  • As many others have said, you don’t. That may be part of the devisive-ness experienced here currently, but when one side is stating that the military should be used on dissenters, and the other side needs slaughtered, and they’re talking about deporting detractors currently in govt, it’s addition by subtraction. Should my side win, I don’t expect any kind of persecution of people I don’t agree with. Should the other side win, they are functionally demanding it.

    “You won’t have to vote anymore” is an insane statement from a democratic candidate. “We’ll fix it so good, you won’t have to vote”. And people are on the fence. It’s disgusting. Choose a fucking side and vote it.



  • I’m on it, but only for the novelty currently. Sports haven’t really taken off here yet, and I crave some interaction while watching. Instead of going back to Reddit, I’ll shit post there and once it develops here or a better alternative comes up, I’ll jump ship. Not a Twitter format fan.





  • Has been an issue for a while. The sub of ~30k I was a mod in, I was picked up because I was reporting bot posts and posting the OG posts. I was modded by one the other mod (the sub owner was non-existent really) so instead of me being the middle man, I would just respond with the OG post so there was a “trail” and then remove the post.

    I did other little things like discussion threads for the weekly event, but I just hated seeing the bots. It died down after a few months, so they have to be watching the metrics on the subs to know where it’s allowed and where it isn’t.



  • This is the stupid part. I left and didn’t go back. I still end up there searching the odd problem online, but I don’t necessarily need it. The one sub I modded, when I was last checking, has had quite a bit of spam and self-promotion “watch my new YouTube video” shit going on. I wasn’t the only one doing anything on the team, as it was like 30k+ members, but it was alow traffic sub. But they don’t do the weekly discussion threads, the repost bots were rampant.

    All to make more money. I don’t know why people stayed. All that huffing and puffing, just to cower and fold.


  • You don’t necessarily need to keep the time to do it. You could just give yourself rest periods and push periods, but it’d probably be hard to keep the motivation without seeing number go up lol, at least to me. If all you get is total distance at the end, then I’d definitely just do the RPM thing. Just set a goal RPM and a rest RPM and bounce between the two as you are able to push total distance


  • When I use mine, I don’t do training like that. I end up playing Xbox or watching TV or 2-3 hours while I just pedal.

    However, when I was doing that, the bike had preset “routes” you could do where the resistance changed on it’s own, and I’d just try to keep the same pace up for the 30min-1hr I was doing. It could also do it across distances. When I wasn’t doing the preset courses, I was just setting the resistance to what felt decent, and then keeping up my RPM (usually ~100). If I was really feeling myself, I’d up the resistance a bit. If it was a bad day, I’d drop it down. The total distance at the end would change based on the resistance I used, so I could at least always tell what days were “better” and which weren’t. The motivation was just wanting to see if I could beat my previous distance.



  • Depends. Had a client pull a knife on me once, and another dragged me around the facility for an hour while he tried to break down a door to “kill” another client because he had stolen the change from a $5 Taco Bell gift card.

    The other incident being was a coworker harboring one of the fugitive kids at her house with her like…6 children while her husband was away in Nebraska for work. Randomly saw her in family court a year later while I was working another job, hopefully while her husband fights her for custody of the kids…
