A compound crime: Israeli army hits Gaza family, uses them as human shields, and runs over their mother

This is why I don't "condemn Hamas". Israel has been doing this kind of thing to them for decades, I would violently resist people who kill my family too

Passover is a weird thing. The "angel of death" slaughtered Egyptian children over night and for some reason needed marks to be placed over the doors of Jewish houses.
I have my doubts about whether it was really a supernatural event

It's not ancient but blackcurrant syrup aka ribena was originally developed for this purpose when other fruit supplies were running low in Britain during the war

I just got banned from r/askbrits for responding to someone saying they didn't see why Israel or Palestine was relevant to British politics, and I commented that Britain helped create Israel. I was instantly banned

Musk Lied to Kill High Speed Rail
I've been on the high speed line from Shanghai, it's fantastic. Covered 700km in around 2 hours with beautiful views of the landscape. The ride was comfortable and relaxing.
I've also been on the Shanghai Maglev, which I believe at the time and maybe still is the fastest passenger train in the world. It was pretty amazing flying over the motorway. It goes between Pudong airport and Shanghai city centre in about 10 minutes. I felt slightly nauseous during the acceleration.

Can you see magic eye pictures?
I didn't think I could but interestingly enough discovered a technique that works earlier today. Basically get really close whilst staring at a point then gradually move away. It actually is an amazing effect

YSK: Using dairy milk after being tear gassed or pepper sprayed doesn't provide more relief and has slightly increased infection risk. Use water or saline instead

Yeah, if the irritant is capsaicin I would think that milk would wash it off sensitive tissue more effectively than water as capsaicin is more lipid soluble than water soluble. I think if you eat a spicy chili, to stop the pain you need to wash the irritant off your tongue and milk does this more effectively than water.
