I like the way mine looks, but I’ve I’ve noticed a good bit of wear over the last year of minor usage. I bought through the website as well.

Depending on where you are I have a concept 2 to sell you. It’s really good, I just don’t use it.

Branding wise, “made in China” will need 50 years of solid performance to lose their current reputation.
I wouldn’t say better, the machines are exactly the same.

They have the capability, the mindset of the manufacturer sending to China in the first place gives you a clue of their motives and why they will never spend the additional effort and cost.

Is there any data on hyaluronic acid shots?

So there is another actual BIFL mattress that is comfortable and long lived. I think they have mattresses that are 50-75 years old that are still serviced.
The brand is Hästens
The slight problem is that they’re very expensive to being prohibitive. Check them out if money isn’t an issue.

I had a consistent high rate after a Covid shot. I kinda freaked, but apparently my fever caused my heart to pump faster to spread heat to of your extremities like a radiator.

Reply to comment by dr_mediocre in Return to Gotham: In Its Scariest Episodes, Batman: The Animated Series Went “Over the Edge” by PetyrDayne
Yeah that’s the one. I think it is, Harley Quinn has been pretty good at reincorporating prior stories and plots and generally making fun of them. It’s just the animated series isn’t really meant to be funny, it’s very serious. So they took a serious moment and made it funny because it would be very out of character to have such a dark moment in an otherwise colorful bright fever dream.

It had such potential the first like 3-4 episodes are super good at setting up the story, imo they fumbled the bag.

They did an homage to this in the Harley Quinn show, but it wasn’t as traumatizing.

The fact it’s illegal to go off the grid in some states, should be a political conversation of a lot more importance.
“If I’m supporting it with a local monopoly and often with tax dollars, do I have support it with my after tax dollars under penalty of the law?”

90 dollars to maintain a inefficient system when I have my own power? Fuck that I’ll just buy a generator and disconnect.

Obviously my original comment is dramatic, it has to be because most people have a small attention span and complex issues have to be compressed until they lose all nuance.
Working within the system doesn’t change the system when there are so many monied interests in the status quo, IMO.

It all exists on a spectrum.
Car dominated infrastructure means we are saddled with sprawl, spiraling debt obligations, traffic, and worse city services because cars are inherently inefficient compared to other forms of transportation.
Well designed cities encourage walking and mass transit. They can be used by everybody. It’s inexpensive, efficient and profitable.
Cars are expensive, and only a certain portion of society can really afford them. There is no alternative in many areas in the country. It creates pockets of poor who can’t afford a vehicle, or working poor who scrape by with no savings or safety net. The barrier to entry of a vehicle is thousands, but a bus or train ticket is a couple dollars.

If your point is that I’m wealthy enough to have electronic device so I can post on Reddit, yeah I do. It doesn’t really change the calculus of the situation as I’m just one guy. I’m talking about society.
Our society is geared towards fucking the poor, pretending most people have a chance or a choice keeps this stupid shit running.
