In Pulp Fiction, while Winston Wolf’s character in undeniably cool, why exactly did Vincent & Jules need his help in the first place? Aside from telling them to take the car/body to Monster Joe’s, what other vital advice did he actually provide them with?
He tells them to put the body in the trunk, clean up the blood & guts, cover the seats with old towels, and drive the car to a place where it/Marvin’s body can be disposed of. They couldn’t figure any of that out on their own?
Several folks have noted that they’re not too bright and many people panic in a crisis situation...but they’re supposed to be professional hitmen. Shooting & killing people is kind of their thing. Have they never been expected to clean up the mess if something goes wrong?
Even if The Wolf was needed, couldn’t he have talked them through it over the phone instead of making them wait 20 minutes or whatever for him to show up, especially given that the clock was ticking before Bonnie got home?

Decided to check in on a few states at the county level again. Here's California. Good grief.

Journalistic ethics question: If you post a blog entry today & then discover you made a factual error, you should correct it. However, what if you look at something you wrote, say, 5 years ago and realize that you had something factually wrong at the time? 1/
You can obviously add a correction, but what if the entire premise (or a major portion of it) turns out to simply be dead wrong? Do you delete/unpublish it? Add a note at the top saying "everything below turned out to be nonsense?" How far back do you take that sort of thing?
For instance, here's my very first ACA Signups blog post, which I wrote over at @DailyKos back on October 11, 2013, before ACASignups.net was even created. I added the following catch-all mea culpa for the first month of entries:

📣 THE BIG ONE: CALIFORNIA: #ACA Medi-Cal expansion enrollment up 17% since COVID hit; total Medi-Cal enrollment up 9%:
acasignups.net/21/06/09/calif…
⚠️ If the Supreme Court strikes down the #ACA (their ruling could come as soon as TOMORROW), up to 5.85 MILLION Californians would lose their healthcare coverage, in most cases likely almost immediately.
HEY HEALTHCARE TWITTER: Does anyone know what the heck happened to *non-ACA* Medi-Cal enrollment in Sept/Oct 2017?? I find it difficult to believe that 2 million people suddenly enrolled in a single month w/out any major expansion policy going into effect. cc: @aewright

Yesterday, @DrSriram (who I have great respect for) snidely claimed that those who support a PO over M4All define "universal" coverage as "excluding reproductive rights."

I noted in passing that some (not all) M4All folks are willing to do just that. This was his response: 1/
So I decided to check something. Now, obviously this isn't remotely scientific and I have no idea who most of those who voted are. HOWEVER... 2/
You'll see that several folks who responded appear to be pretty sincere both in their argument for doing exactly this *if* that's what it took.

One, in fact, is the co-chair of the Detroit DSA Single Payer community...who I also respect. 3/

👏👏👏 WA, CO & NV have now each passed their own versions of a Public Option (WA's has actually been running for a year already).

There's caveats on all three--WA & CO's are only "quasi-public," while NV's won't actually be implemented for a few years...but this is still huge.
Here's my write-up about Washington State's "Cascade Care 2.0" quasi-PO program: acasignups.net/21/06/08/washi…
Here's my write-up about the "Colorado Option:" acasignups.net/21/05/27/color…

🚨🚨🚨 Yeah, here we go again: The fate of the #ACA & healthcare coverage for *up to 35 million* Americans could be decided THIS MORNING. acasignups.net/21/06/06/here-…
As @CMSGov confirmed yesterday, the total number of Americans who would lose healthcare coverage if the Supreme Court strikes down the #ACA is likely over 31 million...and possibly as high as 35 million by my estimates in a worst-case scenario. acasignups.net/21/06/05/aspe-…
Anyway, as always, @SCOTUSblog will be live-blogging this morning's opinions, which start at 10am. Opinions are posted every 10 minutes. There's 23 cases left to announce from this session, presumably between now and June 30, minus weekends.
