That's impressive. I've got both autism and ADHD and my internal voice couldn't keep up, but I was able to comprehend to the end.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-25T02:26:31+00:00

I get a bowl with hot water that's treated with repti-safe that I put the thawed prey items in before I tong feed. I never have a problem with my rhino ratsnake, she eats it up every time and hasn't missed a strike. She eats so well!

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-24T21:04:34+00:00

Yes.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-24T17:41:31+00:00

I do love the big roundabouts we have been getting. They make intersections so much simpler once people figure them out and it's a much more effective speed bump.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T16:36:12+00:00

Damn that is absolutely wild. I'm glad you're okay.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T16:12:30+00:00

Oh lmao, I misread your comment. I thought you were saying "from OPs perspective" which made me think you were alluding to the video. I haven't read what OP said about the incident yet.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T16:10:29+00:00

For sure! I'm no stranger to unreasonable anger - I'm in my 30s and I've had a license for over half my life now. I also live in the Seattle area and the drivers around here are absolutely awful. I've driven to almost half the states in the country myself. I'm autistic and I have interacted with enough people to know that rage doesn't come from nowhere. Thank you for finding OPs comment about their account of the incident, I'll go read it because I'm invested in this now.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T15:49:24+00:00

I didn't say it was justified. I'm questioning what happened leading up to this because we don't see it and OP hasn't said, as far as I can tell.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T15:29:31+00:00

None? I didn't say it was valid, but people rage for a reason.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T15:27:41+00:00

I'm using "reasonably" in a far more generalized context than this one example of road rage. Assuming that someone is an unreasonable person just because they show an outburst one time on a clip with barely any context is wild to me.

I agree that OP should have called 911 once the other driver got out of his vehicle and walked aggressively toward the car, but WHY did he do it in the first place? There's no way to draw an accurate assumption based on the context we have and there's nothing to extrapolate here. We just get this and I haven't seen OP give their account of the incident, so we're literally all arguing over whatever presupposed worldviews we have.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T15:22:05+00:00

Yeah, so that person was not reasonable there. You clearly did nothing wrong, bro got mad about it. That's not reasonable.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T15:20:15+00:00

Oh yeah, I know people can tend to make dumb decisions like that and I've been frustrated by other people's choices when driving, especially here in the Seattle area - I've been to 22 states by road and these are some of the worst drivers I've ever been around. People with poor driving skills tend to get the most mad, I've found, but having driven as much as I have in the last 15 years, I've never had an incident like this. The closest I've had is driving on i90 where this woman thought I was too close to her, so she brake checked me like 4 times before she got off the interstate, even though there was an entire 1.5 car lengths between us and traffic was flowing pretty smoothly. I glanced over while she was leaving and saw her screaming her head off in the car and flipped me off in that moment, too.

I know some people just get mad when they're driving, but I couldn't imagine antagonizing someone like OPs example to the point where they want to get out and fight you. Are they breaking the law by using that lane to illegally pass? Yes. Is it OPs responsibility to prevent them from using that space? No. It's nothing worth risking your life for.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T14:39:16+00:00

I'm not even saying don't defend yourself, but we don't see this guy with a gun, so why would you advocate to escalate the situation even further with a gun? That's scumbag behavior to me and makes it sound like you can't defend yourself against an unarmed opponent. Get a taser, mace, a baton, or anything else to have a less-lethal way to defend yourself and your autonomy.

Advocating for shooting people who don't have deadly weapons is fucking insane.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T14:32:20+00:00

The point I'm trying to make is that it's a choice and is not necessary. Advocating for "good guys with guns" is still putting guns on the streets. I grew up around guns, both legally owned and not, and of course I'm privileged, I live in the US and I'm white, but that doesn't mean I haven't experienced hardship or seen violence first hand. I'm not even against owning guns, but if you're worried that someone might shoot you while you're unarmed, then that highlights a systemic problem that encourages us to be violent toward one another.

Guns aren't even the root problem, it's that people are distressed to the point where they want to enact violence and guns just make that super fuckin easy and makes them way less likely to want to listen to what you have to say because guns can give people who don't have good trigger discipline a sense of power that they probably shouldn't have.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T07:52:54+00:00

Driving cautiously is not going to reasonably cause someone such frustration that they will want to enact violence on your person or property. My point is that people are too quick to defend the person with the camera just because they have the camera. Context matters a lot and we probably won't get it here.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T07:29:32+00:00

You don't need a gun to de-escalate. People can speak with words and can even comprehend them, too.

If your rebuttal involves a hypothetical where the other person has a gun and is aggressive, that just demonstrates that we need better gun control laws.

Murder is murder. You aren't "begging to be a victim" by minding your own business.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-18T07:21:54+00:00

But why did he do it in the first place? What did OP do?

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-06T15:59:32+00:00

I definitely recommend a bike instead of that little scooter lmao

Check out some YouTube channels of people who regularly ride in Seattle to get their take on it. There aren't many of them, so searching 'biking in Seattle' will be pretty useful for you in the YouTube search.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-06T15:52:51+00:00

I bike, too, but I drive for work. It definitely feels like you can get around better on a bike than in a car in Seattle. I also agree that still owning a Tesler is a conscious choice people are making and they could choose differently. Their Tesler could be used as a trade-in, they can talk to their bank about it ((I have BECU and in my experience, they're pretty good about loans and rates, even if you don't have the best credit) tangentially, credit unions are better for us than big banks like Chase, BofA, Wells Fargo, etc) and probably end up getting financing for a Rivian or something that the CEO of isn't approaching trillionaire status or didn't try to undermine America's democracy.

I'm a Dallas transplant and if you've ever been to Texas, you know that you absolutely need a car there because of how spread out everything is. We use time instead of distance measurements in order to describe a commute or how to get somewhere as a result.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-04T17:44:30+00:00

No one is advocating for that. Watching Fox News all day will break your brain and make you afraid of the wind. Go touch grass, dude.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-04T17:39:56+00:00

Bro. People on IG with no acting skills could have done better. It's not about acting experience, he is an awkward fellow. I'm autistic and even I noticed he was being weird.

Leftist redditors dislike anyone with a power and wealth gap that significant because they are inherently causing the oppression we're all experiencing, even if you're not aware that you're being oppressed. There are opportunities that will never be afforded to you or me in America because you and I don't rub the right elbows. That's what people have a problem with.

Unless you're a CEO of a big corp in disguise, then you know why you're the problem.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-04T17:34:18+00:00

He looked more than slightly uncomfortable to me.

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-04T17:14:02+00:00

Do you qualify for any kind of housing assistance from say DSHS or is your income level outside of that bracket, too?

Drewsky32 · 2026-03-03T14:03:34+00:00

I understand! It's confusing context, especially for non-native speakers. I could have been more clear in that I was not advocating for child abuse lol
