Oh yeah, that definitely is weirder. It’s like outside of busy hours. And before tea/dinner.

Just as a counterpoint. I don’t know what americna nightlife is. But, in the UK, if there was a pizza/takeout place that inly opened after 12 until 5, it would be a great business idea. Chances are, there’ll be a fuck ton of drunk people using it.
Fun fact. There’s a dating app, can’t remember which one, where it would display a full sized ad, and if you even tried to swipe back, it would instantly load the playstore.
Sorry. Not swiping to go back. Swiping to close the app. I removed that insanely quick. Whilst still not ideal, Tinder has an ad system that shows like a users profile. But you can just swipe it away without any bullshit. Or if you like the look od it you can click or swipe on it. Take a guess which one has a significantly better user experience.
I’m not sure what brands you have in America. But, ome brand that I’ve heard recommended is Alpinestar. Expensive, but again, can’t say from experience. But they’re quite good from what I’ve heard.
I wear near enough full RST, I got a trousers/jacket textile suit for about, I think, 320 usd. It has padded elbows, shoulders, and a back plate. And padding at the knee caps. I also have RST boots that extend higher up the legs. And some summer gloves with padded knuckles and leather around the palm and mesh on top. But, my other gloves were chasing really bad sweating.
I don’t think the US and the UK use the same safety rating guide. But, as long as you’re getting from a reputable brand, and getting protection for the most important parts, you should be okay. So the most important being hands, back, elbows, shoulders, knees, and feet/ankles. Don’t use steel capped boots though. As one read those can cause more damage to the toes.
For a very rough price, I think you should aim for about 500 usd for the rest of the gear. Might seem excessive, but like I said, can be the difference between life and death.
Actually, some where i got confused was between textile and leather. But, whilst leather is a lot better as it won’t tear as easily. Good textile would be more than enough unless you’re going to really be breaking speed limits and going for track days.
here’s 2 videos from a youtuber, he knows more than I do.
Don’t worry too much about jumping straight for summer clothing and and cold clothing. Cold clothing will more than likely have thermals you can remove. And, with the exception of being stuck in traffic/at traffic lights, once you’re actually moving you should get a nice breeze. And something I love about my rst jacket. Its got titty zips. If its a warm day, open them up, and it allows a lovely breeze to engulf your top half.
I’m not sure on your mental health condition. But if there’s one thing I’ve learnt from getting my big bike licence. Its done wonders for me.
And a little tip for you. Get really good gear. Even if you don’t think you’ll come off or if youre only going lut for half an hour. Anything can happen. And good gear, so jacket, trousers, gloves, helmet and boots can be the major difference between a few broken bones and agonising death/amputated limbs.
Oh and filtering ear plugs. I got some the other week and they’ve been a live saver. I can still hear my music perfectly fine. But they protect your hearing from the constant sound of the engine and all the wind.
Be safe out there, brother.
Okay, yeah, I’m out of the loop with all the SEO stuff. Thinking about it, yeah jve had to do that a bit.
I didn’t realise. My bad.
What’d be the feasibility of making a search engine, that actually works, to search for only reddit? Without all the bullshit.
I do. But only when I absolutely need to. I kind of miss the uk motorbike dub. But, eh, that’s just life.
If I do need to use it. I go firefox with ghostery, and Ublock origin. But that’s only because, if I search for a problem, reddit usually has it. If it asks me to use the mobile app, then, I can always just tell Firefox to use the desktop site, and I haven’t had an issue with that yet.
Near enough 3000 hours on destiny 2 and g-mod in second with 992 hours. And third is advanced warfare multiplayer woth 699
Can’t give advice for getting them out. But please, for the love of God, before you even attempt to take them out. Get spares. If you’re not sure which ones exactly. Try to get ones that are mixed but look similar.
If you do t use extreme precision and care. You will more than likely break it. It happened on my car. Granted, mines more of a cheap city xar to get from one place to another, bit still.
5 minute short online video, youtube/any fediverse alternative.
Open: massive fucking hurricane.
Scene 2: officials standing around talking about it. One guy gets an idea. Let’s nuke it.
Scene 3: nuke viciously detonates dead centre of hurricane on ground.
Scene 4: hurricane turns orange. Narrator exclaims: “Well, that fucked it”

I think, and I may be wrong here, but that’s for archiving things that could potentially be important. Like, for AITA, someone might asked, and another could look for answers on that situation.
To me, it just seems like archival purposes. Just think how many times you’ve searched for something, and the best result is reddit. Having all of that hosted here as well, can become a backup incase reddit, some how, fully buries itself. No point losing tons of helpful information.
Edit: I forgot. It doesn’t do comments. So, I guess some subs would be a bit more pointless saving. I can see it being helpful for others where comments aren’t really needed though, but that doesn’t happen often.
Gonna go take any, if I even get them, future dates to a car wash and wash eh hell out of cars. Or bring them home and just clean.
Don’t worry. I just used an obsolete English word.
Man, that honestly sounds so good.
I’ll nod to everyone or return a wave. Stay safe out there, mate.
I think being a troll should go like this, and I’ll use the wiae Tom Scott’s words here because he summed it up pretty well
“it turns out that while mocking the government is a reasonably good gag, mocking the government and then having the government not find it funny, that is a really good gag.”
The moral here, don’t just troll random people with lives to life. Troll the government and arsehole corporations.
Meta: you have to give us money to federate with us.
Every other instance owner: coolio, don’t care. Fuckity bye
A Kawasaki ninja 650. It might not sound like much. But, its given me something to look forward too. Before I was really lost. I thought life just isn’t worth living. But now? I still feel like that. But, its given me such a sense of freedom, and, whilst I haven’t actually met any other bikers yet. It just feels a lot nicer. Like, when I’m out and I see another, its just a simple not. But, I feel apart of something now.
I’ve been riding around 2 weeks now. But I still get giddy when I ride. I love it. More than anything I’ve had before. And I haven’t felt like this since I was with my first gf.
This became quite long. Sorry.
Beautiful, man. I’ll return the favour.
Do you think politicians care about rape? Chances are. If the numbers are higher, their crimes go unnoticed more.
