“I want to say, in all seriousness, that a great deal of harm is being done in the modern world by belief in the virtuousness of work, and that the road to happiness and prosperity lies in an organised diminution of work.” - Bertrand Russell, In Praise of Idleness

Spectre of communism has led a lot of innocent soul as well. Very fitting.

Acupuncture is amazing. I live in South Korea where acupuncture is a very common practice and it downright works. I don't know well enough to say this but I seriously doubt that while there's no doubt it plays a big role in its effectiveness but it's definitely more than just placebo effect. It definitely does something.

There's a very famous case of frostbite so bad that the doctors insisted that the patient needed amputation(severance? Not sure how you say cutting off toes) but a traditional Korean doctor cured it only with acupuncture and some herbal medicine. The patient recently made an interview about it as well. I was able to find this related paper as well.

Still not sure if this can be achieved only with some form of placebo. Guess I am too familiar with the idea of acupuncture being real?

edit: was just curious. Thanks for the input!

I'd rather work than to be forced to post something on vacation.

I wish I had the same brainless high hope for something.

A communist nation that can really provide all that is as realistic as capitalistic utopia.
