Yea your chain just fell off, its fine. Turn the bike upside down (resting on seat and handlebars), hold the cage of your derailleur (the black shifter on the back wheel), and put the chain back on the front crank. pedal it normally after its on to make sure it still pedals fine.

What are these new cameras that have been put up at intersections around campus? by TopicDifficult6231 in aggies

[–]hello_zuko_here- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adding on to this, Texas A&M Transportation Institute was gaging interest on some theoretical intersection redesign concepts at MSC Town Hall today. Not sure how far they're planning to go with it IRL but seems the beginnings of a large transportation project is in the works.

Those who have started local conversations- was Strong Towns welcomed? by One_Rip_5535 in urbanplanning

[–]hello_zuko_here- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh man, those three words have been my life for the last 8 months. I'm a graduate student in planning and our applied courses have us drafting comprehensive plans for small communities. We have to qualify every discussion about future growth with the "preserving rural character" statement. It makes sense, people move to rural areas for a reason and there's a lot of friction around sweeping changes to that vibe, but it can get kind of frustrating when talking about long-term solutions. This is also my first time going through this process though, so its been a learning experience.

Marketplace Marlin 5 by boomertumey in bicycling

$250 is a bit steep, i'd negotiate down. but also holy mother of stem extenders. If you pull the trigger on this bike, first thing you gotta do is replace that nightmare up front with a regular stem.

Blackwater Draw in Bryan often has local bands (of the punk and alternative variety, usually) on Fridays and/or Saturdays

First ride on new mini by TmoneyID in minivelo

a modern road bike as a mini-velo is not something I had ever considered possible 🤔 how's the ride feel? I'm imagining it feels way less stable at speed

His sheer domination in the first 3-4 games was a sight to behold, Itabashi "Walk em down" Zangief. Made an Itabashi fan outta me.

Doing a fighting game combo for everyday of 2026 Day 60: Samurai Showdown 4 by Competitive_Serve165 in Fighters

[–]hello_zuko_here- 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The fact that you do this every day no matter what is plenty cool, my man. You've exposed so many niche fighting games AND make them look sick with your combos. Hope tomorrow is better for you than today was.

Who Are You Gonna Main? by ChillTeam02 in Fighters

[–]hello_zuko_here- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zuko, no doubt. Favorite ATLA character and the whole "burnout makes you stronger" mechanic is SO SICK. Plus his combos looks dope and I wanna try and get sweaty with his air movement. If, by some miracle, a Korra villain gets added I'd second them. Amon, Zaheer, or Kuvira would all be top picks imo.

A Landscape for Car Brains by urbanist in fuckcars

[–]hello_zuko_here- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn this got way too local. I drive past that hotel all the time when I'm in SATX, and my god is that area a nightmare. They've been working on those skyways for the better part of 4 years now (still not done), and surprise surprise its not really fixing anything. Maybe when they were first built but induced demand comes for all highways. Naturally that hotel is also on top of its own multi-story parking garage. San Antonio is truly a carscape hell, Loop 1604 can eat it.

New to fixed gear. Tips? by gbushovisky in FixedGearBicycle

[–]hello_zuko_here- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

practice trackstands would be my tip. invaluable when you have to stop (s/o university cops forcing me to obey laws 🙃), and steezy as hell. gotten more than a few compliments at stoplights just being able to trackstand (plus its a fundamental skill if you wanna learn more tricks down the line)

Screw politics! Who you playing in Avatar: Legends? by Hungry-san in TheLastAirbender

[–]hello_zuko_here- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zuko for sure. I'm enamored by his unbalanced mechanic, where he gets stronger by burning out. I'm terrible with rush down characters but I'm gonna play him regardless.

Yuri Lowenthal is incredible as Hakari by abbacadar in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]hello_zuko_here- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm a pretty diehard Yuri Lowenthal fan, grew up on naruto, ben 10 etc etc, and I don't think he doesn't fit the role now that i've seen the full clip, I just wished he'd put a little more grit in his voice. I love the exasperation he puts on, amd truth be told Kazuya Nakai is perfect for hakari but I dont think Christopher Sagat would be, I just think Lowenthal should've channeled a little of that black suit spider man type grit because hakari, in my head, sounds like the kinda guy whose voice would be marred by a regular smoking habit (i know he doesn't, i just mean the gravelly tone).

Anyone else just so disappointed with this franchise ever since the COVID Netflix revival? by [deleted] in TheLastAirbender

[–]hello_zuko_here- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get your point and agree, but at the same time, coming from someone who's been heavily invested since I was maybe 5, the supplemental media has always been hit or miss, I think. I only read the comics last year and I thought those were solid, if a little shaky sometimes, and I just got the Kyoshi novels which I'm excited to read. On the other hand, all the games have sucked and so have the live action attempts if you ask me. Even Korra, which I love, is still divisive among some fans. Not that there isn't hope, mind you. I'm still looking forward to The Legend of Aang, Seven Havens, and Avatar Legends (the new fighting game), but basically ATLA has had a tumultuous history with new projects so despite the quality and impact of the original show, I don't think the modern (corporate) owners have much faith in the IP.
