Congratulations @siegel@mastodon.social on 30 years of @bbedit@mastodon.social. What an accomplishment! My favorite Rhode Island product by far, even more so than coffee syrup. Great work, Rich and team. barebones.com
Could stubbing one’s toe badly generate enough immune response to reduce swelling in one’s knees? A friend off social media recovered 50-80% in 9 months from a knee injury yet went from 80-97% the day after they stubbed their toe. Forwarding to med followers welcome.
