So here’s the thing with today’s prosthetics: they kinda suck. For example this 2022 study reports that 44% of amputees rejected their prosthetic:

Most responders complained about the comfort (60.87%, n = 14) as well as the weight of the device (52.17%, n = 12).

What apparently goes a long way is accepting the missing limb and living with it. And I guess religion does help with that.

The dangerous fruit tastes sweetest, doesn’t it?

Stunning

Turns out the place where the shock absorber goes is also the place the „shock distributor“ works best from 😈

Huh, I don’t get that argument. To me, it seems that citizens paying journalists is desirable. I’m genuinely curious, who else should pay them in your view?

Democracy isn’t possible without an independent press.

Epstein was persecuted because the frigging Miami Herold reported about his abuses in 2018. He would have continued raping and trafficking kids for who knows how long without that. In a world where the media is owned by Epstein, that won’t happen.

Good reminder to pay for journalism.

The Guardian, Le Monde, El País, Tageszeitung and many others need subscribers to stay independent of the oligarchs.
