California gets the first state-funded, no restrictions, $1000 guaranteed income for foster youth and pregnant people

Dr. Google and You

The other day I was feeling a little dizzy and I didn’t know why I was feeling that way. Everyone suggested that I should go see a doctor, but I am one of those stubborn people who don’t like to see a doctor.

What a great guy. Not!
