One of my favorite things about a CEO of a health insurance company getting his fucking brain splattered against the pavement in broad day light followed by another healthcare company IMMEDIATELY not only retracting an unpopular policy on anesthesia and pretending that they didn't even really mean it in the first place is like...

Not only does this prove how well violence works (as if Shinto Abe didn't prove that already, as his assassination basically got his murderer's demands met) but also that everyone in America on both sides of the isle will be on your side.

Like you could functionally do this and just get away with it, apparently. And if America's ruling class puts its ENTIRE pussy into finding this guy and still can't do it that's gonna be really bad lmao bc it's basically just a billboard that's like "Unhappy with politics? Do a murder about it!!! You might get away with it!!!!"

It wouldn't even surprise me if they just found a guy to make a point to the American populace if they can't find the real guy.

In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.

"READ MY DNI" no. use your block button like an adult. i'm not scrolling through the many-paragraphs-long pinned posts of every blog i reblog something from. if you insist certain types of people aren't welcome in the notes of your posts then it's your responsibility to curate that. or choose a closed social media platform like facebook or instagram. or go and live in a barn away from humanity if you really don't like sharing the world with people who are different from you

Using a slime mold, an electrically conductive single-cell organism, researchers created a smartwatch that only works when the organism is healthy, which requires the user to give it food and care.

Devices such as cellphones, laptops, and smartwatches are constant companions for most people, spending days and nights in their pocket, on their wrist, or otherwise close at hand.

But when these technologies break down or a newer model hits stores, many people are quick to toss out or replace their device without a second thought. This disposability leads to rising levels of electronic waste—the fastest-growing category of waste, with 40 million tons generated each year.

Scientists wondered if they could change that fickle relationship by bringing devices to life—literally.

After creating the slime mold watch, they tested how the living device affected its wearer’s attitude toward technology.

Metaphor: ReFantazio Timeline Project

An attempt at compiling assorted memorandum info & in-game dialogue to create a somewhat comprehensive timeline for the game. Feel free to use/add to the source as needed!

Please note: this is a collaborative project!!

If adding or seeking to change info, please mark the source & refrain from deleting other’s work.

This document is also still very much a WIP; I will clean it up and make it more organized as time goes on. Right now, I'm focusing on compiling information!

If you have, like me, also been compiling way too much information from random voicelines and flavor text, this document is absolutely open for your use and organization as well.

Let me know if you have any issues accessing the document, and I hope this project is of use to you!

Since the holiday toy drive post is circulating again, I figured this would also be helpful! Food insecurity is such a massive problem in America, in general, and if you have the means to help feed others, I think you should take that opportunity. Here are some other tips:

1. If you’re planning on donating items from your own pantry, please check the expiration dates on the packaging. Think of your donations as gifts to bestow, not castoffs to be rid of. It’s awful to think of people feeling like they got scraps someone else just didn’t want. Everyone deserves dignity with their meals.

2. If you’d rather give money to a food bank, that’s also great since they buy food in bulk and know what items are most wanted/needed!

3. Not everyone has access to appliances like stoves or microwaves or hot plates so if you can donate items that don’t need to be heated up, that would also be greatly appreciated!
