Neoliberal regimes of biocapital produce the body as never healthy enough, and thus always in a debilitated state in relation to what one’s bodily capacity is ­ imagined to be. As such, the democ­ratization of disability as an inevitable state that ­will interpellate every­one, discussed earlier, is itself a repetition of this neoliberal framework, which produces profit from precisely this logic. Aging itself is seen as debilitation, as some populations live longer but also live with more chronic illness. Regenerative medicine produces the experience of “double biological time”: as the body ages, the (unrealistic) possibility of restoring its vari­ous parts to at least an “earlier” state proliferates, and a certain promised return to capacity accompanies the experience of aging through debility. Being “better than well” emerges as the alibi for the translation of sensation and affect into symptom and thus the rationale for all types of medical intervention, manufacturing the "continual enlargement of the domain of the therapeutic."

I've recently spent 700$ on emergencies and it has strongly depleted my bank account (it is now so severely overdrafted that I have NOTHING ). And if I want to somehow survive this month and the first half of July, I'll need all 700$ by the end of the next three days

Fuck being nice, be the bitch you were born to be
