Questions, corrections and disagreements are all welcome, corrections most of all. TorpidLife covers health topics where being wrong has consequences, so if you spot an error, a stale citation, or a claim that outruns its evidence, it gets fixed and the change gets noted.

Send a message

If this is a correction, please point at the specific claim and, if you have one, the source that contradicts it.

What gets a reply

  • Corrections. Name the claim, and the source that contradicts it if you have one. These jump the queue.
  • Questions about something published here. A gap in an article is useful to know about.
  • Topic suggestions. The specific, unglamorous problems beat broad subject areas.

What does not

  • Personal medical questions. Not rudeness: answering would be irresponsible. Please see a qualified professional, and read the medical disclaimer.
  • Guest posts and link insertions. The site publishes no outside contributions and sells no links.
  • Sponsored content. Commercial relationships, if they ever exist, get disclosed and never buy coverage.

If you make something in this space

Desk, ergonomics, sleep and focus makers are welcome to get in touch. Two things to know first: sending a product creates no obligation to cover it and no obligation to be positive, and anything received is disclosed as such in the piece. If those terms do not work for you, we are not a fit.

TorpidLife is run alongside other work by the same editorial operation that writes the articles. Corrections are looked at quickly; everything else may take a while, and some messages will not get an individual reply. That is not a judgement on the message.
