Damn it, one of these years, my spring won't be so completely fucked up that I miss bread day. I love bread day.

ETA: Malin is no longer with us, following a fire that was most likely caused by a lightning strike.

Internet was out at my house and I've barely started collecting Blurays. So I was really tired and wondered why Netflix wouldn't just mail me Blurays, as if that wasn't a thing that they'd ever done in the past.

At least I bought Duck Dodgers on Bluray. What a show.

#I could've gone to the library or local video places if that was an ongoing problem #But I mean why not just fucking mail me a thing?

Oh wow I totally forgot about this ad. Talk about a nostalgia trip!

#Forbidden Solitaire #The videos were really high effort #Youtube

this game is a comedy

#Forbidden Solitaire

I was really looking forward to playing Forbidden Solitaire because I am really into Grey Alien's other weird solitaire/RPG games and this one looked super weird. And it's great! I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about the creepypasta shit, but I will admit that it did provide the biggest scare in the game. See, the real terror was...

(spoiler)

#To be clear there was an absurd amount of effort put into the creepypasta element #For example there was video including an episode of a show spoofing Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction?#So it's really high effort creepypasta shit #But the game really didn't need all of that to sell me on the concept of an edgy solitaire game #Forbidden Solitaire

Looking forward to being told I'm "getting what I voted for" even though that's probably going to get even harder soon.

#Fucking state has rendered me poorer and it'll make moving harder

For some reason, there's a guy who's been selling weird lawn gnomes in front of a pawn shop that's within walking distance. I want a bootleg Sonic lawn guy so bad because I think it's really funny. I don't know what I'd do with it because I'm not really a Sonic person but it's just so silly looking.

#He's not associated with the pawn shop #I've seen a similar display in front of a shuttered CVS #I've played Sonic games but I never really became obsessive #I hate it when he gets hit and drops all the rings #I know that's just a Sonic thing #And it bugs me

I wouldn't wish applying for Medicaid in Texas on my worst enemies, even if they voted for it to fail. But it's not because I'm virtuous or anything. I wish all kinds of other terrible things to happen to them. Maybe they can accidentally shoot themselves with their own guns or have a bad reaction to raw milk.

#I think I'm finally making progress but goddamn #I hate this shit #It's fucking dehumanizing and people keep giving me bad information #Last week someone at HHS read a textwall about waivers to me before telling me that I'm not talking to the right department #And she gave me a phone number that ended up routing to a clinic instead #The recording didn't tell me the clinic's hours until I was on hold for 40 minutes #I was disconnected due to “unforeseen circumstances”#Because the place closed at 4:30 #I tried calling again and after being on hold for 30 minutes #I was informed that as of January that clinic couldn't do shit with waivers anymore #So I called another number and I probably won't be able to get Medicaid for up to six months #Just holy fuck why

OK, I've recently watched

RoboCop 3

RoboCop 2014

The original 80s cartoon

RoboCop: Alpha Commando

RoboCop: Prime Directives

Some of RoboCop: The Series (still working on that one)

Much to my annoyance, Alpha Commando was the only tie-in that was at all watchable. It's actually a fun show even though it's a fucking action figure commercial AU. I wouldn't rank it as one of my fave shows of all time, but it was alright. The theme song is just like some weird OCP propaganda. I've only watched it once because it's such an earworm.

#I already watched RoboCop 2 so that's not on the list #It was fine #I'm more intrigued by its weird production history than the movie #I should watch National Lampoon's RoboDoc even though it looks fucking awful #That shitty comedy came out BEFORE the RoboCop documentary which is also called RoboDoc #That's the one with the “Robo wants Oreo!” bit #I should watch that too #Youtube

I'm fortunate enough to live in an urban area with something of a safety net for uninsured people. It's not perfect because there are co-pays and it's only accepted by certain providers, but it's something. The fucking thing is that because my state insists on offloading Medicaid to private insurance companies, there are sometimes advantages to this. I don't think I would've been able to get to a psychiatrist as quickly as I did recently if I was still on Medicaid.

But it's limited to certain clinics and a hospital system, so I don't really know what options I've got for pain management.

#There are medication discounts too #I've gotta figure out how to set that up #I think I'm past the point where standard coupons are going to help for some crap

I guess I'm applying for Medicaid for a third fucking time. My state makes it so fucking complicated that I've applied incorrectly twice, and I'm in a mandatory coverage group. They probably just do this shit to fuck with people because there's no way this is saving the state money.
