Man, I wish Verd and Poe would just have sex already, you two are just like Han and Leia with your bickering.

It would be a magical and iconic relationship.

Poe: I love you.
Verd: I know.

With a knife you could cut the sexual tension. Oi vey!

To go back to the first post, one issue that I thought was very interesting was related to our public health care.

Of course, as everyone knows, Canada has public health care. This includes sex reassignment surgery. At least, it did until just this past summer.

In Alberta they decided that it no longer counted as a necessary procedure so it was reclassified as cosmetic, and those wanting to have it done must pay out of pocket.

I think this is awful. Opinions?

Eugh. It's just transphobia and greed. We're expendable and they want to lower costs


Actually, they're content to just look like they're lowering costs. The proportion of the health care budget we took up was trivial; cutting our coverage made no significant dent, but it did allow for certain pundits to b***h about how we're displacing cancer patients or something.

It totally would be an iconic relationship. Wait... does this mean I have to wear an uncomfortable steel bikini? GODDAMMIT.

So who gets to be creepy Luke who wants to mack with me even though I'm his twin sister?

It will be perfectly form-fitting, and you'll only be wearing it at the beginning.
