Is America Really That Bad?
  • Of course you can't predict the future, and neither can motorists. What you can do is ride at a speed reasonably slow enough that you can react to people, and you can ride on the side of the pathway further from the doorways.

    And like I said already, a bike on person accident at slow speed is favorable to risking my own life or life-changing injury by riding in the street.

    If you're trying to change my mind, stop trying. For anyone reading this, petition your local government to build safe bike lanes with solid barriers and we won't have to have this argument.

  • so the only case these apply are when the cyclist isn't paying attention to their surroundings... which is the real reason it's dangerous, and when you eliminate that, I would rather have bikes passing next to people than cars passing next to bikes, because the latter is actually deadly when someone does make a mistake

  • Picnic
  • bitchy parents lead to bitchy kids. I've never liked this comic or its creator

    i know it's just a comic, but if your child is actually whining about one of the most beautiful creatures on our planet, asking you to kill it for no reason, while sipping on soda, you have failed as a parent

  • Board votes to change Concord High School's mascot to be more inclusive
  • What that republican senator is doing is immature but military readiness isn't really that important considering our massive lead over every other country in the world, not to mention our extensive network of allies. Nobody is invading the USA.

    Military spending needs to be cut by at least 25% and then maybe we'd have some money to spend on actually relevant concerns

    But yes, it shows the partisan and regressive attitudes of the current GOP. It's sad to see that the OC seems to care about making progress on important issues like public welfare only to get brainwashed into thinking it's the left's fault for being inefficient. There is some truth to that but the reason our advocates of social progress can't get anything done is specifically because of the GOP's zero-sum stonewalling.

  • Is America Really That Bad?
  • Baseless statement, elaborate

    It's not more dangerous for pedestrians because I am aware and respectful of them.

    So tell me exactly how it's more dangerous for me to be on a further-removed pathway, protected by a curb and other objects like light posts.

  • "Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?
  • Honestly a music platform is one of the only places I would actually welcome targeted ads. Where it can analyze my taste and suggest new music accordingly. But instead they just promote the highest bidder which is always lame pop music.

  • rule
  • Yeah the statement suggests as if elder people don't currently live in the same world as us today, while some of them may be out of touch, they have the same ability to understand the current climate as young people do. Some are stuck in the past but that's for too broad of a generalization

  • Twitter/X removing the block feature
  • He hated twitter for how effective it was in spreading awareness on progressive issues. Him and all the other billionaires want that platform split up, and it only costs him $44b, a fraction of his net worth.
