I’m probably going to do a kickstarter for this product. With enough startup capital, I can get it into clinical trials of interest to insurance companies. i’ve heard more than one expert tell me that they love products like this if they prevent the condition in the first place, rather than deal with its many disorders and symptoms, which all get very expensive to treat.

POLL. If my ergonomic desk “adapter” product aleviated 75 to 100% of your back, neck, arm & wrist pain as you do computer work for many hours, would you balk at a $129 sticker price, IF the “system” required additonal components (that you may have already): an executive armchair, monitor arm, and footrest?

(I’ll post pics of these things as a reply to this poll)

@shoq @Snowshadow I’m big on prevention. I worked hard hat jobs that were very dangerous. The one place I got hurt the most, did the most damage, was working in an office with poor ergonomics.

Random media commentary: It doesn't count as an "exodus" when the people no longer counted as population are STILL IN CALIFORNIA (just interred). COVID-19 deaths, folks. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-05-14/california-exodus-left-a-gaping-population-hole

@portcitystudios @ai6yr This is part of the propaganda put out by the Russian Arm of the “Calexit” mission. They are trying to split up our greatest and wealthiest states to cripple our economy and create a secession and then civil war. Media goes along because they really don’t research any of this tripe that comes their way and it fills their spaces with ‘free’ work. All they have to do is slap a byline on it (real or AI) and sell rags.

Uh oh! Secret Hamas Files Show It Spied on Everyday Palestinians.

Hamas monitored political activity, online posts, and apparently even love lives. Palestinians were stuck between an Israeli blockade and a repressive security force.

@shoq It’s why Bibi paid them and kept them in power. They did his dirty work. Now, he just slaughters them and claims righteousness.

I still don’t get the lack of concern by people on Twitter for just what they are enabling by remaining there as cavalierly as they do. This menace gets darker every day. What does it take?

@shoq For some, it takes enough to prove that it’s toxic for all/most and unhealthy. For too many, it takes personal pain, inconvenience. I was there for the community feel. When I saw the damage being done to community, I left. Others can watch thousands be stabbed, dragged, but until it’s them… they stay. It’s not about ‘community’ for them. It’s a show, a stage they prance across. It is what they really are.

Oh… so you describe yourself as a "computer toucher"? How quaint… personally I command my computer from afar with my immense psychic abilities… turns over three playing cards on a table, they show a red diamond, a blue circle and a long error message concerning "dbus"

@mcc I once got a resumé for a job posting where the dolly said “I have copier knowledge”. We had 3 copiers in the office. I asked her to point to the copier she “knew”… She pointed to my typewriter. And she couldn’t type. I asked what her goal was if we hired her. “I don’t want your job,” she said. “I want to work for the president.” (There was no president). “As what?” I asked.
“As Vice President.” Hiring in a college town was bizarre.

@ai6yr “Approved” implies, it exists and go ahead and use it. Might be confusing.

There are few food combinations closer to the source and local than avocados mixed with honey produced from the blossoms of the exact same avocado trees...

@ai6yr I had a friend who had terrible allergies. living in a very floral, arboreal area, he suffered terribly. His wife started giving him a teaspoon of local honey every day, for a year. The allergies went away! After 10 years, he quit eating the honey (the apiary on their property lost its keeper to sudden death)… and within 6 months, the allergies were back.

All you have to do is watch Good Morning America, or any local TV to know why. There is no way any Democrat can counter that conservative onslaught that barrages most people with bullshit about Biden an his ROARING economy. And we all let them do it. We push back on nothing. Ever.

Seeking eggplant recipe ideas, as I have one limp eggplant in the fridge and 8 eggplants growing in hydroponics (which may produce a massive amount of eggplant).

So far my repertoire includes 2 dishes:

  1. Eggplant Parmesan (Italian)
  2. Eggplant in Garlic Sauce (Chinese)

(the family hates eggplant, except me, so we never eat it 🤔 )

Catawu,
@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@ai6yr BBQ/Grilled eggplant with sesame or honey mustard, Korean BBQ Eggplant, Eggplant casserole (you need canned artichoke hearts and bell peppers to go with it). Gads, I wish I was your neighbor! I’m the only one in this house that eats eggplant.

…If anyone wonders why the Biden whitehouse was so conflicted over how to respond to Gaza since last November, the Republican rhetoric in the last few days over even the threat of withholding weapons should be instructive.

these are late bc they required a child to send photos lol but my daughter was on an overnight ferry out in the Pacific ocean (near Haida Gwaii, BC) when the northern lights came.

The kids had one of the nights of their lives. I think these are great, so I'm putting them here

This was mom's decision I think

Melania seems a little angry. Gee, I wonder why 🤔

Those divorce papers are already typed up and ready to be sent to orange sh**bag, and I think they're coming overnight Fedex on November 6

It's likely Barron will be a ghoul, but wouldn't it be a gas if via his mother's bile he becomes a critic of and ?

@TCatInReality @thepoliticalcat @benroyce I look at the dynamics: His father is cruel, a bully, and remote. His mother is obsessed with herself, greedy, hateful. His father is only impressed with cruelty. He will try to please his father by becoming him only worse. Or, he will despise women because of her.

Catawu,
@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@benroyce @TCatInReality @thepoliticalcat When all the role models in your life aspire to cruelty as a sign of power, there’s not much hope you’ll become a benevolent, compassionate person or have the strength to pull away from the people in your life who have always had the most power over you. Without a solid role model, there is no path.

@TCatInReality @benroyce @thepoliticalcat That was a Jr. story. I thought you were talking about orange turd. Yeah, look what that did to that kid. He had several incidents of abusing his son, publicly. I think it gave him a chub.

@TCatInReality @benroyce @thepoliticalcat I don’t remember jr. Ever holding a job for 10 minutes so that’s a side story of another failed human as the result of failed but abusive parenting.

@thepoliticalcat @TCatInReality @benroyce Being psychologically/emotionally and physically terrorized by your father, daily, is a hardship of its own. Having a mother who was drunk and stoned before noon, didn’t help.
