I’d wear that just for the lolz. Where can I get one?

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

My disorganised thoughts in no particular order:

In Australia, donation of blood products is not paid. I think you get a cup of tea and a few biscuits (“cookies”).

I don’t have a problem with that, and I’m very grateful to those anonymous people who volunteered their time and blood so that I could have blood during my stem cell transplants.

I also don’t have a problem with people in other countries who are paid for their blood products; I understand what it’s like to be in dire straits, and blood is a renewable resource. However, I feel that if a company is making money from selling blood, they should be paying a fair price to donors.

Ethically, I feel that any donation of blood (or organs) should be completely anonymous, altruistic, and uncompensated in order to remove any hint of obligation between donor and donee. The idea of being paid for donations makes me personally uncomfortable, even though I just said that I don’t mind other people being compensated.

I’d like to contribute and save lives and whatever, but I have incurable blood cancer (multiple myeloma) and they won’t allow me to donate.

The only way I could be a better player than you are right here in this situation would have to have the best team on your side to beat the team and be able and play for the best player on your side of this scenario and not just be able and not have a team to beat the best player of all times in this scenario and I don’t think you have the same problem with that scenario and you can have the best player at your position in this situation but you can’t be a bad team and I think that would make it a little easier to play against your side because I don’t know what to say.

Wait, what? Need a spoiler tag.

Okapi. They’re unusual and they look cool.

What a fascinating article! Thank you for sharing it!

How many emus are in Germany?

Gave up smoking 25 years ago. Diagnosed with incurable blood cancer 5 years ago. After two stem cell (bone marrow) transplants, three years of chemotherapy, and a year of immunotherapy, I’ve been told I’m in full remission — no evidence of disease — and I’m not expected to relapse.
