For those of y’all curious because this blog had been messed with by whatever reason, I moved over to @winloseorcharmed.   If you want to reach me, that’s where to do it.

“As soon as–,” the Doctor started to answer, and then froze when he felt the telepathic brush against his mind. Brown eyes widened, met Melinda’s. “Oh yes, I felt that. And I don’t like it.”

It wasn’t him, wasn’t his Ship. That there was another strong telepath around somewhere… he really didn’t like that. 

The Time Lord muttered a Gallifreyan curse, turned. “Back to the TARDIS,” he snapped over his shoulder at Melinda. “Now.”

However there wasn’t enough time, a tall and lean man had Melinda by the throat.    It’s voice was a harsh whisper.   “Oh what a delightful treasure you have.    An empath of all things here, and so delightful.   “No need to leave, we would like to have you for dinner.”

Melinda rolled her eyes.    “Teine are they meat eaters and any weaknesses in their head?”

Okay I have set up a blog to write Melinda and y’all can see tags and everything, so find me here: @winloseorcharmed   I will doing replies over there asap.

Update, still nothing from Tumblr, it has been five days since I reported the issues.      Has anyone else had this issue?    How long did it take to get fixed (shadowbanned)?

“Yeah, I know. I’m working on a plan to make sure telling her is safe, remembering past lives can get-messy. Persephone was powerful, and she was less volatile than some of the other’s but according to Hades she…had her moments, if her memories are woken up suddenly with no preparation it could fracture Sophie’s mind and soul.” What Melinda didn’t need to know was the extent of that plan, and how central she was to it.

”Didn’t I hear that Kieran and Alicia are getting divorced?” Cerberus left head cocked to the side at the fact that Kieran’s name being mentioned twice, he knew that something was wrong because it’d been so long since he’d been home. No one had said what it was. He wasn’t exactly the most intelligent creature, but he was about as smart as the average 5 year old.

“You know what? Never mind-” He could deal with how much harder it would make his plan if it wasn’t true later. “Cerberus, I found Mommy but someone took her.” Suddenly the three headed canine stood at attention and turned to look at Nicholas, a small whimper and then a low growl coming out of his throats. It seemed to echo due to coming from all three of his heads.

“They’ll work it out,” Melinda said, she didn’t know if she believed or not but she had already lost hope of Kieran noticing her and she refused to be the reason of a break up.    So she would make sure he was healthy by the end of this so he could see his family again.    “We need to make sure no fractures then.” She agreed.   

She fascinating watching Cerberus go ready on the prowl.   “Go time then Nik?” She was ready to do what was necessary to save them.

Okay so apparently Tumblr has shadow banned me.   I can’t use messager, no one can find my blogs or look at notes.    I’m waiting for a response from them on what’s going on.     I don’t really  post NSFW content, if this isn’t cleared up by this time next week I will be moving Melinda to a different blog.    I don’t want to but it doesn’t look like I will be given a choice.

Billionaire Mark Cuban Opens Online Pharmacy To Provide Affordable Generic Drugs

The company was launched out of stealth last year.

The Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs Company (MCCPDC) is a registered pharmaceutical wholesaler and purchases drugs directly from manufacturers, bypassing middlemen to lower the price of more than 100 medications, it said in a statement.

For example, the leukemia drug imatinib is priced at $47 a month on MCCPDC compared to the $9,657 retail price.

MCCPDC CEO Alex Oshmyansky reached out to Cuban with an idea for a low-cost generic drug company in a cold email. It was launched in January last year. They were motivated in part by “Pharma Bro” Martin Shrkeli’s outrage-producing price hike of the lifesaving drug Daraprim from $13.50 to $750 per tablet while Shrkeli was CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals. Cuban told Forbes last year the pricing for generic drugs was “ridiculous.” He said he decided to put his name on the company to “show capitalism can be compassionate and to send the message I am all in.” It’s not clear how much he had invested in the company.

Gods, I want this to be true so badly.

[kaelio]

It is true. Mark Cuban is doing this in part because he wants to run for President in 2024 if Biden doesn’t run again (Mark ran in 2020). He’s a Democrat and “I personally made medication affordable” will give him an immense edge. He’s far from perfect but this is a good thing he’s doing. Also he seems to genuinely believe this stuff, but either way, site’s up and operational and you can start any time.

just so people understand what a big deal this is, i ran some fast price comparisons. goodrx is an app that offers discounts on medications for which you have to pay out of pocket, whether because your insurance doesn’t cover them or because you don’t have insurance. if you don’t have insurance, goodrx is often about as good as it gets, so i’m using their prices for my comparison.

please note that prices are location dependent on goodrx—it shows you the options at pharmacies near your location. i’m in pittsburgh, pa; if you’re in a different part of the country and you try this, you may get slightly (or wildly) different numbers. 

fluoxetine is generic prozac. thirty 20mg capsules costs $12.80 at my cheapest local pharmacy. costplus has it for $3.90.

atorvastatin is generic lipitor. thirty 40mg tablets is $10.95 at my cheapest local pharmacy. costplus has it for $4.20.

omeprazole is generic prilosec. thirty 20mg capsules is $13.90 at the cheapest local pharmacy; $4.20 at costplus.

aripiprazole is generic abilify. thirty 10mg tablets is $17.73 at the cheapest local pharmacy (and $260.60 at the most expensive—and that’s with a discount, still, yikes); $6.00 at costplus. 

lamotrigine xr is generic lamictal xr. thirty 25mg tablets is $36.59 at the cheapest local pharmacy; $8.40 at costplus. 

maybe that doesn’t seem like a huge discount, but the goodrx prices change *all the time*—last time i used it to buy fluoxetine, which was in the last couple of years, it was $31. also, many people are on multiple medications, or have multiple people in a household taking multiple medications, and $5 off every prescription adds up real fast. 

this is an objectively fantastic thing and a huge deal, and i hope they’re wildly successful.

