What a fascinating quirk. Do you ever get ear worms? Are you just generally indifferent or do you dislike music?

Interesting. I like a pretty niche style of music and I feel like when they make suggestions after the end of playlists were regularly good enough to get added to the seeding playlists.

I was using tidal for about a year but I just got really frustrated when my account got lost/interrupted when I updated my phone. I may go back for music discovery and playlists. However right now (and I plan for at least a few more months) I’m going to spend the money on band camp.

I highly doubt it actually costs anywhere near $10k to make such a bed.

What I’m saying is that adaptive furniture is likely a registered class II medical device which goes through FDA approval. So the bed isn’t 10K, but (a portion) the FDA registration is. The consequences of failing to register something that qualifies as medical devices are 1) fines 2) payments to anyone harmed and/or 3) time in federal prison.

Sure you could easily “disrupt” the market, but the market could easily disrupt the rest of your life.

restraints/locks/alarms for things that a cognitively impaired person might need, such as if they get up in the middle of the night

Restraints are 100% a medical device and I would highly doubt you would either be allowed to purchase or be reimbursed for one that’s not approved.

Edited to add: https://www.registrarcorp.com/blog/medical-devices/medical-device-registration/fda-class-ii-medical-devices/ A quick explainer (marketing from a business that helps companies register devices) since the FDA website is … not super clear nor helpful.

When my wife was in university and had weird down times she would do Amazon MTurk. It was pre-pandemic, so I don’t know how things are now, but I think she was regularly getting $200-400 a month (covered her car payment).

(In the US) If you make a medical device paid for by Medicaid, you have to have FDA approval. Which honestly, now may be the time to try and get it?

I also vaguely remember this.

I have often said that for me successful dating is not about getting to date lots of people, but about quickly filtering out the people who don’t work for me and filtering the people who do.

For OP, a lot of pan/bi sexual people already reject strict gender roles, and may be more open to a relationship like you’re seeking.

If it helps, the possessive versions of other pronouns don’t have apostrophes (hers, his, theirs, yours), so it makes since that the possessive of it also doesn’t.

I used to base my social life around fun cheap’s suggestions.

I’m sure that the number of times I’ve decided “nah I don’t need to see that” after being told an ad blocker violated YouTube’s terms of service has absolutely nothing to do with it either.
