How Much Will Obamacare's Penalties Cost You?
Obamacare's provisions for those who choose to ignore the individual mandate and not get insurance coverage are fairly simple. Next year, families who don't have eligible insurance will pay $95 per adult and $47.50 per child, with the total amount for each family capped at $285 or 1% of income above the filing threshold, whichever is greater. In 2015, those figures go up to $325 per adult and $162.50 per child, with caps of $975 or 2% of income above the filing threshold. The following year, Obamacare imposes penalties of $695 per adult and $345.50 per child up to $2,085 or 2.5% of income above the filing threshold. For any month without coverage, you'll pay a twelfth of the penalty amount, although you can have up to a three-month gap in coverage without incurring a penalty.

Definitely want to look at what it says about exemptions and percentages of health care provided by insurance for this, because the 60% thing makes me wonder if my own insurance covers the requisite amount of my medical costs and when they start tabulating it. If it doesn't, my bill goes up because I have to get at least the next tier of coverage.

I am so consumed with stress right now it's making my skin act up in ways that I don't get into detail about. I don't know when I'm under stress, but the body sure does. Skin irritations, blemishes, stys...and waking up in the middle of the night due to worrying.

I'm gonna spend the last week of school on a flick for the seniors, extra time for their projects, and getting the last assignments in. 'cause I just cannot do anything else. I am blown. I couldn't sleep, and I've spent the last couple hours reading Young Avengers vol.1 because (okay, partly 'cause it's awesome) and largely because it took my mind off things.

I have a good secure thing down here. I have a great thing up north. In a perfect world, I could just merge them. But I live in an imperfect world, and the waiting game 'till July is killing me.

Y'know, it's funny. Whenever I used to say the Pledge of Allegiance, it meant something. Now, I don't really know what I'm pledging to. And a country built on the Constitution wouldn't feel the need to force kids to say it every damn day.

I don't hate the lady in the harbor. Far from it. But damn if I'm not sick of people who put social agenda (on both sides) before Liberty.

This miniseries is an awesome read. It hits the larger points of Norse myth, including a scene straight out of the Lokasenna, and demonstrates Loki's character beautifully. We get to see the Aesir from his point of view, see Thor's actions from his point of view, and it never dwelt on any of Loki's misfortunes or embarrassments -- just used them to keep the story going.

And the part where Loki answers a prayer where other will not...it will likely fuel something in my own works. I loved reading this.

Major thank yous to everyone who gave me suggestions and instructions on the my ebook requests post. I'll respond individually later--RL is just kicking my ass right now.

If it's any consolation, I've got about four pages into the next (last?) OBII chapter, a good couple pages into the next Loki chapter, and a damn good portion of a Loki fic that I won't post until I'm done. Plus myriad other fics I'm working on that haven't been posted and omg the writing...I have to finish at least another fic soon!

I'm just glad the Loki fic I started turned out to be the continuation of the Loki fic I'd started before, without my knowing. Thank goodness.

Crap. Crap crap crap. Oh my god, I just remembered a post I wanted to reply to, but it got swallowed by my memory and I can't find it again, so I think I accidentally deleted it from my email.

To whoever asked, yes, I do have a tumblr that I'm going to start using more often and actually post fic to when I actually write any, and I never mind anyone following me at all. It's http://kc-anathema.tumblr.com/ and I seriously have done almost nothing with it except reblog now and then. I just...it never occurred to me that people ask if they can and it threw me a bit for a loop. So. There we go. I am so sorry for not replying sooner, and not in a more personal fashion.

This is going to sound odd, but I require recommendations for reading material. Specifically, I need two types of books.

One--pulp novels. Preferably scifi or adventure, noir crime only if need be. Cheap, tawdry stuff the kind you pick up like candy. No romance novels, please, and a happy ending is absolutely vital.

Two--good quality reading. Again, preferably scifi or adventure. I don't mind niche like steampunk or gothic if it's decent, but I really don't want to read stories where it's all about someone's feelings or romance. Love is fine if it's in the novel, but I can't have it be the main focus. The evil bastard in the towel torturing peasants and the swashbuckling heroes are more interesting to me.

A major plus would be an evil dude turned good, the anti-hero who is too honorable to fit in with the rest of the villains, etc.

Again, happy endings are mandatory. Dying nobly is *not* a happy ending. I have no real squicks or triggers besides an insane hatred of deathfics and Sues.

Finally...I know there are fanfics that have been put to e-reader format and can be downloaded. I've never tried this. I would be willing to learn. Major fandoms are Thorki, Harry/Draco, Ninja Turtles, Superboy/Robin, but it doesn't have to be slash necessarily.

And I *am* an English teacher and kind of a writer, so I suppose if you have any really classy, literary books, I guess I shouldn't turn my nose up at it. Mostly.

Only one caveat with all this. Please, it would help dearly if they were available on kindle. I find that I require long hot baths with skin care treatments to relieve some symptoms I'd rather not go into, and I've rediscovered pleasure reading to pass the time. I usually spend an hour or so. I keep the kindle in a clear plastic bag to avoid dreadful accidents, and it's hard to turn pages in the bag.

