    well ya probably can't, i mean it's not like they're paying you to see if you carry on a normal life, just confined to a bed. they're there to see how fvcked up your body gets, how much muscle atrophy and other sh1tty things you go through and just what you'll come out like after 3 months. you might as well be tortured.

    but you're right, i would like to see what exactly happens, so go ahead and sign up for it
