Fascinating to see the accepted forms of voter ID. Eight forms of ID for the elderly, but no student card, no 16-25 railcard, no ISIC, no IYTC. It's almost like the Government want old people to vote more than young people, for some odd reason. https://t.co/gSf9m5nCFP

Discovered in an abandoned mine in New Mexico, a set of Levi jeans dating back to the 1880s were recently sold at an auction for $87,000. These jeans bear wax marks on the legs, a testament to the original owner's toil by candlelight. With a waist measuring 38 inches and a length of 32, denim historian Michael Harris stumbled upon them in the mine. These pants would have been worn during the gold rush period, and Harris vividly described their condition.
