China also has horrific human rights abuse and rampant organ farming/trafficking.

Fedora KDE Plasma has really been doing it for me. Like Windows, without all the nonsensical bullshit and Microsoft bloat.

Hey now, it can be both.

And once again you fall back on TikTok Doomer Accelerationist propaganda. As someone who FUCKING LIVES HERE, I can tell you, first hand, that yes, it's bad right now, but there's SO MUCH ROOM for it to get worse. In a TRULY authoritarian state, like you seem to believe we are in, they wouldn't ALLOW any form of protest like we've seen in recent weeks. They'd roll out the troops and start shooting, which hasn't happened, because the troops DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT.

Things ARE bad, yes, but they aren't NEARLY as bad as you think. Get off the internet and touch grass.

Then why are Republicans so scared to actually DO anything characteristic of a single-party state? Why do so many of them still distance themselves somewhat from what Trump is doing? Why can't they agree on a single fucking bill??? This kind of Doomerist Accelerationism talk will actually lead to that "No Elections" future you're so convinced of.

Get off the internet for a while, dude. You need to take a walk.

If this is real, that's progress. It takes a lot to change heavily entrenched views like that, especially when most of your social circles support them as well. Now, we can rant and rave until the cows come home about how he supported Trump AT ALL while married to someone who didn't, but that's not especially productive.

Then why are you complaining about bike lanes???

Found the pickup truck driver. How's your gas mileage lol?

Patriot Front or whatever. Yeah, they look just as, if not even more dorky.

Sorry, too busy licking boot leather and sucking Trump dick. Best we can do is more tax cuts for rich fucks who don't pay any taxes anyway.

 

Looks like he's regrowing a leg!

 

Can't wait for my ankle to heal up so I can take this beauty for a spin.

 

Original post HERE.

Hey all, just thought I'd post an update. Sad to say it, but insurance has written my bike off as a Total Loss. The front end is mangled just enough that their inspector said frame damage was basically guaranteed around the steering column. It's a bleeding tragedy, but my bike is off to the great Hog Meet in the Sky.

As for me, I'm handling it as best I can. Ankle is healing up, and my shoulder is almost back to normal. Yippee! I'll be buying a new bike sometime this week, a 2012 VStrom with some 30K miles on it, for $2500 from a friend. As much as I wish I could keep it, this is the end of the road for my SR400.

Finally, I'd again like to remind people to wear All The Gear, All The Time. Even with everything that's happened, I got off easy because my gear saved me. Wear the gear, even if it looks silly, because it'll help save your life.

 

Was cruising with my riding group in Virginia, when I took a curve too fast, too wide. Ended up in the hospital, with a broken ankle and badly bruised shoulder.

It could've been worse. FAR worse. Thankfully, I subscribe to ATGATT, and made it out with relatively minor injuries. If you, or anyone you know, thinks it's OK to skimp on riding gear, let this be the reminder you need to hear: it isn't, and WHEN you crash, not if, you will regret not wearing proper gear.

Stay safe on the roads, Lemmy riders.

 

It's been a wonderful first bike! I was surprised by the kickstart-only ignition, but it was actually quite easy once I got used to it, and probably doubles as an anti-theft measure lol. Riding around the DMV area has been a blast, I'm looking forward to many more roadtrips to come!
