I like to imagine this guy in the one room in his house where he won’t wake anyone up sitting on the only available floorspace recording this lovely little bit of mashup. Makes me happy.

thats basically what I was doing at the gym, but the bikes with present modes don’t have enough adjustability to fit me very well and my back ends up hurting afterwards. So I need to switch to using one of the dumb bikes with all the adjustments but no computer like what you see in a spin class.

That and my kids wouldn’t stand for hours of exercise, I get like 30 minutes. I was just going indefinitely and keeping my rpm around 100, but I’m trying to mix it up

So what’s so special about the Kia challenge?

I get that, and I’m kinda trying to see how to best use my limited time in the mornings for workouts. I can’t lift weights anymore due to joint issues, so I’m trying to keep the sexy legs I earned!

This guy diy’s

I get this is some kind of pedo joke but… Help?

People smell bullshit, so ask genuine questions. If you have an agenda it wont work.

Ask about what kind of role he sees for government, and ask about situations you find troubling and what he things the solution is.

Ask about specific people you may know who are too underprivileged, young, old, infirm to be self sufficient and bootstrap themselves.

Generally give real thought to your opinions and ask him about his. You really can’t change people by wanting to do it, you have to want to understand them first and then enter into dialogue.

Yes. Easy patch.

I mean, public transport is a fucking ton of money to start up, and anywhere outside an urban center it is not just a loss but almost a total loss due to distances.

I remember being in a meeting in grad school to discuss the school bus system as part of the student review of finances. We had a bus route that went to another town a good distance away, and it was nearly always empty or with like 2 people on it, so they basically said once the grant money is gone we will shut down this route. We can’t afford to put good money into something expensive and isn’t getting used.

I realize there is a lot about car culture feeding that, but it remains a massive obstacle. Switching from existing structures like parking etc to public transport? How? How fast? What do we do with that space? Who pays for it? I’m frustrated by the system but we can’t just start from a blank slate, we have to work with it.

What kind of healthcare you working in with the kind of commute? I’m good at my job nursing but I can’t imagine that’s someething people get flown in for.