HE HAS MY PRESCRIPTION ON HERE FOR $4.20.

THE CHEAPEST I CAN GET IT IN PERSON ANYWHERE IS $13 AND THE STANDARD PRICE FOR THE GENERIC IS $82.

TAMIFLU IS ON HERE FOR UNDER $4. IT’S AN ANTIVIRAL USED TO TREAT SEVERE CASES OF INFLUENZA AND REGULARLY COSTS OVER $100.

There is a medicine on here called Valcyte, it’s an HIV medication, he’s offering it for $100.20 which sounds outrageous (and I mean still kind of is but wait for it, wait for it) UNTIL YOU REALIZE ON GOODRX IT’S LISTED FOR $179 AS THE ABSOLUTE CHEAPEST PRICE I CAN FIND AND MY LOCAL WALGREENS SELLS IT FOR $1,009 FOR A MONTH’S SUPPLY.

This man is literally going to save lives. Jesus christ. I could cry.

“Not exactly, I had them since I took over the Underworld in that life. But they always liked Persephone more than they liked me and could find her wherever she went, and they know The Underworld better than-well even me probably. They’ll be able to track her down, we’ll just have to hope that Selene was stupid enough to have them together.”

The trick would be keeping up with him once he told the three headed dog what he needed him for, he was likely to run off the second that he got the scent of her soul. And well he would be able to keep track of him with his enhanced hearing? He would prefer that he not burst into whatever trap Selene was sure to have laying in wait on his own.

“When are you going to tell her?” Melinda felt the need to ask.   IT was strange knowing these things.   “My cousin isn’t dumb, she’ll notice things.”    There had to be a reason for all of this.     She shook her head.    “We should get to saving everyone, questions can wait until everyone is safe.    Sophie with you, Kieran with Alicia, Kia with Peter, and Ben with Connie.   Exactly how it’s supposed to be.”

“It’s in the Queen DNA to be worriers,” Gabe lifted Melinda’s hand to his lips and pressed a kiss to her knuckles.  He knew his Dad worried about his Mom every day, even when they’d been together half their lives; until Melinda had walked into that bar that night he’d never really thought he’d feel that way about anyone.  “You hungry? I’ll cook, or order takeout, whatever you want - and it looks pretty quiet on the crimefighting front tonight, so you have my undivided attention for back rubs, foot rubs, belly rubs - “ he grinned and gently patted her belly, “ - anything you need.”

Melinda smiled at him and pulled him into the chair.    “Maybe I just want you right here, despite she felt big as house, there was still enough room for Gabe.    “Maybe I just want you to stay right here and go to sleep,” she suggested.

“Do you even have to ask, Mels?” Chris shot back to his sister. “I once scattered an Elder’s orbs and sent him to Valhalla, remember?” He smirked, enjoying the looks on the Elders’ faces.

Goddess, these witches were even worse than the Whitelighter Elders in his home universe, and that was saying something since witches in this universe were all-female.

“So, Darklighters?” he asked casually, knowing the answer but wanting to double-check with Melinda.

Melinda nodded, “Time to cut and run.”    Melinda pulled Damon with her as she pulled out a wand.    “Time to go.” She told them.    She wrote in the air and a portal opened.    She began to orb vials with her.   “Time for some unconvential rescuing!” She said and began  to orb in, this happened very fast.

Damon bristled at the word contained and opened his mouth for a sharp retort at for the greater good, but Melinda beat him to it. And then she was walking over to him, kissing him…

Shock had him freezing for a moment before he found himself returning the kiss, his hands almost immediately resting on her waist. Dimly he was aware of shouts of horror from the elder witches, of Chris facepalming right after glaring daggers at the two of them.

Damon didn’t care. Though as much as he slightly resented being referred to as the Halliwells’ Darklighter (he wasn’t a pet, thank you very much), it was certainly better than the alternative. And besides, he liked the reminder that the three of them were in this together, and Mels had no intention of leaving him behind.

When the kiss was finally broken, he couldn’t resist giving the circle of witches a smug look. Then it sharpened into a glare.  ❠Fahren Sie zur Hölle, meine Damen.❝

Melinda didn’t speak any german but she felt the rage from him, and she could get the over all feeling.    It was odd, she was no empath but she understood.   “About time blow this pop stand.” She commented.    “Hey Chris how good is your remote orbing?” She called to him and could see the witches become confused and unsure.     They didn’t know how to handle Halliwells, they were wild cards.    It should be impossible to them that a male had powers.

They were about to abduct some Darklighters.
