It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Depends on if you consider 35 affordable :(
I personally can afford it because I'm privileged af, but that's unaffordable for most burgerlanders. Also, let me guess: it's mean tested too?
It's for senior citizens or people that are on Medicare, which means being a senior citizen or having a crippling disability.
Kind of lower price up to the manufacturer if not on Medicare

35 for what? A dose? A day? A week? A month?
Maybe a month. Idk what amount they (maker) calls a month supply
The number really matters. Huge difference in affordability between a day/week/month.
I know. I've only found it mentioned as month, but again only for Medicare unless maker decides to change
$35/month (though there are a number of accessories necessary for administration, depending on method, so that's by no means the whole cost of managing insulin dependency)
