I've previously posted about the Superhumans Centre in Ukraine. This article focuses on the co-founder and CEO Olga Rudnieva.
Rewatched #TheSubstance, still hyped.
If anyone in #Ōtautahi #Christchurch wants to do a group Halloween costume of the various stages of Elizabeth and Sue, I call dibs on Hag-Elisabeth.
I would bags the final form, but I don't have time or funds for that level of #prosthetics
Great article looking at #packers as #prosthetics, the potential #ableism of fancy prosthetic design, and the possibilities packers open up for #trans #bodies.

As a child, I remember my great uncle Albert used to visit often. An eccentric man, he had lost a leg, and had a false arm made if polished mahogany. He came to our house so regularly, before long he was like part of the furniture.
So I've been trying to wear my #prostheticarm more consistently because my left arm is weak and needs the added strain, but I cannot stop hitting this extra length on absolutely everything. How do you people with two hands cope with this BS?
Children injured by Russia’s war learn to live with #prosthetics
11-year-old Oleksandr #Reshetniak from Kharkiv Oblast still vividly remembers holding the stump of his torn-off leg, trying to stop the bleeding
