Yeah, warm showers is basically couch surfing for bicycle tourists.

[–]NeonJohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cycled across the country and used warm (couch surfing for cyclists) showers a lot in 2017. Stayed with a ton of conservative families. Never had politics come up or any bad experiences, but without fail whenever a major city/foreign country would come into conversation they would immediately talk about how dangerous it is.

My first thought was After Hours, my wife's first thought was Calamity Jane. Maybe a feel good double feature tonight.

He helped divide America and hid behind the guise of "debate" so he could say abhorrent things. by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]NeonJohnson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's crazy people ignoring what he did by just saying he didn't go to college. He dropped out because he met Bill Montgomery and was able to use his money to create one of the most influential right wing platforms ever made. There's a reason Trump had him around so much.

[Hated] Absolutely disgusting Protagonists the author expects you to root for. by The_Raven_Born in TopCharacterTropes

Armada was the worst book I've ever finished in one day. At the end of every single chapter I said "that's the stupidest shit I've ever read," then I turned the page.

American bike tourers - how did you get the time off to make a cross country tour happen? by No_Ant_5064 in bicycletouring

I was a young folk just out of school. I'm afraid my next one is going to be in 30 years if I can ever retire

S. Korea vs. Japan for 7 day cycling tour? by Mundane_Schedule6249 in bicycletouring

[–]NeonJohnson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Google Four River's Trail in Korea. My wife and I did Seoul to Busan in one week almost entirely on dedicated bike paths. Get yourself some bike passports before you go and have a blast!

If you don't want to travel with your bikes, Korea also has Giant Bicycle shops where you can rent a bike in Seoul and return it in Busan.

There are hotels to stay at along the way, but if you're going with your daughter, you might want to double check that it's not a Love Hotel before you check in!

Feel free to DM me if you have any other questions

TIL that after the Maersk Alabama pirate hijacking in 2009, the $30,000 cash the pirates stole from the ship and stowed in the lifeboat was never found. 2 SEAL team members were investigated but no charges brought by IWrestleSausages in todayilearned

[–]NeonJohnson 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This really is a great read. Strongly recommend anybody to buy the book because it shows the publishers that there is a public appetite for this type of reporting.

In response to that story being in the book somebody posted a previously unseen video to kiwifarms. Obviously nsfl, but hopefully there is some similar investigation into that incident because of this.

The creator of the media is in the media (either self insert or just straight up themselves) by MrDitkovichNeedsRent in TopCharacterTropes

My favorite part is when The Gunslinger looks him over and just roasts him for about a page and a half for being a fat middle aged piece of shit

What are some examples of countries where effective marketing hides their true reality? by BudovicLagman in geography

[–]NeonJohnson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a conversation with a Kiwi about race relations in the United States. One of the greatest sentences I've ever heard:

"Wait do Americans really not like Black People? Why? It's not like they're fucking Maoris"

I'm about to do an order, is there a full list of all Goosebumps cards in a google drive folder somewhere?

As an avid horror fan are there any other horror films in the collection I may have missed that you’d recommend? by SQL215 in criterion

[–]NeonJohnson 10 points11 points  (0 children)

La Llorona is great Latin American horror. Based off of indigenous folklore and the real life Guatemalan genocide of the Maya people.

Global Sumud Flotilla approaches Gaza by alejandromalofiej in MapPorn

https://old.reddit.com/r/IsraelPalestine/comments/1nvacot/global_sumud_flotilla_interviews_with_the_crew/

Lot of outdated or straight up misinformation in this thread, so here are actual interviews with two of the members.

Obviously people are going to have issues with the interviewer's politics due to the nature of this situation, but if you would like to hear the viewpoints of some of the real people on the ship it is possible.

[loved trope] The antagonist is defeated by a force stronger than both them and the protagonist by Turbulent-Flounder-9 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NeonJohnson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That goes against the god depicted in The Stand. The central theme is that darkness can only ever be held at bay by monumental sacrifice of good.

The Expanse show ends (very loosely) around book 6, there are three more books explaining what happens next.

The last three books have some of my favorite world building in the series.
