Caution on Twitter urged as Britons barred from US
In any way! Got it? Wait. Where are my facepalms?
Roadrunner
Just got to my head. The Sex Pistols one. Brain picked it up from somewhere.
If we lived in a sane world, here I would have not ranted but linked to a video of them doing Roadrunner. But, we don’t. And you would not get any special satisfaction from me posting an image of an apology for not having the vid in your country, you stupid person. So, instead, start singing.. is not’ard… Raodrunner roadrunner… going thousand miles an hour… with the radio oooon..
My friend’s claim seeks to apply a worn out law to a new reality. Books are different to other chattels (possessions) and the law should recognise this. Learned men like us, who have received a new heritage of knowledge through books, have an obligation to spread that knowledge, by copying and distributing those books far and wide. I haven’t used up Finnian’s book by copying it. He still has the original and that original is none the worse for my having copied it. Nor has it decreased in value because I made a ranscript of it. The knowledge in books should be available to anybody who wants to read them and has the skills or is worthy to do so; and it is wrong to hide such knowledge away or to attempt to extinguish the divine things that books contain. It is wrong to attempt to prevent me or anyone else from copying it or reading it or making multiple copies to disperse throughout the land. In conclusion I submit that it was permissible for me to copy the book because, although I benefited from the hard work involved in the transcription, I gained no worldly profit from the process, I acted for the good of society in general and neither Finnian nor his book were harmed.

The fondant in the centre of After Eights is made as a stiff paste of saccharose, water, and a small amount of the enzyme invertase. This fondant can readily be coated in dark chocolate. After manufacture, the enzyme gradually splits the saccharose into the much more soluble glucose and fructose, resulting in a more liquid consistency.[1] Maturing of the mint is said to take over three months.

Мое шибано дневниче
..дето те пиша от сто години. В една или друга форма.
Да можеше чошек да станеш та да ми помогнеш, ама не ставаш. Все си говорим монологово. Пък може и да е добре така.
Щото днес повечето от нещата които чух ми прозвучаха като обвинение. Не успях да стана идеалнят роднина, пък какво остава за идеалната дъщеря… Освен да бъда идеално зле, не виждам какво.
Трудно нещо е това живота. Колкото повече го мислиш, все по-трудно става.
Не го мисли дълго, че ей отишло е зад ъгъла.
[…] die politischen Parteien in der Bundesrepublik immer weniger mit Gesellschaftsgestaltung oder Ideologien zu tun haben. Sie sind ein Wirtschaftszweig geworden, eine gewinnorientierte Dienstleistung, die einen Service anbietet: die Umwandlung von Partikularinteressen in Gesetze.

Do you..
.. know that feeling when you don’t want to wake up because you don’t want to start thinking about everything again?
