I'm not sure about where they decided to mount those guns

It was a real thing, early fighter plane guns were synced with the propeller so they’d not hit the blades somehow.

Going into 2020, I knew nothing about that poo poo, I naively figured it was no worse than any other type of the disease. Then that July, my mom was diagnosed with it and so ensued five soul destroying months finding out all about it, helplessly watching her waste away, going in and out of hospital (that they let me visit her at all with Covid going on was a blessing but also spoke volumes about how bad they thought her condition was), trying as best we could to make the most of what time we had left. Speaking to oncology staff, some felt it was pretty much was the worst of the lot and from what I did see during those last months, I can well believe it. And the survival rate seemingly hasn’t changed in my lifetime.

My heart goes out to George and his family. No one deserves that. No one. It’s the cruelest poo poo.
