It's sad how so many people never invest into making their bike comfortable beyond maybe a cushy saddle* and end up thinking "bike riding is supposed to be uncomfortable." #cycling #bicycle #biketooter #mastobikes
*Most cushy saddles that people go for (usually based on the saddles being cheap) aren't shaped or padded the right way and end up causing extreme discomfort in a fairly short while. :/

"Carry-on" is pronounced like "carrion". 🤔

Local business ads on television and radio always have a certain feel to them. 🤔

My wife: You just recycle the same jokes every day.
Me: I like to be environmentally friendly! :P
-
Going shopping when you don't have anything in particular in mind to buy doesn't seem constructive. 🤔
-
Thinking about getting aftermarket suspension to reduce the body roll of our #Toyota #RAV4. The stock amount of body roll leaves me feeling anywhere from physically uneasy to outright sick. :(

Constantly buying things because you're hoping to fill the void in your heart by doing so doesn't really work. :/
-
When you think about it, a casino is just an arcade where you can convert their tokens back into cash. 🤔
Pachinko parlors have figured out the easiest way around it: the "prizes" you can trade balls for can be "sold" at nearby shop fronts for cash. Said "prizes" are recirculated because the parlor essentially runs those adjacent shops.

Cars today are too fancy. :/
-
It's sad how normalized buying a new product when the old one simply needs to be repaired has become. Manufacturers love this and even design for it since it means more profit, but it's so wasteful!
-
Whether or not disc brakes are "better" than rim brakes, disc brakes definitely require less skill to use effectively in more conditions.

It's probably a good thing that mainstream media content is so obnoxious and overbearing, since it overstimulates me and prevents me from getting hooked like how neurotypicals are. 🙃
-
The former is nice because I know the group can continue on without me and I don't have to feel bad about leaving.
-
One of my favorite times is the mental decompression right after I'm left alone, either because I walk away from the group or because the group walks away from me.

The cold season here feels like January for four months. :/ #Seattle

Feels kind of like dancing.
-
I really enjoy cooking in a #wok. :)
-
I always thought Black Friday was on the day after Thanksgiving, not a week before that day. :/
-
I miss 50+°F weather. :( #Seattle

I know street parking (parallel, angle, etc.) is a necessity in many places, but the lines of parked cars are eyesores. :(
