Jerseys and gilets from Spexcel

Bibs from YKYWBIKE

Ride Now TPU tubes are bomb proof

Radar Tail Light and heart rate monitor from Magene (although I haven’t tried the Garmin ones)

OG-Evkin Drop Bars

Things I wouldn’t recommend

Glasses from Kapvoe (shit quality and risky in a crash)

OG-Evkin seat post (quality is good, but the way the seat attaches is prone to seize and difficult to adjust)

Not surprised that NYC is overcorrecting once again. I work in the industry and out of 2500 apartments we estimate around 20 are tenants involved in short term rentals. The last two we caught were even people that rent multiple rent-stabilized apartments and run their own business on Airbnb. This not only puts a pressure on unit supply in general but also specifically removes affordable housing opportunities for those in need.

At least with the buildings I’m involved in, the bigger issue is the state removing any ability to raise rents on vacant rent-stabilized units. We have at least 60 units sitting vacant indefinitely because it would take over 5 years to recover the cost of fixing up the unit and getting it rented. This rule was meant to stop shitty landlords drom taking advantage of tenants but if their focus was on tenant protection laws instead of completely removing all incentives to invest capital in old units they wouldn’t have swapped one issue for another.

I’m sure there are legitimate uses for Airbnb that have now been completely eliminated and we’ll see unintended consequences down the line.

Mazel tov!

It’s Switzerland. While I don’t know the answer to your question, having grown up there and in the states, I wanted to compare the cereal industries and how they tried to promote a healthier lifestyle. Then this happened: (from Wikipedia)

An early proponent of the germ theory of disease, Kellogg was well ahead of his time in relating intestinal flora and the presence of bacteria in the intestines to health and disease. The sanitarium approached treatment in a holistic manner, actively promoting vegetarianism, nutrition, the use of enemas to clear “intestinal flora”, exercise, sun-bathing, and hydrotherapy, as well as the abstention from smoking tobacco, drinking alcoholic beverages, and sexual activity. Kellogg dedicated the last 30 years of his life to promoting eugenics and segregation.

So they made the immigration minister the housing minister and now he wants to cut immigration? When all you have is a hammer…

What theme is that? Looks just like sync for lemmy

The scary part is how many people just don’t seem to care. Hey, did you know you can get cheap bullshit on Temu? The idea that you’ll one day have to compete for your job with someone with an implant is scary, not for them because they signed up at betterhelp.com to have a professional talk them off a ledge once a week. Hopefully they won’t be much of a threat because of all the single people in their area. Also, boner pills anyone?

Much appreciated

Those are all perfectly cromulent words

They don’t know about pocket casts, we must tell them!

Wait people actually listen to white noise that’s occasionally pierced by better help ads?

Here’s my vague understanding of why this happens with melatonin; if someone can correct me I’ll have learned something.

Taking supplements your body naturally produces, like melatonin, creatine, and some weight loss products in large doses makes your body turn off its own production. You’re also training your body to process and live with more than it needs, and considering it always wants to reach homeostasis, you end up needing more of it to have the same effect (like many drugs).

Back in the 90’s a lot of people on diet pills ended up gaining a lot of weight back once they stopped taking the pill because their bodies took a long time to produce the same chemicals naturally, having essentially been overdosed for a while.

Yes but it’s risky. The poop on the 4th day may make you have to retile your bathroom.

That and movies just suck nowadays. This is partially old man yelling at cloud stuff but also true since the death of DVD’s means studios won’t take risks anymore since they can’t recoup funds after a poor box office.

All Glory!

For anyone that needs to hear this. You can’t be reasonable with unreasonable people. Don’t judge yourself by their standards. Do the right thing and focus what’s under your control.

The best kind of murder-insult!

What’s the best shaving cream that doesn’t involve a cup and brush for those lazy days where I need to cut down on shaving time?

This got me thinking about how different types of street performers evolve in different cultures around the world. In NYC it’s apparently psychopaths in Elmo costumes looking to fucking fight you.
