Seattleite. Cyclist. Highly caffeinated.
While I wouldn’t say that’s right, I also wouldn’t come right out and call it wrong either. This very much engages with the “Selfish Gene”, an heuristic model of thinking about evolution from the perspective of the gene itself instead of populations.
As an added amusement, the book “The Selfish Gene” came out in 1976, and is the source of the word “meme,” used somewhat differently than it is now, naturally.
Haha, I’ve been using old.lemmy.world for so long I’d forgotten I even had the Space Needle profile on my account. Was truly puzzled for a minute.
“How do they know I’m in Seattle? Oh, yeah.”
You can predict the outcome of this court’s decisions with two questions:
A: Will it cause chaos?
B: Is it cruel?
They seem to feel it’s bonus points if the answer to both is yes.
Thanks! You can’t hear it, but I squee like a little kid in my head every time someone says they like it.
Because that’s what this bike is designed for as a low-trail bike. It’s biased to handle weight on the front. Even fully loaded with two panniers it handles completely neutral. It’s almost unnerving how normal it feels. More stability climbing passes too is also nice bonus.
I’ve toured with both this and a more standard four pannier setup and this one is far better, IMO.
Haha no. Just a rider with very particular tastes.
A Crust Ramanceür. Built it out as my commuter/touring bike.
Bike’s a bit dirty, but that’s inevitable when you commute in our rainy winters.
This really rises to one of 2023’s oddest stories. I mean, I don’t even have a square for “Indian-Canadian Cold War” on my 2023 bingo card.

Not after midnight please! We all know how that turns out.
Corporate “wellness” speech for a concert, sounds like.
See 1974’s Phase IV for another take on ants as the story’s antagonist. It’s notable for being graphic designer Saul Bass’s only directing credit, as well as that general 1970s slow-paced creepiness that is as much atmosphere as story.
It’s pronounced “xitter.”
