Most sources indicate that the term "jay driver" came before "jaywalker" there being numerous article headlines from 1905 through the next decade that include the term "Jay Driver." Peter Norton's book Fighting Traffic on 78 indicates that in 1922 use of the term "jay driver" was an attempt by George A. Davies to use the known meaning of "jay walker" and apply it to drivers of vehicles.
I think you missed my point. The joke is the idea that one asshole driver spoils the ability to drive for anyone else, shitting on the statement "Don’t ride like an asshole or you might get ebikes banned in your area". Replace with "Don’t drive like an asshole or you might get cars banned in your area" with the same logic. Would never happen, because fuck this system and our infrastructure strictly designed to benefit oil companies.
Whataboutism. Comparing the situation between Israel and Palestine to North Korea isn't smart. And you say what "we've" done to Palestinians, I haven't done anything to them, I didn't vote for any of that shit.
North Korea is such a let down for humanity, a sad disappointment. They'd be so much better off if they worked together with the world. I firmly believe the US military has a complete view of their imports/exports through spy satellites.
In accordance with my initial point that it's a racist law to keep it illegal, I'll use cannabis from now on. Reading the history of the usage of the term "marijuana/marihuana/mariguana".
It's funny how we try to regulate a plant, yet the term cannabis could be referring to industrial hemp or the dankest highest THC concentration cultivar possible.
Broadly, there are three main cultivar groups of cannabis that are cultivated today:
Cultivars primarily cultivated for their fibre, characterized by long stems and little branching.[21]
Cultivars grown for seed which can be eaten entirely raw or from which hemp oil is extracted.
Cultivars grown for medicinal or recreational purposes, characterized by extensive branching to maximize the number of flowers.[21]
A nominal if not legal distinction is often made between industrial hemp, with concentrations of psychoactive compounds far too low to be useful for that purpose, and marijuana.
Banning masks is authoritarian fascist shit, especially masks that protect you from spreading contagious illnesses. Ridiculous, one year we're all told we need to wear masks to protect one another, next year we're told that it's illegal? Fuck off government, fuck off.
Anyone who believes the statement "land of the free, home of the brave" or "for liberty and justice for all". You're blind to think that we don't have so many in the US who believe we have a free country, and a free market.
You just made clear that we don't have a system that represents the people. How exactly does it become legal now with the argument "we just reclassified it"? When does that happen? 2, 5, 10 years from now?
This is not a win, don't mistake it. They reclassified it and now it's going to be even hard to legalize because they'll use the excuse "we reclassified it already!". Full legalization is what we need, this doesn't actually change shit. Marijuana being illegal is one of the most racist laws we have.
Nah. There's no way the orange man would get more than 4 years. If he tried, we would see a nation wide shut down, the riots would be beyond anything we've ever seen in this country. The people with money know they wouldn't make more money trying that, so it won't happen. Biden is already helping them enough.
Another step closer to getting an orange criminal as president from 2025 to 2029. What an absurd joke. Don't make the majority feel like their voice isn't being heard for too long, it's never a good idea to do that.
One of the best decisions I made was deleting my Facebook. I really mean that, one of the best decisions in my entire life. Not getting sucked into the absolute bullshit fest that greedy shit fuckers like Mark Zuckerberg set up for humanity is extremely relieving. Don't compare yourself to other people, you be you, just try to be your best self, it's worth it. Don't let the billionaire leeches of society take everything from you, fuck Facebook.
Nah, we're not powerless, and we don't all have to collectively agree. We have so many technologies that have been developed over the past several decades that can help solve this problem. Change is constant, this kind of shit is just another bump in the road.
We don't have competition in the US, only cronyism. Protectionism for those who stole their positions high up decades ago. No more competition in the sad USA, losing to China.
We're in late stage capitalism. Getting rid of the gold standard was one of the biggest mistakes in US history.
