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

We all either love horror films, or hate horror films. What's that film that kept you up at night? The one that you re-watch all the time? The one that made you groan at 'the big reveal'?...
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
Not sure if this is common knowledge or not. Why YSK it’ll save you the guessing game of which side your gas tank is on when pulling up to a gas station.
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
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 was initially introduced to Mastodon a few years ago by a close friend and picked up on it quickly given the benefits of not having to deal with advertising, or being shown what a mega-corporation thought I should have to see through algorithms. I have since found a great instance over on cupoftea.social that promotes quality...
found this from a Mastadon post, but I am also looking for a Reddit alternative. I have loved Mastadon since moving over and am excited to see what Kbin has for potential. I'm still learning how the whole fediverse works (seeing Mastadon posts on Kbin etc) but getting there
Yea I think it's been this way for quite a while now, it's just that most women probably don't overtly advertise it for obvious reasons. I would consider myself a very casual gamer, but there are games like Tears of the Kingdom that I spend a lot of time in. So I do use my Switch often, same with the 3DS before that.
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.

For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.
