To the snotty self-entitled bike riders 5.25.26.

Image
From reddit: Why is elitism so prevalent in the cycling community? I have a lot of hobbies, and I must say that the most pretentious group of people I deal with who share my interests are cyclists. (Maybe photographers are a close second) I was 3/4 of the way through a 60 mile ride yesterday and bumped into 2 cyclists. I am on a temporary cheap bike I bought just to use on this trip I am on. Still a very decent bike specialized sirrus elite. I am loving riding it so far. The guys were on nice entry level carbon bikes. Within 30 seconds of chatting with them they took out the time to trash my bike. Saying it was heavy, and didn't know how I could have ridden it so far. I bit my tounge because my real bike is more expensive then theirs, and they were turning around after 5 miles. This has been a consistent thing that has always turned me off from associating with cyclists. My first real road bike purchase years ago was a Specialized Allez, that I saved up for all summer and was my pr...

How much evil shit can the BPD do to me before the community stands up

Some POS held the door open for a patrol cop who thanked the POS. The POS said, you're very welcome. WTF?! They burn my genitals with acid, keep me up all GD night, make up lies about me .... let their retired cop beat his wife to near death & force her to move out of California... and the door is held open for them. ***** Some people respect, or at least support, officers accused of corruption due to a strong preference for "law and order," the belief that officers maintain safety in dangerous areas, and a desire to trust authority figures. This support can persist because of political messaging, a belief that corruption reports are exaggerated by media, or personal experiences where police provided necessary security.  Key factors driving this perspective include: Prioritizing Order Over Due Process: Many individuals prioritize the immediate enforcement of laws and the restoration of order, viewing strict policing as essential to safety, even if it involves miscondu...

Cliff Swallows

Image
The annual return of cliff swallows to Mission San Juan Capistrano, traditionally celebrated on St. Joseph's Day (March 19), marks the birds' return from Argentina to nest. While urban development reduced their numbers in the 1990s, the birds still return to the area annually.  Migration Pattern: Swallows arrive in mid-March and depart around October 23 (Day of San Juan) for a 6,000-mile journey south. The Mission Connection: Legend says Father St. John O'Sullivan invited them to the Mission in the early 20th century after a shopkeeper destroyed their nests. Today's Return: Efforts to encourage their return, including using bird call recordings and installing artificial nesting, have resulted in some nesting in the Mission's East Corridor. Celebration: The city celebrates with the annual Swallows Day Parade and mercado.  The birds are known for building gourd-shaped mud nests under the eaves of the old stone church.  I saw them flying low along the ocean in San Juan...

It’s not just "being sensitive"; there are biological and psychological reasons why a whistle in your ear can feel like a physical and personal violation.  What you are describing—physical pain from a common sound combined with an intense emotional reaction—is a recognized phenomenon often linked to specific sound-sensitivity conditions.

Another bullshit remark; calling me Sweetheart

Image
Here's what it means, because never have so many people called me sweetheart like this year. Sweetheart aka  Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a chronic, often asymptomatic disorder of the heart muscle in diabetics (type 1 or 2) that causes structural damage and functional impairment, leading to heart failure independently of coronary disease or hypertension. It presents as early diastolic dysfunction (stiffness) progressing to systolic failure. Systolic failure: Systolic heart failure, or  heart failure with reduced ejection fraction  (HFrEF),  occurs when the left ventricle becomes weak or enlarged and cannot contract properly to pump sufficient blood to the body This condition leads to fluid buildup in the lungs and body, causing fatigue, swelling, and breathing difficulties.