I'm gonna stop reading TheMarySue blog. It's got some decent stuff on it still, the occasional article and insight, but it's cluttered with a lot of junk now--geek marriage proposals, little kids being cute, celebrity gossip and hype on flicks or pop culture that reek of marketing. I don't need to see a crap Tardis cake, a lame video of yet another pwecious widdle child doing something, and omg a new promo for Game of Thrones or Hunger Games or Dr. Who. It's turned into a cheap gossip and fluff rag.

I went on and ended up scrolling over nearly everything posted in the last two or three days. It really does feel like marketing, and dammit, I don't need every little detail released about Dr. Who or Pepper Potts in Iron Man. There's having focus and then there's being myopic. And finally...I don't want to know spoilers about Iron Man. Any. I only looked at the first trailer, and I didn't intend to get any more information than that. And instead TheMarySue has been sticking any details on its site, with spoilers not only coming before the cut but in fucking pictures, too.

So to hell with it. I'm not going back. If anything substantive actually gets posted on that site, I'm sure one of the tumblrs I'm following will post it. As for now, I've already deleted it from my firefox memory.

Parent/teacher conference night. I have to stay here in my classroom until 6 pm.

It suuuuuuuuucks.

But I'm taking the day tomorrow to make up for it. ^_^

But until then, I must sit here. And grade. And put up directions for the brats for tomorrow. And then lesson plan for next week. And then continue to grade.

Here's hoping that the night goes pleasantly, smoothly and quickly. Although we already had a false alarm fire bell go off. I think the kids have discovered that one of the fire alarm pulls is in the stairwell that none of the cameras can see. Once all of them figure that out, then we have regular interruptions to the year.

I'm still waiting to see what senior prank is, and when senior ditch day will be. Senior ditch day is wonderful. Only a handful of kids show up, the ones that can't afford another absence, and I'm nice so I don't assign anything major. No tests or quizzes. Kids should be able to enjoy a little busting of the rules.

I'm getting the Vampire Chronicles archive page done. I'm probably a little over 50%. And oh, how humbling to read these old stories. Back from the 1998-2002 era, filled with melodrama (oh God, the melodrama), shallow characterization, trite cliches, rushed pacing... And so many! I still have so many to put up! How come cruddy stuff is so easy to produce?!

And yet, I can see a lot of the same ideas I like playing around with. Heck, a little bit of the phrasing is very familiar and I can see the structure of my writing slowly taking form. At the same time...well, in all honesty I'm not putting up a couple stories because the author inserts (blessedly only in comic script form) are just too bad to merit posting. But I know it can't be all that bad when I look at a story, start reading...and keep reading.

It's over 700 Marvel titles for free, and not crap like old copies of Power Pack. There's lots of new stuff in the pile. Go go go!

Again, major thanks to [profile] arkarian_kamui for sending me copies of the Willing Slave arc. Saved me loads of time uploading! I'm getting the archive set up, slowly but surely. The GW, DBZ, TMNT, Misc. and HP pages are all mostly done. I have the fanfiction and fanart nested to save menu room. I would like to get artist names on the fanart, although that is gonna take awhile along with checking some old files. I'm gonna take a bit getting all the rest of the fanart up. Hm, I think getting links to translations would be a good idea, too. I found a fic I had lost for awhile, an old Resident Evil one that took some scrolling through in my LJ for.

And I need to write fanfic. Oy.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Infestation (part 1 of 2) came out over a year ago, but I just read it. It's free on Comixology so if you wanna give it a shot, see if you like it enough to shell out for part 2. I highly recommend it!

It's a take-off on Lovecraftian horrors, with specific references to Shub Niggurath, Dunwich and even a side reference to Innsmouth, but Donatello gives it his own spin and there's a bit of an ominous ending if you know your Cthulhu Mythos.

Also, there's tentacle rape. Tentacle/Leo. Yay.

And finally some icons.

subject: Went to bed at 5:30 pm, woke up at 2 am, figured I might as well try it.

Okay, I gave the new TMNT toon a shot. And it's surprisingly good. It's still too close to the old Archie kiddy'ness for my comfort but the fights are pretty good, and the comedy is golden. Seriously, this show is very well written. The guys have very strong personalities, and I do like that Leo's not the best fighter, but he's the best ninja. And man, I am so happy to see Raph and Leo as antagonistic friends. The writers have struck a very satisfying chord with them both.

Likewise with Michelangelo and Donatello, I think. Mikey can be aggravating, but he is consistently funny. And Donatello, although a little creepy in terms of April, is still fun and enjoyable to watch.

I'm still getting used to hearing "Raph" as Donatello, however.

Also, I am so in love with Space Heroes. The captain who disintegrates his enemies and then sends little buggers out an airlock. So damn awesome. I would watch this in real life--it's also what consistently keeps me ROFLing. It goes so damn dark that it satisfies me and wow, I could do a lot with that as one of Leo's main influences.

To my surprise, I like this Splinter. He's not annoyingly limiting as some of the other Splinters I've seen, and his sarcasm is good. He's less like a babysitter and more like a father who's raised his sons to be violent killers and encourages that in them.

So I've been mainlining the show on watchcartoonsonline.com, and I look forward to finishing the series so far soon.
