Ugh, did they really co-opt flying the fucking flag upside down? I deliberately put the dumb little flags that came with my shooting earmuffs on upside down because it works well with my “defend equality” patch… This country is in crisis and the fascists are the reason why.
I know, and I’ve known gay men who think the same thing, I’m just contributing my 2¢. Bi-erasure is something that I deal with fairly routinely as a blue collar worker, and I feel that gay folks having an anti-hetero bias is more hurtful than straight people having a hetero bias because I expect to find more community from other LGBT people because I can’t always expect it as a baseline from straight people.
It’s funny in the context, but as a bisexual guy in a poly relationship, it really bums me out when other queer people treat the appearance of heterosexual as a demerit (see gold star lesbians, etc…). Humans aren’t binary in any way, but we act like we can only be attracted to genitals and not have exceptions to a general rule because of an emotional connection.
As someone who rides an already heavy bike (it’s just old), and drives a hybrid, I just don’t personally see motorcycles ever really being a meaningful use-case for hybrid tech. Batteries are heavy and current electric bikes already don’t get fantastic range, so it just doesn’t make sense to add more weight to get less range. Stop-start application may have some use in a dual clutch transmission, or maybe on pulling the clutch in, but that’s only useful in traffic, where you really want consistency and reliability when you don’t have any buffer space, and most bikes get better fuel economy anyways…
Didn’t mean to rant a bit, I was a hybrid and EV diag tech for Chevy for a bit and I gave it some thought.
1984 Honda VF700S and a 1st, then 2nd gen Toyota Highlander hybrid.
They also tend to be wealthier, given that they were eligible for work or school abroad programs.
Is it time to cue up The Day After Tomorrow?
The Israeli flag
The truth is that the belief that the caricature was exaggerated is simply PR. They’re actually just as evil as people made them out to be, not less.
60 days is not the same as during election week, drop the whataboutisn.
I work because I don’t have a choice and I spend my money because even saving 100% of my gross won’t get me even remotely close to affording a house because they keep going up in price faster than my income does.
Makes it easier for the next governor to do, so don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. I live in a state where I can take a huge amount of these things for granted, but as a result I feel like there’s less of a push to change things that are still a problem, so I’m always happy to see Midwestern states making progress because it motivates people in other states to make change too.
Fucken do it then
You’re thinking of Kristi Noem.
