthcare topic makes sense… but the level of assholery displayed firmly plops these shitty assholes here:

Then there’s Anthem Blue Cross:

I can’t find the meme, but

When the apocalypse happens, the oligarchs will protect themselves in their underground bunkers, and it will be someone’s job to fill the air vents with concrete.

It won’t be a job, in the usual sense; plenty of folks will likely volunteer.

Maybe this will encourage for-profit hospitals to decrease what they charge for anesthesia.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

A siege that not only blocks the delivery of food and water, but also air. As Richard Pryor would have said in that circumstance, “That’s a siege for your ass!”

There could be fights over who gets to do it.

A 13-Year-Old With Autism Got Arrested After His Backpack Sparked Fear. Only His Stuffed Bunny Was Inside.

On the second day of school this year in Hamilton County, Tennessee, Ty picked out a purple bunny from hundreds of other plushies in his room. While his mom wasn’t looking, the 13-year-old snuck it into his backpack to show to his friends.

It was the 10th anniversary of his favorite video game franchise, Five Nights at Freddy’s, and Bonnie the bunny is one of the stars. Ty has autism and Bonnie is his biggest comfort when he gets agitated or discouraged. No one other than Ty, not even his mom, is allowed to touch Bonnie.

Ty was new to Ooltewah Middle School, located just east of Chattanooga. In class that morning, he told his teacher he didn’t want anyone to look in his backpack, worried they would confiscate his toy, according to Ty and his mom. When the teacher asked why, Ty responded, “Because the whole school will blow up,” he and his mom recalled.

School officials acted quickly, Ty’s mom said: The teacher, who had only known Ty for one day, called a school administrator, who got the police involved. They brought Ty to the counselor’s office and found Bonnie in the backpack. As Ty stood there, he said, confused about what he had done wrong, the police handcuffed him and patted him down before placing him in the back of a police car.

“I think they thought an actual bomb was in my backpack,” Ty told ProPublica and WPLN. But he didn’t have a bomb. “It was just this, right here,” he said, holding Bonnie. “And they still took me to jail.”

I suppose his support of DOGE has nothing to do with the fact Tesla is a major employer in his district?

Also, views are not agreement

“I had to sit near a gay couple! I guess I have to beat the hell out of my GF now.” Yeah, that makes all kinds of sense, you rich, privileged asshat!

I had to read that twice to make sense of it. It still makes no sense. Asshat indeed.

The nice thing about “worst week in my life” is that the next week can be worse.

“Jesus Christ, dammit,” Fanjul says as the officer walks away. “This is like the worst week I’ve ever had in my life.”

Yeah, I think the week is probably worse for the woman who he beat up. Hoping she gets a lawyer and sues the family.

And a previous assault? This appears to be a pattern with him. He needs to be locked up, but being Florida, not holding my breath.

True, but I have to admit that this has made me think about how much I’d love to see more CEOs in the news.

Uh . . . basic physiology? My gut (ha) feeling is that one of them should just take a dump in the hallway. Right outside the door to the principle’s office. But they’d just get in more trouble.

This REALLY pisses me off, for IBD reasons.
