A nice thing about getting a stem cell transplant is that after the procedure, you have to be revaccinated against everything. So I don't have to wonder whether I've been vaccinated against the measles.

"Are there other nice things about a stem cell transplant?"

Well.... there's the fact that it most likely saved you from death. That's a plus. Other than this, no. There's nothing else. It is a procedure that may kill you and which is replete with pain and misery.

I got a new computer! Argh!
Just arrived.
First tower in 20 years. Goodbye gaming laptops!
Totally new. No second hand components.
Assembled by professionals. With a 2 year warranty.
Case with wooden bits. No RGBs. Because I'm classy like that.
Great specs. Stupidly good. Too good for me? No! I deserve nice things!
Argh!

Something else I enjoyed: the local chocolate bars (Vintage Pantations, handmade in Umeå nordicchocolate.se & Svenska Kakaobolaget, from the South of Sweden svenskakakao.se) I returned with. We shall not talk about how much I paid for them, too scary and Halloween has already passed. 👀🥴🤫 But it's nice stuff.

Hippy Boomers of the 50’s and 60’s freaked out the Silent Generation so badly, they went into reactionary mode, launched the War on Drugs, and now we can’t have nice things.
