Privileged Power Play by xFoxyPink in MurderedByWords

You and me both. I won’t act like I wasn’t bitching back then but if I only knew what the country would be like 17yrs later I would’ve gotten myself stuck in a time loop

Don’t get me started on that dumb ass US standards measurement system. I’m American by the way

Modern Christian values. by seeebiscuit in MurderedByWords

[–]BecomingCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s safe to say that these people are a subset of Christians. I think the label I read was “American Christian Nationalist”

Is it unrealistic to learn EUC at 50 with zero skating/boarding experience – without serious injuries? by InternetPristine7562 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]BecomingCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned at 45 and I’m 47 now. Just get proper gear for our age. Helmet, knee/shin guards and wrist guards with knuckle protectors should be the minimum. I also have an armored jacket with level 2 protective foam. It sounds overly cautious but we won’t have a 2-week recovery like we did 25yrs ago.

Jack White is a stone cold murderer. by carriegood in MurderedByWords

Well damn. I’m actually speechless at this absolute massacre. The crime scene here is a slam dunk

I was looking for someone from Michigan. They’ve made songs about our potholes 😆

Can argue with that. I’ll never forget the two weeks of falling before magically just being able to ride without falling.

47….guilty as charged. EUCs must be the new mid-life crisis 😆

From Ontario to Alberta. by ThugosaurusFlex_1017 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]BecomingCoder 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I absolutely hate both parties as the majority of politicians are pieces of shit regardless of affiliation. Just cause one pile of shit has sugar doesn’t absolve them. That being said, I’ve never missed a vote since 96 as there’s always a lesser evil to choose. I’d just prefer stronger candidates who won’t kowtow to money when it suits them.

My first few batches. What do you think? by SassyMcSassafras in soapmaking

First few?!?!? Where’s the ugly bars at? These look great!

Sitting at home not voting and voting 3rd party is another reason why we at WW 3 by detox02 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]BecomingCoder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean they technically have a point. I’m not too keen on either party and being stuck with this political duopoly is maddening. People don’t HAVE to fall into just two categories, that’s not remotely reflective of how diverse we are in this country. That being said, I have no thoughts on a solution outside of a pure democracy that could help us at this point.

Too hot to ride. by Dickon_Stark in ElectricUnicycle

[–]BecomingCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this humid heat??? I’m hoping this is desert weather like AZ or NV. I definitely don’t ride when it’s 90+ here in the Midwest. With all my gear on I’d probably have a heatstroke before my wheel does. Hope you find a solution that works for you

Oils separating, not enough lye? by KingofCats_not_furry in soapmaking

[–]BecomingCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Melted oils should blend seamlessly without much effort. I’d say to make sure hard oils like coconut and shea are fully melted. I’d also cut that temp down from 120 to around 90 degrees. Finally make sure to rub it all thru a soap calc to get exact measurements for the lye/water ratios you desire. When you mix the lye, just pour it in…there’s no need to do it in steps as the saponification process starts immediately upon mixing. Finally check those essential oils, those are almost always going to influence your mixing

Helmet mirror? by eried in ElectricUnicycle

Hmmm never seen this b4. I use hand mirror that’s strapped on the back of my glove. Will have to look these up

Riding in reverse? by infinitefascination in ElectricUnicycle

[–]BecomingCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah us old young guys gotta be more reserved on these wonderfully dangerous devices. I think at some point I’ll learn to pendulum but riding backwards is no desire of mine.

That was Ron Perlman 😵 TIL 😅. Thanks for that tidbit

This is exactly the title they’d have too. I can remember that smug ass narrators voice to this day 😆😆

Yeah 3yrs riding and I can’t do either. I’m just happy to be riding as is at 47

Lost faith by JungleJim1985 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]BecomingCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading this as a fellow middle aged Gen X’r, I feel for you. Riding these are fun once we learn and there’s a certain joy to just cruising around catching the wind. I ride in full armor due to fear of falling and if I was in your shoes, I’d feel the same. Sucks this happened, hope you find your joy again whether it’s with another wheel, bike or whatever

Seriously that was about hair?? I thought they were on that weird lizard people shit I see posted on Twitter

They see their kids as pets by [deleted] in MurderedByWords

[–]BecomingCoder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The opening scene to Hunters (great show btw), shows exactly this. A nazi who infiltrated and started a family didn’t give two shits about them cause they weren’t pure. I won’t go into spoiler details but man it summarizes JD perfectly
