'fraid this test is a failure, mate. The text somehow got scrambled into complete gobbledygook. 😮‍💨

That is kind of true though, but months rather than weeks.

The thing is, if a guy has a disassembled rifle on the table in front of him and you have a ready gun trained on him, he is minutes away from having a functional rifle but he will always remain so.

It seems a little arbitrary that they can deny rights to a voting tax-paying 27 year old that they give to a 28 year old.

Can they ban Capricorns from riding motorcycles? It's actually for their own good, those things are dangerous!

Though not comparable in the past century or two, the English did deny many rights to the Welsh, Scots, and Irish since the middle ages until political reforms in the latter 20th C and even ongoing till this day.

It was illegal to speak Welsh in law courts from 1535 to 1942, and the court did not have to provide documents in Welsh until 1967.

English arseholery knows no bounds.

I recently went vegetarian again, but I'd really like a thick juicy steak.

A reality with perfect vat-grown meat?

I'm not much of a chef, but here goes...

Stir the barley into some yogurt to make a pseudo-granola.

Slice the pepper into strips and eat it as a snack.

That sounds pretty good to me!

My highschool physics teacher said the Nazis recorded X-ray video of Holocaust victims knees as they walked. Because MRI machines and other medical imagers aren't large enough to walk around in, the films are still one of the best sources of how the bones actually move naturally under load in situ surrounded by the connective tissue.

The radiation dose required to expose regular film at 24 frames a second killed the subjects.

I really hope they don't ever make movies like that again.

In 2021 my friend's roommate said you couldn't make a movie like Borat these days. I immediately pointed out they made a Borat movie the year before.

I didn't point this out, but he claimed to be 6'2" while being a few inches shorter than me, and I'm 5'11".
