It was on my thumb... But that is quite the visual.

Not a single hospital I went to in that country had hand soap in the bathrooms, to give you an idea about the level of hygiene. But going for my yearly sinus infection was a breeze and I got antibiotics. Not a zpack but it cleared up the infection. And no appointments necessary. Breeze in and breeze out an hour later with what you need. And dirt dirt cheap, and on my visa I didn't pay into the national health care system, so my cost was 100% out of pocket.

Wart fertilizer perhaps

Eh, there's truth and lies on both sides. Coming from someone that lived in china for 4 years and was able to engage with Chinese primary news sources. But basic healthcare in china is faster and cheaper, but then again I went to get a wart removed and they prescribed me acorn paste that accelerated the growth of the wart. So win some lose some.

Yeah that's what I'm not understanding. He voluntarily joined the foreign legion. If he was captured then tortured or executed that's one thing. Tragic, but he knew the risks.

Or Major Marina Raskova, who formed the 588th night bomber regiment, the "Night Witches".

He's closer to you in class and status than Brian Thompson ever was. How fine a comb do you want to use to divide us? Where's the line?

I managed to convince my brother in law by using the wrongful death case of Kanokporn Tangsuan as an example. Framed it as his moral responsibility to never sign up for any digital media ever again since he has a family. I pointed him to a few resources to sail the high seas and he's got his high seas pc hooked up to his TV and cancelled all his subscriptions. I'm so proud.
