  1. Anybody know if Kaiser has added zepbound to their system yet?

  2. Kaiser could care less about blocking your savings card and they are aware of this issue. The ONLY insurance company Eli Lilly will not work with is: Kaiser (I spoke with Eli Lilly savings card customer support today and that is what they told me). My friend and I both had prescriptions for Zepbound. She got to use the savings card I could not. Why? I have Kaiser!!!! I did not realize that there is a database that commercial pharmacies have access to so they already KNOW you are a Kaiser patient (you don't need to tell them - they know!) Kaiser blocks most savings cards including Zepbound. The reason explained to me by Kaiser pharmacy rep today is that they are a non-profit and therefore conflicts with their rules about recieving insurance payback's with savings cards. Kaiser sees Zepbound as "voluntary" and not necessary and so they will not make an exception for Zepbound savings cards (note: they have done it for other drugs but they don't care about this one - atricious position from a medical perspective). I recognize this makes NO sense because Kaiser will not prescribe or pay for Zepbound. The specific issue is that Kaiser refuses to "deny" the claim for meds which is how the savings card is activated (Eli Lilly wants to confirm that your insurance won't pay for the meds as a condition of using the card). I have NOT tried what i read is the workaround (go to a Kaiser affiliated commercial pharmacy - there are a couple of them that may not be near you such as Walgreens - but not EVERY Walgreens just a handful of them check the latest list from Kaiser) and then I guess THEY are able to get the denial and process the savings card.

  3. I can confirm all of this!!! Same research, same outcome. Additionally, I DID try affiliate pharmacies, and my plan with Kaiser says I can not use affiliate pharmacies. I delved into emergency situations like at a hospital or overnight, and they said they will approve only in an “emergency”. Being fat is not an emergency per Kaiser.

  4. Does your contract give them an opportunity for a walk through? A way to check if it’s satisfactory before final signatures? If so, then they should not have signed and paid you if it was not acceptable. This is all bluster and has no basis legally. Let the agents deal with this, do not communicate with this person. The details of the agreement do matter. I would fret over this. They will get nowhere on it.

  5. It’s technically on you to verify everything before the relevant deadline - but this is a big misrepresentation. Look up the states licensing board and start complaints/requests for compensation from the agent, and copy them - and sue this agent. It may technically be legal, but their license rules definately deal with this. Sue them so their insurance agent is involved.

  6. Making a “mistake” on a listing is allowed - this is beyond that. It’s fraud/misrepresentation. You can make sure the agent gets big fines or loses license. They will pay up in light of that.

  7. Omg the weddings! I still enraged at age 55, and the jewelry / diamond / ring thing. It’s such a blatant scam industry I can not understand spending this kind of money on performing arbitrary ceremony. NOOOO! It also makes me mad that nobody believes I truly hate the jewelry and did not want a wedding. Hate all ceremonies - they fuck w my brain for the logical/rational vacuum.

  8. After I eloped (didn't tell my parents about getting married for about four months afterwards), my mother insisted on hosting a "reception" for my new husband and me.

  9. What a nightmare!!! Also, use that China or get it out of your life!

  10. What I wish I had done before fostering: large remnant of sheet vinyl for the cat room. Have it now and the inevitable issues don’t stress me out like they did when I was worried about permanent smells!

  11. Love these ideas! Another manifestation of it: during lockdowns, when the world was not “out and about” I loved it with such a passion, I finally felt a weird satisfaction and relaxation I couldn’t define. I now think it’s tangential to this! The cat-reorientation comfort!

  12. Lord I feel this rage!!! “How dare you flippantly speak nonsense about this thing I clearly have a PHD in!” I feel so violated! It’s literally forcing me to play pretend to keep our interaction NT polite. When I feel a punch and lecture are just as valid.

  13. Omg feel this!! Sometimes I just want to stalk the F out of new family that stole my baby!!!! The grief and anger are real.

  14. The only thing I’ve had help me is recognizing and naming what’s going on. My Son and I have developed shortcuts to alert me when I am doing that, and just his kindness in helping me note it, has made me quicker to see it in general. Your description sounds exactly like me! I feel ya. I use to get so frustrated that people didn’t want to hear my brilliant insight right when I had it.

  15. One of my main concerns with PDA is that the way it's currently defined is really nebulous. "I don't always like doing things" = PDA. Your definition makes a lot more sense to me and also fits me to a t, to the point where I legit don't understand why everyone isn't like this. But they're definitely not.

  16. Omg I’m laughing, this manifesto is the fucking voice in my head almost every day.

  17. More info needed!! I don't suppose someone with an alcohol problem had no idea about the negative consequences of that, so I say have a glass if you want - if you are in a social setting!

  18. I vote women/identify as women or non binary, and moderation of dx shaming.

  19. I came here to ask y’all about shoe sizes. I’ve always been vexed by my unique traits: red hair, left handed, thin upper lip - but the worse is my shoe size: I’m 5’6 and wear a 12. Drives me nuts!

  20. As a family, we are very open and accepting - and when my 16 yr old casually mentioned he’s attracted to trans men and is Bi, I was unprepared and shocked at my own sadness and emotional difficulties. It seems like it should not be so hard for me, yet here I am shook. I don’t know why I feel bad, it’s very hard to process when it’s “not your story to tell”. I imagine a gender change could hold so many feelings - the struggle real! I hope time is the fixer of what ever weird unwarranted vexing felt.

  21. Omg same same same! Before I realized it was “only” me and an autistic sensitivity, I would include the discomfort and pain of makeup in my rants about how women are oppressed. Turns out it’s just a few of us ;)

  22. Girl, I feel you. I’ve had this simmering annoyance my whole life, I am mid 50’s now and I am struggling to get that “smile and nod” genie back in the bottle. This is valid, people are willfully ignorant!!! Many human minds are set up to operate that way. Read books by Daniel Kahneman on this… very enlightening. Helps to frame it as a behavior of the species instead of the affront to all that is holy.

  23. This is super hard. I’m so sorry that shook out like that. You got address? I am not above a little spying, and it’s a terrible idea and doesn’t help as you can’t do anything except a kitten napping. If you do it, hopefully it gives you some peace, adopters have no idea the emotional turmoil the foster families can go through!
