1% means the solution doesn't work by itself. We need elevated crossings, narrower lanes, traffic lights that priotize non-car road users. I am not going to appreciate a solution that trusts that drivers are paying attention without making them uncomfortable enough to FORCE them to pay attention.

1% means over 100 people every day ignore the beg button and blast through. 1% is a lot of people.

Literally me when Josh Strife Hayes posted the AdventureQuest video

Safer for the occupants, but not for those OUTSIDE the vehicle. Very important distinction.

Lmao "good tech" my ass. There is a beg button in my town and about 1% of drivers completely ignore it. That is way too many people just speeding through.

When I was younger, it could feel like a super power when I could hyper focus on something, but as I grow older, my body is showing clear signs of long term damage from substance abuse as self medication as well as getting fat from food binges following 12 hours hyper focus sessions.

It turns out eating 3600 calories in one meal is worse than 3 800 calories meals. Who would've thunk.

Eventually, the "good job" stops coming. The little oversights start to pile up. It's not a super power. It's damaging physically to act like it is.

I love the hyper focus, but the fucking thing is slowly killing me.

So if I'm using one of those single cup keurig-like machines that don't actually use cups, I'm a Mint user?

Ah, but I was scared for my life with or without a helmet when sharing with cars. Now I still am, but they're also scared for me. A couple guys I met told me so. They recognized me at a store and told me "it's dangerous to not wear a helmet. I had to follow you from further out". I realized then that wearing a helmet could encourage not just myself, but others, to do dumbass shit.

I guess it depends on your community. I live in a small exurb that's got solid rural roots. There's like 3 big streets and 2 of them have the same name.

But yeah I wear a helmet in winter cuz ice n'shit. I'm dumb, not stupid

Duuuude I'm 3 of them!! I just don't understand money at a grand scale enough to be into one tax system over another. Seems neat the way you explain it but I really don't fucking understand money like that.

Those aren't rocks they're bags of money

I don't think I've ever been as happy at work as working the line at McDonald's. Maybe there's something there..

I sent wedding documents 3 days before the time limit for the govt to receive it.

I have learned to never again manage any paperwork for someone else than myself. I think I was close to a stroke at the end.
