Supplement G has no Dental or Vision. WTF?? Everything but those two, unless it’s an emergency intervention, however that term gets applied. Where to look?

You'll need to buy standalone dental & vision coverage. All of the major carriers offer options, none are particularly great. If you really want dental & vision included with your medical benefits, you'll need to look to an Advantage plan. However, Advantage plans just bundle the same dental/vision you could buy on your own and you'd have to deal with prior auths etc. If you can afford it, go for the supplement + standalone dental & vision.

Nola is comus MCC is endymion

Ehhh…MCC probably has more Rex members than Endymion. Hermes is probably a better analog for MCC. But NOCC is definitely Comus/Achaeans et al

The first social security payments were made in 1937. Americans born in 1900 would have been 37 years old at the time ("approaching 40"). Of that cohort of people, only around 40% would go on to make it 65 years old.

So they, more likely than not, were going to die before age 65.

Again, this isn't complicated

It's not complicated, but you're interpreting it incorrectly.

40% of people born in 1900 would be expected to live until 65. However, many of them would die in the years between 1900-1937. Of the people born in 1900 who were still alive in 1937, a much greater percentage would be expected to live to 65+. In fact, the life expectancy of a 65 year old male in 1940 was 77 LINK.

So it stands to reason that a large majority of people in the US who were born in 1900 and lived until 1937 would be expected to live to 65+. Certainly much more than 40%.

"I can't reach my maximum level of enjoyment just learning the material because I'm so anxious about the midterm, so anxious about the papers, and because I know it's so harshly graded," she said. "If that standard is raised even more, it's unrealistic to assume that people will enjoy their classes."

I dunno. I thought part of becoming an adult was learning to find joy in things that are difficult. It's called growing as a person.

Squat and deadlift on the same day 3x/week is pretty aggressive

Moon landing truthers and flat earthers are a government psyop to discredit people who legitimately question the narrative on other topics. It allows the government to do some hand waving and say “oh, you think COVID was developed in a lab with US funding? you’re just like the flat earthers”.

Did you believe this obvious lie that there were no career fairs?
