I’ve definitely seen a share of those too. More or less my point wasn’t that they’re always going to lean slow, but that they’re not often coded for the speed limits posted.

That tracks, I drive like I’m 85 so I’d just hop in line
Hey Gladys, let me hit your O2

Yeah my home town has a street slated for 25 but if you roll 22 you save gas and coast up as they change and people race to the next one

Drive slower and you only get a couple, in my experience
But yeah, staying on the good side of the road gods is always in your favor.

That’s often because they either dual stream w TikTok or post things to both and saying murder or suicide is a ban

I’ve had people tag me specifically for that, it’s one of the most insane moves. I get what you mean and you’re exactly correct on why you don’t do it.

So many are basically malpractice that it’s safer to say the whole bunch is spoiled atp

I’ve seen that behavior everywhere, unfortunately. Back in the Reddit days I’d ask a question and get downvoted to oblivion for not knowing something that’s apparently well-known or for not being able to recognize famous people because of face blindness

Finally. The days of corn have returned.

Let’s not build one for $1B and put it toward actual infrastructure, covering states in the order they joined the union.
- Comment on where? 2 weeks ago:
What the fuck? How have I not heard of a place like that? I think I’ll blindly fail for hours to find a way to join, and end up on the most basic sounding and highly toxic one and not have it in me to make more accounts.

He was a major rightwing influencer and ‘debate bro’ show host who would debate college kids instead of anyone with experience who was fed talking points and being groomed to hold offfice - that’s the only reason anyone knew who he was.

Didn’t John Oliver do a bit with Reddy at one point?

They should’ve brought Neelix for that, obviously.

Well of course there’s graphic French, it’s written right there.

That phrase is largely used by assholes trying to make their rude commentary come off as honesty. I haven’t ever heard someone say that in good faith instead of trying to avoid angry backlash for something said.
Telling the truth, while sometimes harsh, is vital in a good communicative friendship where challenging our peers helps them to grow and leads to closer connections in the long term.
Considering the other person goes deeper than ‘does the truth hurt their feefees and should I lie about it’ but yes, there’s often a kind and unkind way to share hard information with someone.
TL;DR Context is huge for when to apply it, though largely honesty is the way to go and someone claiming they’re ‘telling it like it is’ is just a way to twist out of responsibility for their lack of tact or empathy

Same way a snowball is a ‘ball of ice’ if you don’t bother to note the type of ice.

If we didn’t see the guy throw a sandwich they would have called it assault with a projectile weapon. Where did you hear there was rock(s) in it?

And worse allegations I read about roughly a year or so ago. I’m ignoring the calendar saying mar ‘26, that’s a lie.

Instant visible progress, obstacles but not major ones (usually), engagement to move, a way to burn energy, distraction from something bothersome…
