True, the hospital could be doing the bare minimum to keep him alive. But I get what the person you're relying to is saying. Surely if you're a capitalist ghoul who runs both a health insurance company and a hospital, you would want as little overlap between customers as possible in order to maximize profits, right? The people paying you insurance premiums would ideally never get sick and require the insurance to pay out, and the hospital would ideally be full of people with other insurance plans.

+1 to this for my personal anecdotal experience as a cis man. If I'm wearing a suit or something, I might refer to something that is in my breast pocket, or if I was ever to wear armor for some cool reason, I might wear a breast plate, but I can't think of any other situation where I would ever refer to that upper torso part of myself as a breast. But like everyone else is saying, you do you, dude.
And yet my friend, you bow to no one.
Some people say about Trump, "I like him because he's brave enough to say what we're all thinking". I say that about this translator.
Oh man, I gotta go listen to some Vulfpeck.
Woof woof. Faster than fear!
I think whether I was a fruit or not, I wouldn't want to operate with the assumption that I'm going to be eaten, so scientific categories all the way. As a human, I like to think of myself as a mammal/ape/homo sapien/whatever instead of wondering which parts of me are white meat vs dark meat.
Granted, you'd have to find some way to harness together quite a few boobies in order for them to be able to pull anything much, since they're not huge birds. But if you get enough of them, maybe you could fly.
Whenever I want to say something is cool, I have to complete the whole phase of "cool, alright. C-c-cool, alright, kick it." But if I'm being sarcastic about the thing being cool, I will say the first part but then continue on to say "ki-ki-kicks my mom".
Yeah, I saw one yesterday for the first time during football because I typically avoid all the classic sources of commercials, and it was just two dude bros who looked like they were making a podcast sitting around saying "Yo, I don't want all my tax money being used to give prisoners sex change operations". And I thought, "who on earth would this possible convince to vote for Trump who wasn't already absolutely going to?"
So if and when we make that happen, and we have a society free of that stuff, do we think everything will always be perfect and free of conflict and no one will break the (hopefully much improved) laws? That seems unlikely, so we'll need some kind of way of keeping the order, right? Will it not be the responsibility of a specific job? Will there be people with that job but we won't call them any of the names we currently have for that general job category?
I think the insurance company part was invented by this comic but I didn't know a ton about Batman. I did see online that Wayne Medical is a subsidiary of Wayne Enterprises and operates many of the hospitals in Gotham.
