Ultra-processed food.

“Stark new research … exposes a ‘tidal wave of harm’ being caused directly by UPF. …
Almost every food that comes with a health claim on the packet is UPF.”

theguardian.com/science/2023/a

Maybe good food doesn’t have to be labelled “Healthy!!”
LIke people introducing themselves, “I’m not a liar.’

Oh Aspirin, precious friend
Your benefits never end
To prevent a second risk
A daily tablet, you must
To ward off a future heart attack or stroke

I had a back in Jan 2019 which, at this point, leaves me with some weakness and dis-coordination in my right side, including my hand. About two years later I'd try getting into . Since then, it's been an interesting journey of trying to figure out a good controller as I have trouble using just my thumb for pressing the face buttons on a standard pad. I've found a good control scheme to play with since then but holy shit are pads near universally awful quality.
