A lot of the bike routes are mapped using car data. If you are biking on a one way street and have to turn around, maps will route you around the block (uphill) like a car, even if there’s a sidewalk you coukd bike or walk down instead.
It’s not super great for biking data, but it works. It tends to miss protected bike lanes, though.
It was really nice. We went prior to the Olympics, but Paris and other parts of France are beautiful and lovely each in their own way. It feels very much like home, yet foreign at the same time.
I will never forget how immaculately well kept the American graves were at the beaches of Normandy. They treat them with such respect, and it brought tears to my eyes. The people of France will always have a spot in my heart for what they’ve done for us in our time of need and for the utmost respect they have shown our ancestors in both world wars.
There was a book I read called “Domesticated” that permanently changed my view on pets. The book had chapters broken out by animal and also had before/after pictures of certain animals from a century ago vs what we have now, after the influencer puppymills and such got their hands on them/inbred them to shit.
We have hideously deformed some animals that used to look much, much different a century ago, and those animals now pay a steep price in pain and life expectancy.

Most of the time, yes. Though certain cough medicines have been apparently using benzene in them, which is insane. (Cheaper to produce)
You can look for carbomers in the inactive ingredients list, but they don’t have to put that info in if they don’t want, which is insane to me. We need regulations that ban carcinogens like benzene being used for the manufacturing of drugs.
Who on earth does heroin at a Christmas party? :p
Dragoneer?
I love a good hardcover, but tend to flip between hardcover, paperback, and kobo e-ink. I try to buy used books where possible just for the environmental impact. They are often less expensive, too.
Whenever I think about these things, I just think of the UK and how long they’ve been around. Wars, plagues, economic meltdowns, etc. They may not be the global power anymore, but on the whole, things seem to be working out fairly well for them. For the rest of developed countries, I don’t worry much either.
The only countries I do actually worry about are China and russia, since both have lost generations of people either to capital flight, or self-imposed policies that have erased generations of young people and women. There’s no way to undo that generational damage, even if you started importing immigrants 24/7 to get married and all that. Generally, big upsets like that result in massive wars/starvation/mass purges/etc.
That said, if I were Germany, I’d be working to get off LNG as soon as possible. I’d be looking at advanced nuclear and securing non-russian nuclear fuels in case climate change causes the ocean currents to shift and make things hotter/cooler around the north Atlantic and North Sea. Nothing good can come from russian LNG at this point. Investing in R&D in renewables, scientific advancements, and clean energy is probably where I’d be retrenching my economy.
Damn, you and me both! I kept falling for queer women! They gave off really good, genuine vibes that just clicked with me. Of course, I also dated straight women, but usually fell for bad ones. Then I really hit it off with a guy, which was new for me, but he turned out to be freaking awesome, and we are now engaged, years later. Go figure. xD

Insane rent hikes. Landlords and corps shouldn’t be able to raise rent from $1,700 mo to $8,000 mo in a single period, let alone a handful of years.
I miss actual hobby subs. So much of what’s posted here is just rage bait drummed up from dubious sources. I miss subs that had regular interaction for stuff like growing cactus, troubleshooting and flying multicopters, and mountainbiking subs.
Their analogs exist here, but have one post every three weeks.
I don’t miss how corporate reddit felt in the late 2010s though, and early 20s. Once the AMA sub got ruined, I knew it was the end of an era. They never should have shot that fucking gorilla, that fucked 2016-2021.
It’s like making chicken soup,” said the cook, an independent producer based in the cartel stronghold of Sinaloa state. “It’s mega-easy making that drug.”
They paid 3700 for everything needed, including the glassware. The article details it all, even the pill presses and new analogs that hadn’t been discovered before, in the arms race against banning or restricting fentanyl precursors. The sellers themselves stated in the article exactly how to make the drug, including step by step guides, and chemical diagrams explaining the Gupta method.
Oooh, I’m reading through the Hyperion series again right now. I will have to check this out afterwards. Thank you!
They are wild animals, but are almost eerily human.
They are incredibly smart and highly emotionally intelligent. Their families are very much like our own human families, and knowledge is passed down through generations. Some families pass down specialized knowledge that puts them on par with hunter-gatherers. I’d put wolves on the short list of intelligent species who could eventually evolve into a species that could be capable of much more, given a long enough timeline where they self-select for intelligence. Same with elephants, ravens, dolphins, chimps, and whales.
Though that would have to exist on a planet where we didn’t kill most of them and wreck the environment.
Probably a managed democracy like Russia. I wouldn’t be suprised if Trump ‘ran’ for a third term after this one. He’s going to fuck the voting system if he wins again. Not to mention all the horrific shit in project 2025, which will fire most of the non-aligned government staff running stuff like NOAA. Good luck with hurricane and fire predictions when the head of NOAA is some Amazon author, lmao.
You screw the Canadians, Mexicans, Ukrainians, and a bunch of normal countries around the world, not to mention some other friends across the pond.
Protest voting is exactly what Trump is hoping people will do because he knows his constuency is too small if people turn out to vote in greater numbers.
