I bought a simple spin bike thirdhand. Guy who owned it before me got it from a gym. You twist a knob and it increases pressure on a leather brake. Its built like a tank.

Its great and like you say, if I wanted I could just look up spin videos on youtube for free.

Why would I bother with a Peloton?

I havent seen the Huffington Post website in years. Clicked on this to see the video. About 20 seconds of the video, 30 seconds of ads, another 20 second clip. More ads.

At least the article isnt paywalled. Ill give them that.

 

So every time we get bread it comes in a stretchy bag. However, once we pull it out of the freezer later the bag is noticeably more crinkly and brittle. Anyone know why this is? I can't seem to find an answer to this phenomenon anywhere.

Industrial sabotage is whats needed at this point imo.

The vast majority of invasives take a foothold in already disturbed land. Natural ecosystems tend to be more resistant.

We have this in Canada too. I see them littered all over the place. Its not terribly effective.

I own an EV. Whats to 'crawl back to'? The constant maintenance costs? The expensive fuel? The shittier driving experience? The worse noise and vibration?

Nah, bruh. Im good. I will never go back to ICE.

I worked at a fruit processing plant. We found maggots in the blueberries. Line got shut down for obvious reasons.

Owner of the company came in and said 'pack them anyway'. We knowingly sent out blueberries with maggots in them.

Needless to say that company sucks and people hate working there.
