Pedal power pays off: Mountain biking benefits outweigh risks, says study
New Curtin research into injuries sustained by trail users has found mountain biking is not the dangerous, injury-plagued sport reserved for thrill-seekers that it is often perceived to be and that the health benefits outweigh the risks.

strongly disagree
Are there no bike parks and jump lines in Australia?
It was rhetorical, bruh
Have you noticed how many people new to bikes explain mountainbiking like "since now bikes are so much better people are riding things they never could before"
propaganda works so alarmingly well

Abstract
As a long-established fermented beverage, beer is rich in many essential amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, and bioactive substances that are involved in the regulation of many human physiological functions. The polyphenols in the malt and hops of beer are also important active compounds that interact in both directions with the gut microbiome. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which polyphenols, fiber, and other beneficial components of beer are fermentatively broken down by the intestinal microbiome to initiate the mucosal immune barrier and thus participate in immune regulation. Beer degradation products have anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, antioxidant, and glucolipid metabolism-modulating potential. We have categorized and summarized reported data on changes in disease indicators and in vivo gut microbiota abundance following alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer consumption. The positive effects of bioactive substances in beer in cancer prevention, reduction of cardiovascular events, and modulation of metabolic syndrome make it one of the candidates for microecological modulators.

I have a friend with a genuine phobia of brain parasites. I love sending him stories like this.
I was once working in a mine shaft as a blaster and while digging out a sump I saw a giant red worm about an inch in diameter and about 4 feet long in the tailings and disappear down the hole faster than I could dig it up to see what it was. I've asked some of the best biologists and scientists about my encounter and they all were clueless. Even the school of mines had no clue what to think.
In SE Washington there is the "Giant Palouse Earthworm" but it's nowhere near an inch thick.
Sounds like the native worms we have here in NZ.
things are huge! They can get up to 1.5m in length.
