Still shows as donations disabled to me. No doubt that $400k will be sorely needed despite the boys getting the drugs covered.

Go fund me is paused as they got the insurers to change their minds (with pressure from Missouri lawmakers I believe). The kiddos will get the drug they need.

Or move the pedals to the touch screen. So convenient!

I’m high risk as I’m immunosuppressed. I’ve had 8 vaccines, shielded for well over a year and always wore a mask. I finally caught COVID last week. There’s not a doubt in my mind that I would have died already if I hadn’t been vaccinated. My oxygen saturation levels just keep dropping - 90% today. I’m going to have to go to hospital ☹️

It touches on it briefly, but refeeding syndrome is a killer and is very hard to treat even in hospital not in a war zone. Even if the war stopped tomorrow and food was abundant, there’s nowhere to treat patients who have been starving - more will die.

No, he voluntarily returned his membership to the academy and they banned him from attending for 10 years.

Advance free give aways in exchange for “honest” reviews. Still shady af.

My dumb TV is 15 years old. It’s a bit small for the space and there’s a W burned into it but you can only see it on static screens.

I would like a new one but it’s pretty low down on the list of things I need to buy with the 37p I manage to save each month.

Yeah I paid for alien blue pro or whatever it was called. Then they killed the app and gave me a year of Reddit premium (my memory is shit, idk the proper name). After a month or so I switched to Apollo, Reddit’s app was just so shit. I left when Apollo died and now only use dystopia (an app designed for blind users) for the infrequent times I visit Reddit. No adds. It’s almost read only. But it’s ideal for visiting niche subs that aren’t on lemmy without giving Reddit clicks/seeing ads.

I’m in the UK but I got a letter in the post asking me to join the IPSOS surveys done here. It’s just randomly selected households I think. I get emails every few weeks asking me to complete a questionnaire online. Most of the questions are politics based which I don’t have much interest in, but you get paid in points that you can turn into Amazon vouchers or whatever. It’s a nice bit of pocket money when you’re strapped for cash.

The UK for one. The US too judging the use of $ in other comments.

Not OP but I did. It was crazy good deal, like £1.50 a month when I signed it. It helped me lose 10kgs. I don’t use it anymore but I use the lessons it’s taught me about portion size etc. I’ve lost more weight since, without exercise and I take prednisolone. Well worth the money for me.

I wish I could watch sports matches on demand, not just live. And I wish ad-free podcasts were available to pirate. It’s an unrealistic dream.

Another sign of autism is info dumping.

How many over 100 year old swimmers are competing in this thing?!

This is pretty similar, right down to the location. I thought it was more likely to be blisters from golf or something it is awfully like secondary syphillis.

20+ years ago I had to read Ian McEwan’s Enduring Love for English A level and swore off hot air balloons forever more. Great book for anyone not wishing to take a balloon trip though.

Boo. A taped off hole in the plane with a random window affixed is much funnier than just what’s under the interior “walls”.

I love the photo in the thumbnail. “Yup, that should do it. She’s good to go!”

Thank you for asking so I didn’t look like an idiot too! Wait…
