@maxdubler I mean those things help but also the nice porch and lack of giant-arse ugly car-hole go a long way so IDK mebbe there's a *little* more to it than that, yanno?

[Liroku @liroku]

@marrowing yes but try to understand; we are absolutely mind-bogglingly stupid

[Liroku @liroku]

@maxdubler Eh I'm ambivalent about "the limit" -- I don't like doing more than like 55-60 when I'm in my truck (it's old). My wife's car is better but I still don't generally care to go above 65. The "Solomon Curve" has been disproven--driving slower is safer, period.

I avoid the left lane

[Liroku @liroku]

@jm0ses no idea how to fix it; we've created a whole culture of dehumanization, of complete disdain for the lives of the people with whom we share this planet

seriously I have no answers

there's evil and rage in us that can't be easily cured

[Liroku @liroku]

@jm0ses but it's still there

the Texan in me is shrieking horrible shit

"he's trespassing! f*ck him! he's lucky he didn't get **** in the head!"

it gets into your soul; we've done absolutely horrifying things to ourselves, to our humanity, to our mentality, here in the US

@News4SA This isn't awesome; it's %&*# ridiculous. That kid should have $7300 in his college fund, and the other kids shouldn't have "debt" because they need to eat lunch at school. WTactualF is wrong with this nation???

[Liroku @liroku]

@ElliotGeno @MattWallace1701 Eh, make the toll based on weight. Or a formula based on damage caused, including environmental damage. Either way, it's still a move in the right direction.

[Liroku @liroku]

@kirawontmiss mine weren't cancelled and my monthly payment has increased by almost $300

all of my loans were federal, need-based; was literally homeless for a chunk of my college experience

taught for 10+ years but left for tech, don't use my degree any more

[Liroku @liroku]

@janeperryism @TheArchitectJV @philippesibelly @Boenau Then support better bicycle infrastructure. In civilized nations, such trails are entirely separated from cars wherever possible. If we subsidized bicycle infrastructure the way we do car infrastructure, there'd be a lot less traffic, and you wouldn't see us on the roads as much.

[Liroku @liroku]

@janeperryism @Boenau Trust me, you would much rather I be on a bicycle. I generally do about 5-10 under the limit these days. You should support better bicycle infrastructure so you don't hafta deal with people like me.

[Liroku @liroku]

@markosmyth1975 @Boenau Offering them separate infrastructure--something better than a stripe painted in the gutter. If there was a safe path to the school for my kid to ride her bike, we'd take it every day. Until then, I'm driving her, and I'm doin' five under the limit the whole way.

[Liroku @liroku]

@News4SA Yes. Insanely stupid to see other states making millions in taxes, while we SPEND millions trying to arrest a bunch of potheads.

[Liroku @liroku]

@avocadobonsai @drvolts @Nerd4Cities You'll see a lot of these sorts of designs on college campuses--obv. not public and not commercial... but probably one of the reasons people think so fondly of their time in college...

[Liroku @liroku]

@dieworkwear oh god this is such a great film

[Liroku @liroku]

@dieworkwear This is all very good because I don't care for slim-fit clothing. But I live in Texas, so... it gets hot.

You've really turned me around on high-waisted pants.

Not sure where to shop, unfortunately. I'll have to do some exploration.

[Liroku @liroku]

@dieworkwear I really need these summaries.

No idea where to even start, but I wanna do better (mainly for my partner). I've been a "dark tone Hanes t-shirt and jeans/shorts" guy for so long, now that I have a decent paycheck and have started paying attention... realize I need to improve.

[Liroku @liroku]

@BriannaWu HI cost like 5x as much to develop as BG3

like, sure, they've gotta make it back somewhere--but a lot of folks would be a lot more willing to pay $120 (or more) for a game if it didn't fucking suck

[Liroku @liroku]

@BriannaWu wife and I literally bought two new PCs to play BG3

we'd happily have paid another $100 (each) for the cute goodbye party they added a little while back

people will pay for quality

however, we both sincerely regret paying $60 for Halo Infinite; never even finished the game
