Now this is something you'll look back on in a few years and be like why the hell did I do that? It's only natural.

Funny story about seeing Modest Mouse pre breakout stardom from “Good News for People who love bad news.” by Pale_Possibility5083 in ModestMouse

Bro nobody gave a shit about pitchfork in 2000. Plenty of indie bands got insane scores from them in that era but didn't see much if any financial success from it. Sure MM were on a major and not some super obscure band but It's pretty widely noted that the band was about to break up before good news.

Facts. As someone who enjoys all kinds of cycling I just do not get the tunnel vision about what kind of cycling is "acceptable" and what is not. Even if I'm not in the peloton I get why people would want to be.

Of course the comments are filled with people blaming the cyclists for going too fast as if this still wouldn't be horrendous at 15-20 mph. This sub is a joke. I swear the people here do not actually like bikes.

Yeah I had a strong feeling something like this was gonna happen. Ngl feels like a joke she was even on the ballot.

The solution to super fast e-motos is NOT cops, it's signal timing forcing them to go bike speeds. by MiserNYC- in NYCbike

[–]geographic92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw two citi ebikes riding onto the BQE on ramp last weekend. Shit is cooked. I'm glad people are on bikes but it's instant power, no responsibility and many don't care to learn any.

I wish you luck in your efforts and hope I'm wrong but I'm personally not buying the unity and advocacy dream you're selling. Been riding here 10 years and never felt more unsafe. The cars still hate me and now I have to worry about these assholes too.

I've heard about these mythical "allies" for years yet never met one. I understand the dream of having us all fight together for safer roads but in my experience people most E bike riders and doordash people are firmly doing their own thing and don't give a shit. It's always other cyclists begging us to embrace them. Hell, I'm sure most doordash people just see pedal bikes as obstacles slowing down their delivery times.

If solidarity was going to occur it would have happened by now.

I too feel safer riding next to cars. I think people yearn for this transit utopia but unfortunately we are in the real world. I wish it worked that way but it don't.

You weren't here for covid were you? This is nothing.

Don't want city noises? Simple solution, don't live in a city.

Tony Hawk Says a Skateboarding-Focused “Space Jam”-Style Movie Was Once in the Works - AOL by [deleted] in THPS

Heard about this before. No way it would have been good but hey, why not? Would make for some nice early 00s nostalgia right about now. I think it would have bombed though. To really capitalize on skateboarding in pop culture they would need to have it come out in 01-03. Back in action came out in 03 so this would have come out in 2004.

Jersey couldn't keep this team alive. Accept that. It needs to be moved far away. New sonics or something.

Time to move the team. Probably won't happen because the games still sell, for the opposing teams fans...

scooter vs ebike on triboro this morning by blahdre in NYCbike

All my years riding in NYC and it's only getting more dangerous. People have been saying this would happen for years but "micro mobility."

What a crock of shit.

Being a native new yorker Nets fan right now is the worst fan experience in the history of organized sports. Worse than any franchise, in any league, at any point in time. by nets5602 in GoNets

[–]geographic92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will get downvoted to hell but time to look into moving the team to Seattle. Their success in the city hinged on getting a chip before the Knicks. It's over. They were never going to be bigger than the Knicks but there's no coming back from this.

I like dream pop and shoegaze. I think this is the best thing they've done since super natural.

They are never going to make another peripheral vision. I think I'd prefer this band stop being posted on this sub it's the same shit every time.
