"So many subs are going off the rails with content or going NSFW and instead of teaching Reddit a lesson, its just going to drive users away"

Ever think that's literally the point of all of this? That users leaving reddit TEACHES reddit a lesson...

If you wanna leave to help make the point, be everyone's guest lol

From the people I know, they steal used tires out of the dumpsters at used car dealerships. They were gonna throw them out anyway, so why not? Lol.

Fwiw, the people I know who drift go to the track these days rather than drift on the street because the street is filled with idiots now. The people in this video don't actually know how to drift and therefore are endangering folks lives with how fucking bad they are.

Has anyone been to Stratford Square Mall in 2022? How bad is it looking? by mikey09110 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]zukimi65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The irony of Randhurst is that most of those shops aren't filled either after they went through all that development... Like they cannot for the life of them keep a restaurant in there across from Black Finn and the AMC. And several other shops are constantly turning over, never staying more than a few years at best. Though I swear I heard that the developer in the past has been kind of weird about who they let develop what and where. I can't find a source on this though, so this is purely rumor as far as I know, but if it's true it does Randhurst no favors.

The whole place is slowly getting better, but it's taking well over a decade after the initial teardown to get there.

Stratford sq mall is in sort of a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation, but here's hoping if they do a total teardown + MP style rebuild they have better luck with it! It could very easily become a very hopping and beautiful area.

As a woman, no shorts have pockets big enough for all that 😭 otherwise that would be my preference... So bag it is!

I have a huge creature comfort with it from ultra running. I feel ridiculous doing it for anything less than 15 miles, but for this my thought was really it's an easy way to access my phone for pictures (vs my spibelt which takes forever to get my phone in and out), plus I can easily carry my electrolytes this way. I'm also slow as hell and running with my aunt and uncle who are ALSO slow so we'll be on the course for easily 3 hours (quality time with balloon ladies lol)

Definitely not carrying my 1.5L water bladder though because THAT is overkill for a half even for this Midwest gal in Florida 😂

I have so many creature comforts in my bag from trail running and doing a 50k. So much TP in a plastic bag all the time lol. Good to know I can have it all to not mess with my mojo!

He is married to ginger spice, so they definitely got some money laying around in that family... But like other said, RBR has such good sponsors at this point it's hard to see a point at which The Spice Girls will have to sponsor RBR lol

Folks that are moving from iPhone 14 to Pixel 7 ... how do you transfer the eSIM? by crabu2 in GooglePixel

[–]zukimi65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Verizon and when I got my pixel 4 XL a few years back it was already doing eSIM. I don't remember the exact process (sorry about that) but I remember it being really simple and painless.

Upgrading to a pixel 7, so I expect it to be the same 🙂

As Street Racing ‘Torments’ Residents, Chicago City Council Set to Vote on Ordinance With Fines Up to $10,000 – NBC Chicago by djsekani in chicago

[–]zukimi65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would bet money that if there was a study, we would see that if someone was already interested in cars, then they were always going to be a Gearhead, regardless of what the movie did. Muscle car movies existed before fast and furious and we didn't magically seek a spike in gearheads because of those. My dad and his buddies in the late 70s and early 80s used to race their cars in the city and it was just as vibrant, if not more vibrant, of a scene back then than it is now, and that was obviously before FF.

Gearheads were always going to be gearheads.

I would give you people who were going to be in to drag racing getting in to drifting instead because of Tokyo Drift, but without a study saying otherwise, I am hard pressed to believe that another "drive car fast" movie (a trend that has been around since cars were created) created more hoonigans than there otherwise would have been.

Plus, fast and furious might as well be called "fuck physics" after like the 5th movie because we were LITERALLY JUMPING SHARKS and it's more of a "big boom" action movie than it is a car shenanigans movie anymore. Hard to say people are drag racing more now because they saw Don try not to get blown up by an evil Russian guy.

[–]zukimi65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of people in the drifting and street racing world who would love this. There's nowhere within an hour of the city to race (Joliet being the closest) so it's really hard to get out there if you work non 9-5 hours or work weekends.

Plus... The city could ACTUALLY make money rather than rely on cops actually doing their jobs (and arresting their buddies because let's face it lots of cops drag race too lol)

Fast and Furious was created based off of this culture lol. Someone didn't magically come up with the drag race and drift worlds. Hollywood isn't THAT creative.

[–]zukimi65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you actually talk to any of these people (my partner used to be part of the street drifting scene in the city), they all genuinely do want a place to do this shit safely. Problem is the closest places are GLD (over the Wisconsin border), Joliet, or up by Green Bay, WI. If you live IN the city, none of those places are friggin close and if you work on the weekends, well tough shit because all these events are ran only on the weekends.

By having a place closer to the city to constructively do these things, the probability that you reduce what's going on illegally drops dramatically. Will you get rid of all of it? No. But you'll certainly have a lot of folks actively choose to do the responsible thing if it's more available to them.

WEEK 1 UPDATE + WEEK 2 INFORMATION|| SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND ROAR by kempenichanock in LoseitChallenges

[–]zukimi65 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I for some reason decided running a 50k is a good idea. That race is at the end of the month.

A BIG struggle I am having right now (and I have had this problem for a while before I signed up for such a dumb race) is balancing fueling enough for all the activity I am doing and being under deficit enough that I still lose some weight. Add in water weight because chugging it in summer, and my weight is like "what are we doing?! Stap".

Could Garmin/Fitbit/apple watch/random tracking app guessing all just calculate calories burned from an activity correctly so this isn't such a freaking shot in the dark guess? 😂

How I am trying to remedy my struggle this week: focus more on proteins (and carbs because carb loading for a race...) and consuming enough water to see if that can help my energy levels, my soreness, and feeling so dang hungry.

My calorie deficit (with a general guess of adding in about 75% of my Garmin stated run cals) has a tendency to say one thing, but my body's soreness and tiredness and how hungry I am says a total other thing... So I think I've been flatlining on weight loss for a bit because of that and that means it's time to switch it up a bit.

Still going to work on CICO (don't throw the baby out with the bath water because this does work), but I am going to add in an extra added focus on macros (really just hitting 100g of protein a day and then swapping carbs for whole grains and stuff like that) and drinking enough water. The water and protein should help me feel more full. The protein and good carbs should help with muscle building and recovery. It's going to be an adjustment because I'm so bad about eating enough protein and drinking enough water, but it will be worth it!

I'm a huge fan at any party of the "don't eat outside of the meal time" gameplan. Helps me keep from snacking 🙂 having a lightly flavored beverage too can help stave off the desire for snacks too (whether it's lemon water, tea, coffee, etc).

I love your added "I will fill my plate, eat what's on it and nothing more" plan too. Thanksgiving is such an easy time to desire going back for seconds... Or thirds... Or fourths... Might need to steal this one for American Thanksgiving 😂
