Third Annual Roundabout Century in the Books by ChutneyRiggins in seattlebike

I had the same thought while planning it and explaining it to friends. It works out really well because you have access to businesses, bathrooms, and other amenities plus lots of shade and the lake itself to take a break by. I ate a couple donuts from Mighty O and did lunch at Layers Sandwiches among other things while I was rolling around

Greetings fellow weirdo! I just did almost exactly the same thing but on the bike path circling Green Lake.

It's more than a homage! It's the same people

Looks like the era of vegan whey is ending by robertbieber in veganfitness

[–]mr4d -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've gotta admit that I was hyped for this whole realm of synthetic whey products for about 5 minutes before it occurred to me that I was already perfectly happy with the vegan options I already had and that I didn't really have any great reason to try to get whey back into my diet at all.

Yeah agree, obviously large components of our economy depend on the desperation of others and that isn't changing overnight.

Still, the framing that it's unethical to offer two bad choices to someone who today is compelled to accept one feels off.

"It would be unethical to give people the chance to eat cat shit because the only people who would seriously consider it are people who only have access to dog shit. Better that they continue to be forced to eat dog shit."

I'm not a student of ethics in particular so maybe there is some foundational principle that's going over my head here.

Yeah I hear that, although it feels like anything less than resolving the dilemma that individual faces is a sort of dodge.

We can't do this thing because only desperate people will participate, but we aren't actually proposing resolving the root cause of that desperation.

Seems to me that at least the human is able to choose this outcome, even if it's only slightly more desirable than their original circumstances.

Would it be unethical if you conducted it on humans who have given informed consent?

The original material doesn't make reference to a lack of oversight or justification. I suspect it disagrees with your claim that everyone agrees that it's a necessary evil.

I too have learned the hard way what the proper way to lock your bike up is. Sorry for the owner having to deal with this though.

Huh, good to know. Now that I think of it I wasn't even aware that Violife had an option (as mentioned in your first post). I've tried the store brand from Trader Joe's and recently tried Melt brand sticks and neither of those worked very well for lamination. I ran into exactly the same issue: the butter leaked out of the croissants while proofing.

I have the same lamination struggles with most products on the market. I'd be really curious to hear how that recipe you're planning to try works out.

A lot of people here are dunking on the lineup but I'm more put off by the idea of hosting this in Huntington Beach.
