Damn, you weren’t even exaggerating a little.

Thanks for bringing the receipts on these atrocities, they’re both hilarious and heartbreaking 🥲

I post this in jest, you seem like you can take it in stride 🙂

Angel is cursed to have better individual episodes (especially toward the end) but to have worse arcs (until the very end). For any Buffy fans, here are some gems that come to mind:

2x17 Disharmony

5x14 Smile Time

6x05 The Cautionary Tale of El Número Cinco

it’s just a natural start to a pipeline

They said they could get the bike to a ridable state (not a trust worthy one, being aluminum frame would mean a high chance of micro fractures).

Glad you got your bike back, but can I ask what this part means? What are the consequences of riding with micro fractures? Will the bike fall apart or bend while you’re riding it, like some kinda cartoon?

Hey thanks I’ll try Anna’s archive too.

Based on your answer and the others, it seems like I just need to practice basic internet hygiene and I won’t get any trouble.

Knowledge and peace of mind are priceless, thanks 🙏

I’m worried about the law’s attention for illegal procurement of otherwise legal works. I’m depriving rent collectors (oh no) and want to stay off their radar.

I guess my threat model is my ISP snitching on me. Realistic consequences? Probably none, this is more of about trying to keep it that way and having peace of mind I guess.

“We are taking a wide street that is four lanes – two in each direction – and cutting it in half for the purposes of a green initiative,” Wasserman said. “But how does that help emergency vehicles? If I’m dying in a fire, God forbid, is the ladder equipped to reach my window?”

Yes, blame the bike lane for a deadly fire 🙄

This is absurd, like 30-50 feral hogs, but for traffic capacity instead of cartridge capacity. They need that 4 lane street to save lives!
