The irony is, anyone who really genuinely cares about the vision of Israel as a safe haven for Jewish people understands that Israeli safety and Palestinian liberation go hand-in-hand. You cannot repeatedly attack and abuse your neighbors and then act surprised when your neighbors don't like you.

What if I told you it will be the best part of your day, even if it's raining?

They probably don't give a shit about their own workers, let alone someone else's "spoiled" union ones.

The forecast is a string of 30% and sunny - I'm gonna be well beyond the return window for my new rain pants by the time I get to really test them. bsky.app/profile/chri...

The "Goose Chasing Guy" meme "Israel will withdraw their troops to an agreed upon line"? Is that "line" the Gaza–Israel BORDER motherfucker?!?

That's some emotionally abusive behaviour right there. Fuck that guy. That's one of those things where, if I saw that in person, I'd probably get in a fight.

This'd be great if I could get a drivers license in the same format so I can get rid of my wallet entirely πŸ˜†

Stuck in traffic, Highway 1 motorists wonder whether widening work is worth it | CBC News As more major construction on the Trans-Canada Highway is set to begin in the Fraser Valley next year, motorists crawling along Highway 1 are already wondering when the work is going to end.

"It's going to make a difference, but I think we need more than one extra lane, I think we need to be thinking more into the future."

So, like, each of us cyclists can hold YOU personally responsible for the behaviour of ALL the drivers in the entire world then, right?

YOU WANT RESPECT ASSHOLE? I saw a driver roll a stop sign in 1983, YOU FUCKING SCOFFLAW πŸ™„

If you see anyone looking for novel LC research areas, please suggest neck/collagen/CCIs. That's my LC phenotype and (not being CFS) feels entirely unrecognized - despite there now being 100's of posts on the LC forum... www.reddit.com/r/covidlongh...

Hey, that one is even better! Not sure why there's so many choices, but hey, it's like Linux lol.

Sorry, I've never tried to use it for routing - I just use the "OsmAnd" app on my phone and use it to find the nearest bike route here and then follow the signs lol.

I love cheese. Costco is the only place I feel it's still remotely affordable - but you get so much you need a plan. I'm also lamenting $4.50 for a litre of chocolate milk next door at Save-On.

I haven't had the tachycardia in 2 years now. I still avoid max-HR tho. It's taken me that long to even be comfortable edging my HR back up. I'm still high some days and low others. Currently suspect cerebral venous outflow stenosis due to my neck (swollen disaster). Would love a competent GP.

My GP did nothing until I got exercise induced sinus tachycardia (Max HR is 176, but spiked to 230) and then referred me to a cardiologist who said I'm fine after the Holter monitor showed no arrhythmia ("HR rising w exercise is normal"). Now I mostly just give up. Maybe I'll keel over someday.

Ahhhhh, yeah, this is suspiciously similar to my last 5 years of LC too.
