    I can’t wait to be able to tinker with my own prosthetics. My real ankles function but cause me a good deal of pain. Im looking forward to the point where prosthetics are cheap and effective enough that we can opt into them instead of some surgery that is less than likely to solve the problem.

    But Don’t Pay Much Attention To Our Neanderthal English, HaHa ❤ HaHa
    *NOTE:
    -> Spiritist is who professes Spiritism, the Gospel continuation
    It has began with the books by Allan Kardec and continued in the books by Francisco C. Xavier, the greatest and more important medium/prophet of spirits of the last centuries…
