You could throw in "elderly" as well for the trifecta. Hospitals are notorious for not approaching their concerns as urgent because there's this expectation that they're unwell and just going to be in and out of the hospital anyway.

Plus, if there's any confusion/dementia, they aren't the best at advocating for themselves.

Ok, I need to track down this show now. I loved it as a kid and haven't seen it since.

So, do I finally need to learn about GrapheneOS? What are other people doing?

I nearly crossposted this to the PCM community too, but I figured it's not a good fit because it's not actually political.

There really could be, if we approached it in media like we do Greek/Roman or Egyptian mythology.

And under that bridge? Water.

 

As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, here’s a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520

Wow, they must have merged together in my mind, because I thought there was only one movie, but I definitely saw both in theaters.
