Literally. I bike and drive and wouldn’t blame the cyclist at all, but I would hardly be surprised if I was hit while cycling at night in dark colors with even one headphone in.

Obviously, I would love to live in a utopia where cyclist can travel just as carefree as most car drivers, But we’re on two wheels and completely unprotected, so there is a certain level of additional caution that goes into traveling by bike. I just wish more people, cyclist and driver alike, used their common sense.

Speedy recovery to the victim.

I’m obnoxious and usually just blast it out loud through my phone like I would if I were driving - I would have headphones in while driving either, so definitely not cycling. Maybe bone-conductors but even then I wouldn’t want magic drowning out any part of my awareness.

New refugee from Reddit - is there a better community for discussing politics without heavy handed mods stepping in?

As a butch lesbian who considers my (left) politics a core part of my gay identity, how the heck is a Trumper the “absolute archetype?”

Are you just using stereotypes about how a certain kind of lesbian dresses? Because I guarantee a large subset of non-feminine women act/dress just like her without it having anything to do with sexuality.

Anti-fascist and anti-capitalist action are huge parts of being butch; it’s an OG blue collar gay identity. Please don’t equate nasty Trumpers with us. She can have a wife but the queer community sure don’t claim her.
