That’s the big problem really, affording the ability to fight shit like this.

I’m unfortunately in such a situation where I wouldn’t be able to fight it if they tried to evict me for it.

Though my home state now makes it so they have to allow us to install one, it doesn’t mention them being unable to put restrictions on it’s install. One of those fun things where it’s better than it used to be it’s still not perfect. But steps in the right direction is always a plus.

I’ve seen some insane restrictions on what you can and can’t do in apartments.

Like in my apartment I’m only allowed to put an AC in 1 window of my apartment (the furthest from the bedrooms BTW), it can’t be anything other than a portable AC, and any gap around the hose needs to be clear (glass, polycarbonate, acrylic, etc.) yes even the window insert that comes with the AC has to be clear. When I moved in I thought the insert around the hose that came with it not being clear would be fine, it in fact was not. It also has power draw restrictions so I can only basically get the smallest kinds on the market.

I’m also required to have all windows and doors closed and locked when nobody is at home. Yes that means I have to pull my AC hose out of my window when I’m not home. I figured that out again the first year I lived in my apartment. (they rang my bell when I wasn’t home, then sent me a certified letter informing me I had 72 hours to fix the problem or they would serve me notice to vacate.)

Yes every summer it easily clears 90F (32C) inside and sometimes even breaks 100F (37C). And due to being an upstairs apartment that means the heat stays almost in it’s entirety overnight.

It would literally be illegal for me due to the only road being an interstate bridge during part of my commute, not to mention riding at night on winding roads with no shoulder (blind corners abound) with speed limits of 50+ mph due to my work hours. And of course some roads that have a bike lane (rare in my neck of the woods but improving), it’s illegal in my state to ride any vehicle with a motor (yes even electric motors) in the bike lane. So I’d have to ride in traffic on a bike on aforementioned roads.

I’m not saying other people shouldn’t try to ride bikes or ebikes to work, I’m just saying for me that it’s not possible.

Depends greatly on the state (and in some cases city too) you live in but many have speed limits on them of 25mph (among many other restrictions based on motor wattage breaking them into classes). Any faster, pedals or not, it’s considered an electric motorcycle with all the restrictions that apply there.

But the biggest issue is the lack of cycling infrastructure in general. A shitton of the US has little support for that kind of transport, or any support for those not in cars.

And there’s legal restrictions on what kinds of roads you can ride on as well.

It’s a headache.

Oh I wish I could but my local infrastructure ain’t human centered, it’s car centered.

I may only be 13 miles from where I work but with roads near me being 50+mph with no shoulder or streetlights

It’s supposed to remind people of the stupidity of the “paradox of tolerance”

My goal is to hopefully to spread the idea far and wide that “tolerance is a peace treaty” that hopefully more people will think of it when they encounter the kind of people who scream things like “so much for the tolerant left” and the like.

Having the tools to fight nazis (rhetorical or otherwise) being spread far and wide will help us to defeat them again.

“Venusian speed run here we go!” -fossil fuel execs probably

Tolerance is a peace treaty and the nazis are violating the peace therefore your post is BASED AF

You’ll pry my old outdated terminology from my cold dead hands lol

I keep getting recommended this, it’s next in my queue!

I’m hoping to start it in the first week of August

Except much like minimum wage, some states don’t have anything in place.

Sounds like some based French right there

They really know how to riot

The firefighters he ‘offers’ to send

When I used to have a cat this was true for me too

The moment I’d hear that first retch I would be on my feet

The tools to see the faults yes, we need to drive to take the steps to build the world we wish to live in.

But without the tools to see it’s faults we could never build a better tomorrow.

Living their best lives

But hey, at least we’re harder to mislead and we understand the media we consume better.

This is the male fantasy in a nutshell
