U50 PTS - New Home Goods and long-awaited furnishings!

I was compiling a text list of all of the new Housing items in U50, but may be a while. In the meantime, check out Futerko's video.

And here are a few I'm particularly excited about! Starting with...

Mushroom Buckets! 🎉🍄

Folks have been asking for these base-game mushroom containers for ages. I was really happy to see them in the list of craftable plans on PTS. Gotta update the Master List!

Sadly those and the new Breton plans will probably be hard-to-find and very expensive for some time.

Ropes and Chains!

Sadly the length is not toggleable, but with 3/5 of these being cheap Home Goods items (from Rozhika in Daggerfall, Glenumbra) and with such a variety included, I can hardly complain! The HG ropes' prices are 45, 45, and 90 gold, respectively. All of these have collision, except the big spiked chain in the first pic.

Panel and Support Beam

Yes, I'm extremely excited about flat, plain pieces of wood. We don't have enough! These will be extremely useful for building.

Giant Mossy Boulders

While I wish these were the entirely moss-covered / top-mossed varieties so that we could use them for terraforming, I'm always very happy to get more huge boulders for cover-up and landscaping! The "entrance" one is fun.

Rock path, ruined platform, and crate stacks

While the ruined platform and rubble are not of the Stone-Nest style ruins I've been hoping and pleading for (of course that wouldn't make sense for Glenumbra!), I am excited to see these. The rubble path would be really cool for magic builds if place in the air, and even has a little dirt animation when you walk on it. A curved version would be welcome!

The stacks of crates and logs have interesting uses too!

With all of these awesome things added to Home Goods, perhaps we can even hope for more to come in the future – including ladders?

#ESO Housing Wishlist: Rustic Home Goods –

Refresh old Home Goods vendors with "new" items (old assets): More old plants, and more Common & Rough items – like these wobbly little ladd

Lastly, this cheese, unlocked via achievement, has pretty purple butterflies coming out of it – I wish those were an isolated effect furnishing!

advice that has literally saved and improved my life

[sandersstudies]

“They’re just looking for attention.”

Oh, a human being is seeking a social response? Human being, the social animal wired to make and track social connection? A human desires the vital blood that permitted their species to survive for millennia? The human being who was born completely helpless and primed in every way by nature to seek attention and help from their community?

Wow that’s crazy. How embarrassing. Humiliating even. Should we isolate them from community? Should we call Wire Mother?

absolutely flabbergasting to see people who have so enthusiastically succumbed to despair. like okay denethor, but some of us are gonna actually face the armies of mordor in battle nonetheless.

You still have time. Time to change your wardrobe. Time to get divorced and married again. Time to change majors. Time to learn a trade from scratch. Time to pay off debts. Time to travel. Time to love and be loved. You still have your whole life ahead. Whether you're 19 or 66. You still have so much time. But you have to take it.

seeing straight men be disgusted by booktok smut recommenders has actually radicalized me to the side of booktok smut recommenders. girls your taste may be atrocious but i will never disparage you for exposing mainstream discourse to the concept of soaking through your underwear. spent my whole life listening to men talk about penises it’s about time they get jumpscared by women talking about pussy in crude detail on social media. go forth and goon my warriors

[insomniac-arrest]

I work at a bookstore and hearing one of my male coworkers call smutty romantasy "the downfall of society" because it's "literally just porn" radicalized me

Men have an entire industry. Entire industries dedicated to their sexualities. Let women have fantasy sex. there's not even a camera crew involved.

[red-dead-sakharine]

Men who clutch their pearls over smut books, while also complaining that the newest female game character isn't hypersexualized for the male gaze, belong in the bin.

Equality means that everyone gets to salivate over fantasies, not just cis het men.

Algorithms are manipulating young men.

Men are putting their feelings of toxic masculinity before the safety of women.

Every time.

Remember, if you want to qualify to decide what counts as "unnecessary care," don't go to medical school. Go to business school.

How it works on the inside - billing inside hospitals and clinics pt2

Second post is where can the system break down in order of process not frequency. Depending on length each department may need their own.

First up is Patient Access (PAS).

These folks are extremely underpaid, generally minimum wage. McDonald's honestly does pay better depending on location especially for the hoops these folks have to jump thru it may be a better gig. Their job is generally thankless and extremely hard customer service. No one is happy to be in a hospital, they are in pain generally, meaning when they get asked a billion questions and not immediately helped they get upset (justifiably so).

Sometimes in smaller facilities the whole auth team can be like 1-3 people max. Other times it can be 20+

All of this is to explain the extremely high turnover in these roles - which of course lead to errors.

So what ARE the common errors for this team?

Wrong insurance. Not getting updated insurance from the patients generally, which means we bill the wrong insurance, which means it takes longer to get a claim paid. This can also mean we generate the claim wrong depending on the type of facility.

No Authorization. Prior post touched on this - lets say the insurance approves you 5 physical therapy visits. If they don't re-request more at the end of the 5th visit, you come in and see them, you could potentially be on the hook to pay that on your own. How does that happen? One of those aggravating forms you signed at the first visit saying you will take responsibility whatever the insurance doesn't pay. If you aren't careful they can try and make that cover their slip ups - as someone who has personally had this happen to me with PT, watch them like a damn hawk and demand to know why. Best practice is that a facility/clinic requests an authorization at the time of scheduling and before the procedure or weekly/monthly.

(this is really 2b) but if you try and see a new specialist and they do not have an auth it is not their fault, its whoever referred you. Lets say you need physical therapy (PT) and your primary sends you to a local one. Your primary's office is responsible for asking the insurance company's approval or authorization. The PT is responsible for every visit/service AFTER that first one.

Bad Personal Info. Premera will see a claim and say "I don't know Jane Smith" hit full deny and walk away from it. Smith could be a misspell from the registration team; or Jane could have changed their name with a gender change; or marital status change; or Jane moved, insurance found out but the facility didn't.

Missing Info. Like they did not request all the forms they were meant to. Generally this applies to inpatient stays and those on state/government insurance. There are more forms and those are required by law to be signed. Example is there are specific forms for L&I - like you get injured on the job. If they don't get that form filled out, the billers have no idea to send the claim to THAT insurance and not whatever is your primary.

All of these are generally the fault of the FACILITY and not the insurance company.

But what about denying authorizations which is 100% on the slimy insurance shits who do that often? That falls on a nurse or doctor to have to hop on the phone and argue with them. Sometimes they can be slimy enough to deny the medication if it isn't generic, or only approve 3 visits instead of 5 and make the staff jump thru more hoops. That re-auth could mean that the doctor has to document 10x more than what they do for a regular visit, and now instead of doing it every 5th visit they have to do it every 3rd. Whyyy?

Attrition. If it's as painful as flipping possible maybe someone in this whole process will screw it up or give up, then the insurance company can deny and get out of paying; and if you signed one of those pesky forms and aren't questioning YOU may end up with the bill.
