They don't care about the topic, they don't care about the facts or a logical debate. They only care about getting a reaction out of you. Don't give them what they want.
Today was my first day back from vacation. So many emails... I just kept scrolling through all the unread and felt defeated. I allowed myself extra distractions today while trying to at least prioritize things, but it ended up being a surprisingly productive day somehow. On to tomorrow.
No need for the \s. That is literally how they did this "study". I'd be interested to see who it was that paid for this bullshit, wouldn't be surprised to see the money trail leading back to commercial real estate.
The article boasts the headline front and center % productivity loss, as though this was some years long extensive study. The section of the report discussing these results is less than two paragraphs long. I've seen high school students put together a more detailed a well researched study.
What bothers me the most is that people will readily reference this article and spread this bullshit everywhere, with basically no one having read the study or put any critical thinking into this at all.
I don't know if it's increased since covid but people seem to have shifted from anti cycle to outright openly hostile towards cyclists, at least where I live. I can't count the number of incidents I've had this year alone where I've had to swerve to avoid someone angrily forcing their way into a bicycle lane, running lights or going out of turn in a four way stop, or just intentionally grazing me because fuck bicycles apparently
So now they've confirmed existing basic plan members are also being targeted "in the near future". No problem, I've saved them the trouble for myself. I had mostly stopped using it by now anyway, not even worth the $10/month I was wasting on it
I was using this arrow more when I was driving different vehicles for work. We have two vehicles and each has the tank on the opposite side, so I had just trained myself to use the arrow now. Just something I had gotten used to doing I guess
Yes! That and anxiety overall has increased. I don't think I can blame it all on hormone changes but definitely has increased the last few years into my 40's. It's not really focused on any one thing, more of a general sense of dread or fear of someone attacking me. Mindfulness has helped but not entirely.
For years I had recurring dreams where I was lost wandering an endlessly large building - usually office buildings with hundreds of hallways and stairwells that led to more endless hallways. Haven't had them as often the last few years but they always left me feeling down the next day.
I had the same experience, and I've had Baconreader premium for many years. I had developed a habit of constantly reloading it in an endless search for new content. I'm interested in trying new things though, both this and Mastadon.
Don't feed the trolls.

You know, I feel like lately every other article in that paper is an advertisement for Quarks
Meh, what does that idiot know anyways, this is delicious!
Reminds me of the Why Are You Closed?!? guy
Hahah no, there's nobody driving the bus
Thank you! I noticed the usual feelings of dread creeping in already

But he looks ever so polite, he must have his cheese!

A few have mentioned Hereditary already so I'll give an honorable mention to Dark Skies with Keri Russel.
For Twitch I would say Erin Plays & Mike Matei, oh and also Rat707
Yeah, they sent me an email basically saying "we're sorry" with no offer for free credit monitoring or anything.
Thanks so much for sharing that web comic, I loved it!

I'm imagining their lawyer pulling out their wallet at the hearing and thumbing through their singles to pay the fine.
$5k is absolutely nothing for a typical law firm, lunch money
