  • Physiotherapists use a form of acupuncture called dry needling, which can be used to trigger muscle twitching/relaxation (I’m not really super knowledgeable on it, I’ve just been to the physio, who use this in combination with massage, specific exercises etc)

    It’s certainly not placebo

    As for all the other claims made, I dunno.




  • Here’s the trick (maybe): “Don’t you know that WhatsApp is owned by Meta and collecting information on your chat metadata (who you chat to, when, your contacts, their contacts).”

    Tell them to get Signal. If there’s any country on this planet where convincing people to use Signal is easier, it must be Germany. GMaps streetview was banned there until recently, everyone uses fake names on Facebook, if they even made one in the first place.

    Surely they must be amenable to Signal

    Thank you. This is such a breath of fresh air. In all cases I prefer a simple answer, when organising an event with multiple people where I want to get ideas on numbers for planning.

    • Yes - great! See you there

    • No (with or without a reason) - fantastic! We’ve all got our own stuff going on or reasons why we don’t want to go!

    • Maybe, with a reason why, or when you would be able to give an answer - cool!

    • Maybe, with no further explanation - ugh. I’ll just assume you’re not coming and don’t care.

    Maybe with no explanation is the cowards way out. Especially when “no sorry, I’m busy!” is the standard white lie.

    “No because I don’t want to (don’t feel socially up to it)” is the hero’s response and I salute you 🫡
