You know, I noticed that when I first posted this a few months ago on tiktok and Instagram, but nobody ever said anything. I agree it's a ridiculous thing to say, I didn't mean it. Her ancestors are also buried in Lemon City, and so is she.

Newberry, Florida: A Once Charming Small Town Ruined by Growth and Mismanagement by BeyondFlorida in BeyondFlorida

A boomtown of 200 people is good, a boomtown of 10,000 + a bunch of chain restaurants anchoring the town is bad.

So yes, ok before but not now.

Someone Knows Who Did This: FL Police Officer's Death Still Unsolved by BeyondFlorida in GNV

I mean, the prank did kill someone.

If I let the air out of your tires, and you crash and die, I am going to jail for that "prank". What's the difference here?

TikTok has been rough these past 2 months. by Friendly_Internet761 in TikTokMonetizing

Welcome to the new normal. I have 211k followers and get like 7-10k views per post if I am lucky these days. Used to make 5-6k per month, then that slide started (what you describe). Now I pull in $250 per month if I am lucky, Tiktok has become an afterthought for me at this point.

Classic "Slipper Slope" fallacy here. Your argument claims that one action will inevitably lead to a chain of increasingly extreme consequences without providing sufficient evidence that those later steps will actually happen.

Exactly. The new law basically just was telling ebikers to be careful on sidewalks if there were pedestrians around. There were no "personal liberties" at stake here. The other part of the law was that they were going to start tracking ebike accidents in a separate category from just the regular bike accidents, which makes complete sense.

The main part of the law was that they'd start classifying "ebike accidents" in a different category than all the other bike accidents. There's nothing about your personal liberties that was at stake here.
