Yeah I can get behind the others being thought enders but 'you only live once' it's a phrase I use unironically pretty frequently. Life is short and you should do whatever it is you want to do while you're here as long as it doesn't harm others.
People will probably study this phenomenon for a long time to come, but people become wildly fanatical when a person in power shares their bigoted views and people in power can't seem to resist turning it up to 11 because those types of fans make you feel like an absolute god.
Maybe from her POV being famous for writing the books became mundane, but all these people suddenly treating her like she's a sociopolitical genius probably hits that reward button so well she just can't stop taking another hit.
At 100 km/h (low-end highway spreed), or 1,666 m/minute, or 27.7 m per second, a 2 second gap leaves approximately 56.6 m (185.6 feet) between cars. With the average car length being ~4.9 m (~16 feet), even the absolute worst driver can merge in a space ten times the size of the average car, assuming they're matching highway speed.
Most people have no actual concept of how long 2 seconds actually is or how much space it would leave in reality.
Yeah, that's because you know how to drive. I can't tell you how many people just turn in front of a truck and expect it to slow down for them. Playing with their lives.
Another thing that enrages me is people who think driving slowly is safer for whatever reason.
Getting on the highway? Let's SLOWLY merge at 60% the speed of oncoming traffic.
Changing lanes from stationary traffic into a full speed lane? I won't wait for the lane to clear, I'll just turn signal and move into the lane REAL SLOW because that's safe.
Turning right? Let's slow down to a complete stop and force traffic to a halt so I can turn right.
As a delivery truck driver I can't tell you how many people think that everyone else can just stop on a dime for them and they're being safe because they move over at a snail's Pace.
Yup. Be predictable, not courteous. You'll save lives.
I'm fine with moving forward and using his car as my new stop line until the lane is clear. He's the asshole for assuming everyone waiting behind him wants to be as courteous and patient.
This is honestly one of the most stupid things I've read in recent times on Lemmy. This take is so brain-dead that I worry for you. For any of what you wrote to make sense it takes a level of propagandization that would make Reagan and orange Hitler cum in each other's pants. Thank you for setting the bar so high for morons everywhere.
You bastard son of a dog-fucking whore. I won't click your link you nazi piece of shit.
Because they're idiot hipsters who want to live in trendy places.
None of that is luxury, it's overpriced garbage for morons who destroy every neighborhood they move into.
I'm perfectly fine with hating and even blaming developers. These are people who have decided that making money is a good enough excuse to cause suffering.
I haven't seen anything like that, but the more people join this place the more trash will enter along with them.
Can I ask if there were specific communities?
