124·3 years agoIt has been statistically proven that white women get easier sentences than men of any race. Her age also probably played in to that.

Of course you can’t predict the future, and neither can motorists. What you can do is ride at a speed reasonably slow enough that you can react to people, and you can ride on the side of the pathway further from the doorways.
And like I said already, a bike on person accident at slow speed is favorable to risking my own life or life-changing injury by riding in the street.
If you’re trying to change my mind, stop trying. For anyone reading this, petition your local government to build safe bike lanes with solid barriers and we won’t have to have this argument.
so the only case these apply are when the cyclist isn’t paying attention to their surroundings… which is the real reason it’s dangerous, and when you eliminate that, I would rather have bikes passing next to people than cars passing next to bikes, because the latter is actually deadly when someone does make a mistake

13·3 years agoWhat that republican senator is doing is immature but military readiness isn’t really that important considering our massive lead over every other country in the world, not to mention our extensive network of allies. Nobody is invading the USA.
Military spending needs to be cut by at least 25% and then maybe we’d have some money to spend on actually relevant concerns
But yes, it shows the partisan and regressive attitudes of the current GOP. It’s sad to see that the OC seems to care about making progress on important issues like public welfare only to get brainwashed into thinking it’s the left’s fault for being inefficient. There is some truth to that but the reason our advocates of social progress can’t get anything done is specifically because of the GOP’s zero-sum stonewalling.
Baseless statement, elaborate
It’s not more dangerous for pedestrians because I am aware and respectful of them.
So tell me exactly how it’s more dangerous for me to be on a further-removed pathway, protected by a curb and other objects like light posts.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?English
2·3 years agoHonestly a music platform is one of the only places I would actually welcome targeted ads. Where it can analyze my taste and suggest new music accordingly. But instead they just promote the highest bidder which is always lame pop music.
you know you could afford way more nice stuff like avocados and macadamia nuts and fresh veggies if you cut down on drug spending

1·3 years agoHe hated twitter for how effective it was in spreading awareness on progressive issues. Him and all the other billionaires want that platform split up, and it only costs him $44b, a fraction of his net worth.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Parents used to warn their kids that literature would rot their brains. Then it was the radio, TV, and video games. Now it's TikTok.
101·3 years agoIt may be hypocritical, but have you considered that all of these forms of entertainment are unhealthy? The only difference is that they get more and more efficient with each generation, causing increasing levels of concern from each generation. That’s indicative of a rising trend

61·3 years agoThe fact that people have been concerned about this for generations doesn’t automatically nullify the point. Attention and focus are skills which children must develop through boredom and long-form focus. TikTok brain is making that harder and harder for children to learn.

321·3 years agoMusk is intentionally killing twitter confirmed. First he tried to tank its value and retract his buy offer but was forced in to the purchase by the SEC. So now he’s just playing the long game by killing it step by step with his own hands.
True that many countries may find themselves lacking to the USA. Americans meanwhile don’t compare themselves to anybody, completely ignoring all the countries which are leaps and bounds ahead of us in terms of social justice & public welfare.
State should not have the right to pick and choose like that. Textbook way of taking away people’s liberty.


that’s one way to get a leg up
