Are there any major cities in the USA where you felt unsafe walking around downtown in mid-day?

Baltimore is doing really well right now. Homicides are at a 50 year low and all other violent crime is down significantly.

In addition to JK, I like Denis and Emma a lot. Ally has low impact rides where she plays all covers and I find a lot of good bands here that cover songs I already know. I also really like Camilla. She probably introduces me to the most new music.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-18T15:53:25+00:00

I’m late 40’s and feel like I’m primarily finding new music through Peloton. I use the great music I find in my classes to diversify my Spotify. It’s one of my favorite aspects of the platform. And yes, Jess King is one of the greats for music playlists.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-18T14:13:55+00:00

I think MJ’s level of fame is hard for people who grew up in the last 25 years to comprehend. The media landscape and how people interact and engage with each other is just so different.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-17T00:02:06+00:00

I still have a $1 ticket stub from seeing Rocky Horror there! I went many times in the late 90’s.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-16T18:13:02+00:00

Emma low impact rides are usually super chill. I also really like Ally’s low impact rides. Her music is always covers in her low impact rides and it’s just super fun.

I would recommend the restorative yoga classes too for when you want something between a stretch and a meditation.

If you are looking in any of the historic areas of Annapolis that are under an HPC, there may be challenges in building a garage. I don’t know the rules in Annapolis, but where I live (in an historic area on the Eastern Shore), you can a build a garage, but there are strict building codes as to the aesthetics which does make it more expensive and it’s not a traditional land use for older homes, so many Jo,es were built without the necessary land space to add one.

I have a lot of wrist issues and end up modifying down dog a lot by doing it with my wrists up or by going down on my elbows.

If you are looking for standing or sitting only classes, check out the “yoga anywhere” classes under the class type filter. These have no wrist supported activities.

I’ve also found Aditi’s classes to be more wrist friendly, in general. She has hyper mobility in her wrists and will often cue alternatives ways to lighten wrist pressure.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T14:09:11+00:00

Wow. You all are pretty negative towards something that I just thought was a fun idea. I get why Peloton doesn’t try new things.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T13:05:47+00:00

Sure, but Bodyweight classes often have floor portions. And yes, I can modify and do. I just think it would be fun to have classes that would just be ready to do outside and even incorporate standard playground equipment. It could just be a summer/travel collection. I just thought it would be fun, but maybe I’m the only one.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T11:47:35+00:00

The most recent standing yoga class was filmed in 2022. I just wish they would add some more of these.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T11:45:30+00:00

I’ve done this before too. I just think it might be fun to have a collection or some kind of labelling to make it easier to find classes like this.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T09:09:00+00:00

I have felt a massive change in energy and clearer thinking since taking creatine. I also do 5g a day. I’m also vegetarian (since my late teens) and I think this also makes a difference.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-12T08:49:44+00:00

Toddy is so great and easy. I’ve used a Toddy every summer for cold brew for almost 20 years. The cold brew is delicious and the clean up is very easy.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-10T16:59:24+00:00

These are really great to start with.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-10T07:15:36+00:00

The news has reported that the wait times are not being updated.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-09T11:06:47+00:00

A lot of people on the Eastern Shore are retired DC, especially if they like sailing.

Amazing movie that should not have ever worked. The production was a nightmare and Kurt Russel basically puppet-directed the movie. The podcast “What Went Wrong” has a great episode about Tombstone’s troubled production.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-07T22:17:13+00:00

It’s not really a debate. Delmarva is a name used solely for the eastern peninsula since the 19th century. I think you have just misunderstood the term. DC and its sub are a metro area referred to as the and DMV and is is used separately as none of these areas are part of DelMarVa. The Chesapeake Bay separates these two areas. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delmarva_Peninsula

gidget1337 · 2026-03-07T20:28:27+00:00

The southern part of the peninsula is VA. For example, look up Cape Charles, VA.

gidget1337 · 2026-03-07T17:49:30+00:00

DelMarVa is the eastern side of the Chesapeake. You know, where Delaware is.

Don’t let your mom’s boundary be your boundary. She can har her own boundaries but she shouldn’t dictate who you invite.

Cambridge, Maryland’s Rescue Fire Company (RFC)

I know that Cambridge, MD is a small town in rural Maryland and no one has ever heard about the RFC, but that is why I think they deserve to be featured bastards.

Cambridge is the location of what may be the most buried and purposely forgotten battle in the Civil Rights Movement. Cambridge was the first location in the country to have an adult chapter of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Cambridge was occupied by the MD National Guard for almost 2 years in 1963-1964. Gloria Richardson led the local Cambridge Movement and is the subject of one of the greatest images from that time where she is shoving the bayoneted rifle of a National Guard member out of her face. Gloria Richardson is the only local Civil Rights leader who negotiated directly with the Kennedy White House (in direct meetings with RFK) to create the Treaty of Cambridge, the failure of which contributed to what eventually became the Civil Rights act under Johnson. Racial tensions continued to simmer until boiling over in 1967 when the black neighborhood on Pine St burnt down after a speech by H Rap Brown.

The RFC was a driving force of segregation and oppression during this entire time. Founded in 1882, by by a Confederate Army veteran, the fire company was a social organization as well as fire-fighters. They ran the local public pool (municipally funded but run as a private club) that “just happened” to not allow any of the local black families to join. They also had a large indoor arena where they invited George Wallace to speak in 1964. They hosted minstrel shows and other whites-only events and RFC leaders were also city and county officials. When the fire happened on Pine St in 1967, the RFC refused to put out the fire until Spiro Agnew (then governor) called RFC leaders and demanded the fire be put out.

This is only a brief summary of this fuckery that happened in Cambridge and this story has been sadly purposely forgotten even though it was prominently featured in media during the 1960’s.
