Just a reminder that we don’t have to argue with people on the Internet when they’re wrong.

I hate drivers that creep up to crosswalks so much. It’s so easy for a driver to slip their foot from the brake (or clutch) and hit a pedestrian. Just stop. You can wait a few seconds.

How not to cover Trump's 2024 campaign

“Even if the press is not interviewing Trump or another politician — such as Florida Gov.

You're doing protest critique wrong. Here's how to do protest critique: do the ideal protest your damn self or shut the fuck up

@alexkgellis This is one of those baffling situations in which, because it's a blind curve, I do clearly take the lane. Yet many drivers pass me anyway, even though that means pulling fully into the opposite lane--and potentially into the path of on-coming traffic.

This is just disappointing. Men need to do better.
