Rape has become endemic in South Africa, so a medical technician named Sonette Ehlers developed a product that immediately gathered national attention there. Ehlers had never forgotten a rape victim telling her forlornly, “If only I had teeth down there.”
Some time afterward, a man came into the hospital where Ehlers works in excruciating pain because his penis was stuck in his pants zipper.
Ehlers merged those images and came up with a product she called Rapex. It resembles a tube, with barbs inside. The woman inserts it like a tampon, with an applicator, and any man who tries to rape the woman impales himself on the barbs and must go to an emergency room to have the Rapex removed.
When critics complained that it was a medieval punishment, Ehlers replied tersely, “A medieval device for a medieval deed.”

Pretty sure sometimes I forget that it's technically still winter in Montana because I basically live in shorts and a tank top when I'm at home
What’s the worst song you can think of? Not just “This is a bad song”, I’m talking an absolute cacophony. An affront to music itself. Hot melodical garbage. Someone hands you the aux cord and you get physically kicked out of the moving car.
I need more of that in my life.
