I've done this a bunch of times when camping.
Good, crisp apples are the best. A carbonated honeycrisp apple is amazing!!!
This is great advice for signing up for streaming services, and very, very bad advice for a gym membership.
They absolutely will send your delinquent gym membership account to collections and it will wind up on your credit report. It's part of their business plan.
You'd have to sign up with a false identity, which is technically fraud.
I expected nothing yet I'm still disappointed...
I was really hoping this would go into effect so I could sign up for a gym membership. I'll never sign up with a gym again...Their cancellation processes are offensive and predatory.
The "click-to-cancel" rule would force gyms to allow you to cancel your gym membership as easily as you signed up for it.
For some reason these businesses are against losing the free money they get for making it hard to cancel subscriptions.
It's been a law in Germany for three years now:
Any country where healthcare and higher education are considered human rights and not commodities will work for me.
I only post or reply on Lemmy.
I don't have a facebook, instagram, snapchat, or twitter account.
I deleted my two reddit accounts after RIF stopped working.
I do have accounts on a couple of car forums so I can ask questions about fixing my car, if that counts.
Sure. I agree with all of that. But I live in a suburban sprawl of a US city that is just dense enough to have lots of cars, but nowhere near dense enough to have decent public transportation...unless we as a society decided to bulldoze this entire vast suburban landscape and start over with density as a goal. It's hot here too. Nobody is riding their bike 12 miles to work in 95⁰ weather (35⁰ for our metric homies).
Maybe within the next few years the Netherlands will let me and my family in as refugees so I can bike everywhere on a 72⁰ summer day.
But I like where your head's at. Hopefully you're young and can make a difference.
To be fair, you have a 1 in 95 chance of dying in an automobile accident.
Based on modern safety standards for everything else, that's unacceptable.
If I offered you a job and said you have a 1 in 95 chance of dying from working this job, you would refuse. The most dangerous job in the USA is logging, with about a 1 in 1000 chance of dying. More lumberjacks die driving home than die working their extremely dangerous job.
Not only should we have self-driving flying taxis by now, but we should also at least have level 5 self-driving cars so people aren't constantly dying driving to get groceries or pick up their kids.
I'd really like to at least see humanity fully switch to clean energy in my lifetime but I'm losing hope.
I should already be able to take a self-driving flying taxi to work. I should already be able to vacation on the moon. We shouldn't be burning stuff to power all our modern tech.
I grew up on 80s/90s scifi. I hope humanity can get it's shit together and that the current anti-intellectualism phase we're in is just part of a larger cycle.
Calling anything about beauty a standard.
Obviously fake anything. Boobs. Lips. Butt.
Trying too hard in general. Just be you.
I get we're not perfect and we all have insecurities. Why are they called love handles? But people are just people. We're all human.
People who don't drink water make me unnaturally irritated. It's just so crazy. "I don't breathe air because don't really like the taste".
I know I sound like an asshole. It shouldn't matter to me what you do. It's your body and your life.
Still...c'mon, like what? It's water. It brings life. It's the original thirst quencher. It's what your body needs. Just drink it.
Some people function better when things are organized and orderly, some function better when things are disorganized and in disarray, some function the same either way.
It is what it is. An orderly, organized bedroom feels great to sleep in to me, and might not matter at all to someone else.
Whatever the case, anyone judging me because my bed is either made or not made can fuck right off.
