It depends heavily on the State you live in and what your employer is willing to pay the insurance company. At my current job in my State, that $3000 per year would get me a $0 deductible. When I was below the poverty line, healthcare including dental through the state exchange was free (heavily subsidized to the point of being free, technically).
If you live in a predominantly red state that rejected federal funding or any kind of expansion under the ACA except what was required, it's definitely going to be shit.
It's a deeper belief than just EVs. At the beginning of the Obama administration, when there was the "cash for clunkers" program to buy back inefficient old vehicles, these people made a show of going out and buying massive Hummers and other horribly inefficient cars they'd drive around town in. When new efficiency rules went into place for halogen lightbulbs, they flocked to the stores to stock up on as many inefficient bulbs as possible.
They can be pushed to be good little consumers when needed, but it's almost always to promote inefficiency and oppose environmentalism.
Not sure about other agencies but CDC and specifically NCHS typically had to anonymize their health data before public release. If you could use other data points from within the government to connect the dots, that might be valuable to someone.
I have a tinfoil hat conspiracy theory that the Love is Blind/Married at First Sight shows are part of this. You've got a not so subtle focus on religion and marriage, a blind eye towards sexual assault, and Vanessa Lachey pestering past participants if they're popping out a progeny anytime soon.

Just in case you didn't know, Cara Cunningham is not a dude.
Not exactly a citation but it was pretty weird when someone found one of the DOGE staffers' participation in a hackathon around vote manipulation that got him real close with Musk as a result. Then he started wiping his connections once it was made public.

It really shouldn't be news, but remember....there are most likely a lot of morons out there who would still be shocked to hear about it. The ones who don't like to talk or read about politics, the uninformed voter. These are Americans we're talking about.
Same kinda thing as EUMETSAT, AFAIK
Mostly unrelated, but holy shit, it's taken me about a decade to realize that's why the play is called M. Butterfly and this comment just did it. I just never really thought about the title, but the ambiguity makes sense.
They have distinct blinking patterns as well. IIRC observing the pattern is one of the ways used to classify them.
TIL that's also the guy on the "hot fries" bag in the grocery store.
That's the thing that's confused me a bit. Project 2025 definitely calls for the dismantling and privatization of NOAA, but I didn't see anything specifically mentioning AccuWeather. IIRC the CEO of AccuWeather said it'd be way too costly for them to pick up all of the responsibilities they depend on NOAA for. At this point, I'd fully expect Musk to say his companies can handle it.
Every time I see him with his kid, I can't help but think of the Insufferable comic where the dude's got baby body armor
