CCHR International (check out the wiki page) is a well-known Scientology organisation founded in 1969. They use other innocent-sounding names to disguise their true intent to get people into the Scientology pipeline.

This is Scientology outreach. They always try to get people to buy "Dianetics" by first convincing the general public that psychiatry is the greatest evil in the world. Any slight misdiagnosis by a psychiatrist is proof that everything they do is a scam. People stop taking meds and buy their books.

There was a big jump in price with the invasion of Ukraine (even though we mostly grow our own wheat - the international price went up). But since wheat delivery from Ukraine stabilised there was no pressure for bread producers to decrease the price again. They seem to have "implicitly colluded".

Yep, there were also good (not perfect) adaptations of Hogfather, and Colour of Magic. But Going Postal was definitely my favourite of these

Yes, congress passed the "Invasion of the Hague Act". It's a real law. Unlike any other unprovoked military action, invading the Hague is the only military action a president is allowed to initiate without first declaring war and getting congressional approval (the way Bush did in October 2002).

That was a fun episode 🙂
But, about the humans having eggs thing; did you consider that the egg must have everything needed to grow a foetus into a baby? So that implies that the strange middle-of-the-night cravings for pickled cucumbers with whipped cream would be *every month*?

"Annoying and woke" Do you know your character dude?
That's why he's my favourite. He's sarcastic / unserious (annoying)
and stands-up for all marginalised people (woke).

Do you own shares? I mean at this point....
I used to own shares in Nando's in the early 2000s until they delisted and went privately owned.

Can the bishops, queens, and rooks traverse the gap (nobody can *land* on those squares) or not (like the edge of the board)? Makes quite a difference.
