Funnily enough in Canada we have mars bars instead of the US milky way and 3 musketeers instead of the international milky way. Mars doesn't sell anything called a milky way here

There's the peritoneum which lines the abdominal cavity.

It's got a bunch of blood vessels to exchange chemicals so it's common to do kidney dialysis right into the abdominal cavity instead of the blood directly. Unlike hemodialysis, the machines can be taken home and operated by the patient.

And in vaginoplasties when they don't have enough tissue to do just a penile inversion, they can now pull through the peritoneum to help construct the vaginal canal instead of doing a colon graft.

What planet do you live on where people don't care about healthcare funding and policy?

I can tell the jellies are on the right and that they're in the genus Aurelia. Seems like a skill issue

I do agree that red scare rhetoric is increasing but buy in large it's directed at China and Xi. Anti-communist tropes do show up in popular discourse on Russia but in my experience it's less so in discussions on influence campaigns but in talk of Russia's territorial ambitions (understandable considering the place of Soviet symbolism in Russian nationalism and war propaganda).

Russians are not ethnically communist
