>Far more dangerous riding a bicycle to school than racing at 200+mph on closed course racetracks.

I understand that the safety gear helps in MotoGP but you might be overestimating how dangerous cycling is while downplaying risks of going over 200mph on a motorcycle.

>Countless crashes, but injuries have been rare.

To me this sounds that it's just a matter of time before there is a serious injury.

>Usually the bouncers walk the line and already tell people when they definitely will not get in.

Not true. I have never seen or heard anything like this to happen at the Berghain queue.

As a regular Berlin visitor I have never heard of a club that "forbids alcohol" let alone encourage illicit drug usage. It's actually quite the opposite – the clubs tend to actively discourage drug use (meaning searching for them at the door and kicking out everyone who is caught using).

It seems that the National Endowment for Democracy support for Bellingcat ended in 2021: https://www.bellingcat.com/app/uploads/2023/06/Bellingcat-An...

>Last year marked the final year of project funding from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) that provided funding for Russian-language workshops at no cost to journalists and human rights researchers based in Russia, Ukraine, Central Asia and the Caucasus.

Not a surprise you did not want to answer the rest of the questions.

By "he took" you probably mean that Bellingcat has received support from National Endowment For Democracy?

Are you saying that this support has somehow affected the investigations conducted by Bellingcat? How that is visible exactly?

Also, I don't know too much about National Endowment For Democracy so could you provide some reading about how it's affiliated with intelligence agencies?

>Higgins, even though he took that bait of think tank jobs/intelligence money

What do you mean by this exactly? Do you have any other sources than Elon Musk tweets that Eliot Higgins has taken "intelligence money"?

>"according to UK intelligence"

This is a misleading "quote".

UK intelligence is not mentioned in the article at all (https://archive.is/xG0M7)

Avoiding and suppressing uncomfortable emotions and feelings instead of fully accepting and acting on them. This is of course a huge topic in itself and easier said than done but I'm confident that investment on this area almost always worth it. You are fortunate if you got this already in childhood!

Another thing would be flossing with dental brushes. Gum infections can ruin your health in many ways.
