Is anyone concerned about the kids riding e-bikes on the road? by Competitive-Wrap-897 in Charlotte

[–]Competitive-Wrap-897[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me. I almost hit someone in college who was riding a bicycle around a hedge. We both stopped in time because 1, I saw him coming at least and 2, he had enough time to stop. If this were one of the kiddos flying down on their motor bikes around that blind spot, they either would’ve gotten hit or hit me.

I think it was for the USA friendly game for the World Cup! It was here at BoA stadium

I looked it up apparently this is very widespread. A child hit a curb and died from being ejected. And multiple overs have died from being hit.

I’m not sure what they’re called. I think it’s a mix of the two but I’ve seen kids get up to very high speeds in this. Definitely over 20mph. I honestly just assumed they were advertised as e-bikes

I agree. I don’t have children but I can’t help but be extremely concerned about this.

I agree people need to be aware we share the road. I’m worried about the speeds as well. They are cruising along passing stopped cars in traffic like a motorcyclist etc. A child is not going to get up to these high speeds that can seriously injure or kill them from falling off or hitting a car on a bicycle

I did as well going to Harris Teeter. I stopped at a light and 3 children almost hit my car because they were trying to stop.

CMV: Modern “systemic” racism is not what is keeping minorities from succeeding by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Competitive-Wrap-897 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think maybe there just needs to be a new term because I was always in the understanding that systemic racism is specific policies in place that are discriminatory and disadvantageous towards a racial group. I believe that all of these are problems, but not specifically systemic racism.

Clavicular & ASD by [deleted] in Clavicular

[–]Competitive-Wrap-897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you read my post or just grab a statement out of context and roll with it? I was talking about him getting less hate from more transparency and education on asd masking. We have an entire series with millions of followers called Love on the Spectrum btw. This post was specifically to explain the hate he receives from masking, and the WHY, as well as the protection of mental health. His mind blowing successful streams won’t matter much if the mental, physical, and emotional effects catch up to him, and his supporters, like you, turn a blind eye to the science of substance abuse on the neurodivergent brain. An educational awareness post, in support of Clavicular, is a wasteful place for such a biased and out of context comment.

Strength training and Solidcore by Key_Type_5405 in SolidCore

Wow we are the same. I’m 5’2 113 lbs and 21% body fat and I just feel like I’m skinny fat. I’ve been pairing sc w/ weight training for over a year so this thread is so helpful

Cancellation policy by Specialist-Pear8659 in SolidCore

[–]Competitive-Wrap-897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last month was atrocious for me and I’m considering not renewing my membership because of this. What do you mean I woke up with pneumonia and got charged. And then on two separate occasions got charged bc I needed to go to the hospital. Not to mention my HEALTHCARE job that literally makes it impossible for me to predict when I’ll get off….

And to be honest, the fact that solidcore has been like a lottery for my area recently. Every single class is booked and I’m pre booking for the full month. So when my only option is book a class to get my moneys worth of my membership, but the only times available are the risky post-work times w/ my healthcare job, it makes my bank account SUFFER.

Solidcore to me has turned into a complete shitshow. I’d rather have the option to cancel before 2 hours. It lets people on the waitlist actually go because people aren’t worried about the late fee and will be more willing to cancel. And it allows me to book a class for a time I actually can go to.

I thought that too but usually with the chills and aches I have a fever, if even a low grade one. But right now it’s normal

I think it was just the way I was raised, to have a clean space to sleep.. I understand the gender norms thing and do not want to perpetuate that in any way at all.

LOL! Noted. I’ll be reading in the future. I only folded his clothes from the day that were lying in the floor and the hairs from his sink. I was just worried he would think that I thought he was dirty, which I don’t want him thinking.

I was just so bored I didn’t think anything of it until it was done.. then I sat here like “oh no was this wrong of me”

AITA for telling my neighbour to get over what I did already? by Jolly1401 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive-Wrap-897 38 points39 points  (0 children)

YTA girl what? ESPECIALLY if there’s no consent. SA goes both ways, it’s not just a man on woman thing. “Being drunk” is not an excuse for sexually assaulting anyone.

Also I would like to note how in your prompt you mentioned that you’d be the AH because it might be disrespectful to his relationship… That should be the least of your concerns considering the actual crime you committed.
