Software engineers from big tech firms like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta are paying at least $75,000 to get 3 inches taller, a leg-lengthening surgeon says

The surgeon breaks the patients' thigh bones and inserts nails that are extended with a magnetic remote control every day for three months, GQ said.

Sweet man-made horrors beyond my comprehension.

    IDK that making mental health a matter of strict personal responsibility makes any more sense than that of physical health. Obviously we live under Neoliberal Capitalism, and as such our options for addressing any of these problems rationally, at an organized social level are functionally nil. So one needs to do what one can to care for oneself; but I don't think that the solutions that we are required to pursue as a result of the limitations of our present social formations are ones that are actually going to really fix anything, tbh.
