I wasn't talking about mine. Sounds like it's most likely UM that is discounting it, because it's my SOs poverty line patients who have benefited the most from access. Maybe Henry Ford is as well

I mean the irony being that the blood stuff is all stolen from Europeans. Lemme know how Orban is doing. Or Le Pen. Or Meloni. Or AfD. Or Spains attempts to deal with secession. Or northern Ireland.

Every time someone talks about "generational trauma" now, it's so ahistorical to be self owning stupid. Yes, things can and do suck. But literally this is the best time to be alive, ever.

I think we should get together a small hive of city builders after it comes out and play "pass the save game" to see what monster we create
