She needs to lose weight. Then her problems will go away as men find her attractive.

Headline is a bit misleading. It may be the world’s first implant to treat depression but there are other brain implants. My family member got one a few months ago to treat resistant Parkinson’s Disease. It seems to be working.

But can it cause a person to be more obedient?

No last name, please. Just the first name for identification.

Most of all, no face ID...

Oh, wait...

I name these “Happy Chips”.

Hopefully not the precursor to “Beastmark chips”.

Hopefully the lessening of depression will trigger her to healthier eating habits.

She has pretty eyes.

Wearing a mask outside leads to depression. Depression leads to the anger. Anger leads to the dark side.
