Thank you, Nima!

Its all yo momma’s fault!

Boycott!

I’m not exactly an expert so please research all of this further, but my understanding is that you have a few options. In no particular order:

1. COBRA. I know it’s expensive ($800 / mo or more) but you’re still getting the “group” discount your employer gets. Cheaper than buying insurance on the “open market” without getting your employer’s group discount.
2. Major medical. This is health insurance but only covers major incidents. No preventative care. Shitty but better than worst case medical problems bankrupting you.
3. Open market insurance. Just buying straight from a health insurance company. Very expensive. Try Obamacare first.
4. Obamacare. This has different names in different states. Tiered costs based on income. You’ll want to research how it looks at income because this might inform the timing of leaving your job/current health insurance.
5. No insurance. Terrible option, but you can go to the emergency room and they have to treat you.
6. Other insurance. I believe some places like Costco (Sam’s club?) offer health insurance for businesses.
   The whole thing is a confusing mess and no options are perfect.

Have you talked with other small business owners? Do you have connections to the business community that could explain what they do? If you don’t have anyone to network with about this, FIND some people. Even just by walking into their business and telling your story. Many communities have business incubators or other networking for startups. At least one mentor could make a HUGE difference for you.

Is starting the business and ramping it up for some time THEN quitting possible? This could make sense for a lot of reasons, not just health insurance.

If nothing else, you could work long enough to save up 6 months or a year of COBRA and then quit to do your business full time.

Best wishes!

IDK much about it, but this exists:

Beautiful.

How to get more absolute shit from Goog?

The interwebs existed long before Google. They will continue to exist long after Google.

Yes

It might not be the door opener. The door/springs/track may just need adjustment.

I would call your local hardware store and ask for a recommendation for a “garage door guy”. Then follow his advice.

Be VERY careful with garage door springs! They can kill you. Torsion springs especially.

I had coworker get breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. They made a nipple for her, I think from skin.

Boycott!

Much worse than we thought. How shocking. /s

I was not just making a joke, amigo. I am old enough that I used this stuff back in the day. I graduated from dialing into BBSes on my Commode 64 to this stuff. And I am amazed and happy that it is still around.

Amazing! Thanks!

But what about Veronica?

Is radio dead now? Aren’t podcasts dead now too? Isn’t it all youtube vids now? What is even happening?

You kids get off my…um…media…

DOT MATRIX WITH STEREO SOUND

Consumers are getting fucked. Media companies will continue to make it worse while trying to improve their bottom line. How long until it is all pay per view at sky high prices that only keep going up?

I try to own my media in physical form as much as possible. But I don’t think it will be long until physical is not an available format. Or unaffordable, like vinyl is now.

We should have resisted and stopped the DMCA. We should stop all media being rental only. But we do not resist, we comply. We bend over and get fucked like the sheeple we are.

Until consumers take control of their government they will continue to take it up the ass from corporations. They count on you to comply.

I would start reading Rolling Stone and similar stuff. The radio should also help.

Or are you looking specifically for only hip-hop?

I imagine the answer to this depends greatly on when a person became blind. I assume you’re asking about people blind since birth, but that’s not all blind people.
