Hah Teppy that would be amazing.
Feel bad for the dude and his family but not shocked someone would want to kill him. Health insurance in this country is awful.

That was my first thought, meara. Insurance companies can and do bring on the rage. No idea if this was the case, but I can see a grieving person thinking this way.
I had to dig through emails to figure out that the insurance plan I will be switching to in 2025 because the premiums are cheaper than Kaiser is, in fact, United Healthcare (it's only referred to by initials most of the time and I was honestly only registering "Kaiser and not-Kaiser" as I went through Open Enrollment).

Witty tech writer. She also deferred from being interviewed by other media saying, “I’m not the best one for on camera interviews.”
Courtney Milan has a thread on BlueSky about why UnitedHealth is so problematic: [link] . Not, of course, that this justifies assassination, but still ...
Tom it sounds like he uses a Citibike? So maybe that makes it not a stolen opportunity? (Seems easily traceable but who knows)

That is amazing.
For lunch today I followed the microwave recipe for congee (that I have made before with success) using the last of my bones from the turkey carcass, some chicken stock that has been in the freezer for probably less than a year, and kasha (instead of rice) that I cooked yesterday for this very purpose. Also leftover gravy and droppings. It came out a bit soupy, but pretty tasty. Would probably benefit from a bit of cranberry sauce, but I don't have any
