My brother has been on California State SSI for autism for the last 10 years, and he absolutely has to (no joke, HAS TO) spend all 720 bucks of his SSI every month, because if he puts it in the bank he risks losing his SSI altogether. In fact, from what I can tell, people who do this are actually put under investigation for fraud.Īnd yes, this system literally kills people. If they find out you’re twenty dollars over the resource limit, you have to give them all $400 back and you undergo an investigation of your funds to see if you will continue getting money.ĭoesn’t matter. Your benefits immediately get cut off if you’re a cent over $2,000.Īnd, even worse, you usually end up having to pay back every dollar the government gave you that month. Hell man, you just happen to budget for once in your life so that you can have some extra money in case something bad happens? In order for disabled people to receive any sort of financial assistant for their housing, food, bills, medical supplies, etc., they cannot ever have more than $2,000 of resources to their name. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.#raises hand #i dont understand #please explain?

Subscribe to my free weekly content round-up newsletter, God Rolls. An absolute win.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. It’s joyful, addicting and something I may play twice just for the hell of it. I would recommend Hi-Fi Rush to anyone, even many non-gamers. It feels like another High on Life situation (with more love from critics and no accompanying scandal).

I’m not sure I would have bought this game for $30, which is what it’s selling for on Steam, but the ability to download and play after the stealth drop generated a whole lot of instant goodwill toward Xbox and Game Pass and reminded me “oh yeah, that’s why I’m paying for this” even as it has lacked larger releases which were delayed out of 2022.

In the larger context of this release, this feels like the kind of win on Game Pass that Xbox needs. At first it seemed like Chai might be a Star Lord-but-worse knock-off, but he’s weirdly charming, and I enjoyed both his various team members and the bosses he’s tasked with taking down, many of which result in some really creative fights. I was also surprised just how much I liked the story and characters as well here.
