The decision to exclude certain kink- and leather-inspired art pieces from public display has drawn allegations of censorship against the SOMA West Community Benefit District.
Dorian Katz, an artist of one of five pieces of art submitted to the SOMA West CBD, said she was told that her piece would be featured on a new trash receptacle at the southwest corner of 11th and Harrison streets, only to find out that it was not there. We were told the exact location of where each trash can was going to be, Katz, a queer, bisexual dyke who paints under the name Poppers the Pony, told the Bay Area Reporter. We were paid for our work, and in September people went out to see them and one-third of us went out to find our art was not up.
State takes Minnesotans tax refunds for debts owed to hospitals
Hospitals say state s help to collect medical debts is lifeline; some already struggling Minnesotans say it s added hardship. December 11, 2020 4:27pm
The discovery of seven tumors on her liver forced Jean Hehn to make some tough financial choices: Pay her medical bill or pay rent. Pay her medical bill or buy groceries. Pay her medical bill or put gas in her car.
But the state of Minnesota took that choice away from Hehn when it started seizing her state income tax refund to pay an overdue bill with Regions Hospital.
The first time it happened, Hehn said she was shocked and then angry that the state had the power to act as a debt collector for private health care companies. When she told close friends about her experience, some confessed privately that it had happened to them as well.

The Pima County medical community locked arms Friday and delivered one message: Stay home as much as possible, wear masks and avoid social gatherings because of substantial countywide spread of COVID-19.
The message was delivered in a letter signed by 26 healthcare and emergency services providers that included Kate Schneider, Chief Administrative Officer for Northwest Medical Center Sahuarita, and Rural Metro Fire Chief Karl Isselhard.
The letter said the healthcare system âis experiencing heavy stress and is near the breaking point. If our community does not take immediate action to slow or stop the spread of COVID-19 in Pima County, the results for the healthcare delivery system could be catastrophic.â
