Saw a thought-provoking video from a motorcyclist comparing the impression some people have that they can hop on an e-bike, but how dangerous motorcycles are
And then he lists all the safety gear he wears, and the breaks and controls and etc on the mc, with the high level of training required for a licence (where he lived at least 🙄)
Not many e-bikes on the highway, but speed kills

I’m tempted by one of those #InstantPot air friers that have a dehydrator setting

That is what a healthy society does. The fact that our society is broken is because the super-wealthy have hoarded all the money and they aren’t passing around their $20s x 100,000,000
If we tax the rich people consistently, then it doesn’t matter if we spend the money and it all goes back to the rich because we’ll just tax it and start the cycle over and everyone will keep the money passing around
But right now it’s all stuck at the top. It’s basically a plumbing problem 😅

I know in Georgia it used to be illegal to wear masks at protests because they banned them to target the Klan
But some places, I guess they specifically make it legal to protect things like the Klan?
In which case someone could wear a Klan hood over your N95 I guess?
That would send mixed messages I wouldn’t support though
Maybe a black hood Ana sign that says what you’re doing?
It’s all such a crock to get people killed
Amazing

Makes me want to make “Freedom” branded masks with flags on them or something

That’s hard, when there’s no simple action at the end of the story for people to take that will “make it better” right?
That’s what so many people want
But there’s conditions that don’t get better — and needs that continue…to still be needed
But #Disability should not be a burden by itself
It should be a dignified job like any other
Providing an opportunity for solid employment to aid workers and others, paid for by a functional tax system
That’s a goal for people I guess
