Bit different as I’m on a bike but…

I bring: Enough extra water for someone else. Extra medical supplies

What a wonderful experience.

I loved every minute of the week.

So many genuinely kind and caring people.

The most staggering revelation I had was that many of my preconceived judgments based on stereotypes were way wrong. We camped with people that I would not normally connect with in the default. Some of these people I think have the potential to be strong, lifelong friends

There’s more in common Than there is a difference.

People go on and on about Tech, Bros and sparkle ponies, but scenarios like this, allow those of us, with the best intentions to shine. I hope this year’s Takeaway is more about the strength of unity than anything else

To me yes.

I believe environment opens people up in a way not found commonly outside of the event.

It’s also a selection bias situation. Those that go are more inclined to bring open maybe.

I grew as a person, made friends, and shared feelings with strangers openly.

10/10 experience.

The back one is even worse. You have to pull up the cup holder mat and pry out a clip before you can pull a wire.

You would t leave your other belongings on the road. Why has leaving you car been normalized!

All the fuss over there really left a bad taste in my mouth.

Lemmy is what Reddit was meant to be so many years ago

It’s too bad some of the great content posted there will be lost over time.

Those damn gas station sunglasses I’ve had for like 15 years. Still good enough that I haven’t replaced them…

Seriously though,

I think the BIFL movement overvalues brands.

Looking for quality and intentionally buying something you like that will be with you for years is more important to me.

Buy less, repair it, use it longer.
