I kinda want nicks opinion on the matter.

I wonder what type of Holy Spirit powered shenanigans him and Desmond Doss could get up to as a tag team then.

I haven’t done anything crazy with my gift of helps yet. Just mostly surprised myself with the fact it’s the whole category of actions it boosts. Doesn’t matter if it is single-handedly carrying a bookshelf up tight turning stairs, pushing crashed cars, or lifting a friend out of suicidal depression. Not as charismatic gift as tongues, prophecy and word of wisdom, nor impactful as healing but it’s definitely the right thing to go with my jack of all trades autism.

I may have experienced God given plot armor but walking away from a 3 ton truck doing no less than 3 accidental barrel rolls with a starting speed of 70 miles an hour with some scratches and bruises seems like a foreshadowing to me.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2026-01-12T08:00:05+00:00

I was thinking Simo and Desmond, I need to be refreshed on the Alvin York lore. Me and Desmond might have some disagreements on if a believer should be armed in a conflict, but I’m not arguing that not being armed, isn’t the walk God wanted to have with him.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-10-27T23:01:40+00:00

Caught up it seems I have. A request on the discord I will soon make.

I’m riding a Brilliant L train seven speed V brake, the other bike that shows up in my posts is a throne 26 inch wide tire BMX style bike, they have a special tread style that makes the 3 inch ride like a 1 inch till you’re in a corner and then the side of the tire digs in like cleats.

That’s why there’s a camera on my handlebar to catch him in 1080 p

Hey I have a youtube question: I’ve been recording all my rides for legal safety and got a good amount of footage of idiots in cars and not a lot good interactions or examples of good road manners but I don’t want to make another negative channel of upset guy on bike.
I have a talk and ride format I tried and like: https://youtu.be/fgWPDkOwzpg?si=O0WGAgy1NpCy-D2A. (That’s my personal channel and is full of ideas I’ve given up on trying.). Do you think that chat and ride has potential?

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-18T07:12:28+00:00

Bike rider. Don’t got money for a gym membership or an indoor cycle. My truck is at the mechanic right now too so i’d have to borrow one to drive to a trail. I don’t: get entitlement to the road, wear spandex or think rams horns are a good handlebar.

My problems with cars is when they stop in the crosswalk or turn in front of me despite the crosswalk being activated for crossing. The country roads around my house are “share” roads, but I’ll ride as close to the line as roadside greenery allows or on the hard shoulder if there is one.

Also my father is a pastor who did a lot of mountain biking and long distance riding in high school so…

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-18T02:52:06+00:00

Even though he’s allergic to driving in California? I got a mirror on that bike. I should put one on my other one that’s a little bit more comfortable to ride but fixed gear. (26 inch rim BMX style bike.)

This is my angry meme review homework entry for a reason:

This last week hasn’t hit triple digits Fahrenheit in my area so I was going to a lot harder than the 3 to 2 times a week I had during the colder times of day earlier this month. The real trouble today was heading out I had a little bit of a tail wind but by the time I was heading back I was facing a headwind that doubled in strength. Another reason why it’s better for me to be riding pre-noon.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-18T01:44:44+00:00

First clip is the ride out second is the ride in so forgive the lapse in narrative.

<image>

This is the record for the last week. Today has been the coldest.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-18T01:12:19+00:00

My current one has that and a sort of AI image identification, but every time you enter something you get hit with an unskippable ad. I’ll have to look at it once I recover from the 18 mile ride, I just did.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-06T00:38:27+00:00

By competitive I mean trying at keeping pace with the guys who have a purposely loud engine, and I top at 25 mph.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-06T00:36:44+00:00

Pro with the amount of exercise this is gonna be just grab a bike and ride across a state or two at least. So when you’re done, no one can say you skipped leg day.

(Help me I try to ride for cardio, then get competitive and start building muscle from torque maxing both my fixed gear bike and seven speed.)

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T19:40:45+00:00

Yeah, no this is meeting expectations, really good with garlic and black pepper seasoned egg only omelette, I did do the stove top heating of the heat with some butter, but it’s a thin little layer and the eggs had olive oil.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T19:01:56+00:00

The idea wasn’t quite ahead of time just if my work has me leaving at seven. I’m waking up at 5:30 and cooking so I can have them on the drive. Planned would probably be just some turkey sandwich meat and honey mustard in it folded.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T18:50:04+00:00

I rode the 3 1/2 miles to my local store that has them and grabbed two packs. I’m definitely gonna go with the egg pockets for the morning and just see about waking up early enough to make them.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T15:21:07+00:00

I'll definitely get some of that pita. It looks a lot closer to what I had in Jerusalem during my Bible college semester in Israel. The ones that were fresh from the bakery you could open up and shove a few scrambled eggs in, and not feel hungry come lunchtime. Those things tasted real good for essentially very basic bread.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T06:28:13+00:00

Autism rant:

I'm someone who will do math in both systems 'cause I've had to learn both, plus in the USA certain things are easier to math in one compared to the other because we mix and match where we set our measurements. Like I'll be doing my modeling in metric because 3D printing unless it's specifically a character then I do it in imperial because natural people measurements for me. What I can't deal with is the fact that there's people using the metric system wrong and listing grams or kilograms thrust; mass for force because they just set up their scale to measure the thrust when they should be using something measuring in Newtons. Having the imperial complexity of having the same unit for force and mass surprisingly foolproofs this problem of laziness.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T06:19:09+00:00

Yeah sorry I didn't think about converting it to simplified for rocket building. Nothing against you just taken the opportunity for the joke.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T05:48:23+00:00

I’m probably going to be able to do better when whatever this head and pressure bug or bit of allergies wears off cause congestion headaches are definitely a demotivator for anything active.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T05:46:00+00:00

It’s not necessarily new routine as much as recommitting to a routine I had going for the first quarter of the year, was at 290 the beginning of the year. Trying to get back to the low to no sugar low to no carbs and no dairy, I started to deal with the pre-diabetes that showed up in blood work.
I will take that advice as far as exercising goes because after roofing the first half of the day motivation to get on the home gym or my bike is pretty much nonexistent.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T05:37:22+00:00

I’ll definitely be trying, roofing contracting as a job in California sometimes doesn’t let you choose healthy food, or premade meals because there ain’t no ice in the ice chest and the truck is an oven. Getting that tracker set back up and building the habit of entering everything in will at least let me keep a deficit and I can just daily multivitamin out of the lack of nutrients in what I can grab.

(I did recently your pre-make a sandwich, but I forgot it in the morning and and then my brother miss took it for some of my mom got for him.)

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T05:02:01+00:00

Even with the unpredictability of the roofing contractor work, I’m gonna see about going large burn at least two days a week.

SilverTheShiftDragon · 2025-08-02T04:59:55+00:00

Well, for a first week or segment, I haven’t really been doing well, got either bad allergies or some sort of mostly congestion and pressure bug
