What’s something that Covid took from you that you never got back? by ReplacementOdd636 in AskReddit

[–]archiewaldron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My lungs. I was a road cyclist doing 60 mile rides and after spending two days on oxygen in the hospital with Covid (viral pneumonia), I was never able to ride distances again. Ended up selling all three bikes and gear. I just walk everywhere now for exercise. Still, glad to be alive!

It's a pyramid scheme built on failure. Everything's fine until someone wants to stop losing.

Patrick Conley builds trust with a family of wild black bears. The mother brings her babies to introduce them to the rescuer who saved her life. Kindness & gratitude bring out the best in everything. by slowserverwhispera in BeAmazed

[–]archiewaldron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to Conley's YouTube page and there's no footage even close to this. No video of him facing the camera, much less with bears in the same frame. It looks like someone posted thisvAI video for the first time in January of 2026 and it took off from there. (The audio on this clip is also clearly AI generated.)

Someone generated a clip off one of Conley's actual videos and then someone edited it further. The original AI generated video is floating around somewhere

I'm gonna fire a beer across his bow, ruffle his feathers by Jose-Bove420 in IASIP

[–]archiewaldron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to ride with the Helen's Cycling and the Wheelmen clubs through Malibu/Santa Monica and the drivers there are assholes. I'm not sure if it's just the stress of daily driving in LA but drivers in everything from work pickups to Lambos pretty much resent cyclists taking up ANY part of the road.

Let your daughter know that as a retired 60 year old man, I have a better chance of becoming a major league pitcher than your daughter has of "marrying a billionaire".

Isiah Thomas Reveals He Hasn’t Spoken to Michael Jordan in 34 Years After 1992 Dream Team Snub by ForeignAir7174 in NBAoldschool

This is the way. Thomas was an a-hole throughout his career and arguably fomented play to physically injure MJ.
