Honestly, I have never found anything but a majority of support and kindness when asking questions online.

Okay, what’s OSM?

Its definitely not true that science and religion have to contradict each other. Take Christianity—you can easily believe in scientific methods to discover the way the world works, while believing that ‘God’ is the Creator of those things.

As much as I hate EA and everything they stand for, their customer support has pulled through for me on more than one occasion. Props to them

There’s a rather simple explanation for this. Politics has become engrained into many parts of our culture, to the point where at times it’s indistinguishable from personality, or outlook. Something as simple as a disagreement about tax laws wouldn’t normally endanger a relationship. But something more life changing, and effects the every day, would—and that’s increasingly what politics are effecting and related too. When someone says ‘Trump Voter’ you don’t think “Person who voted for Trump and I know nothing else about them.”

You automatically assume many non political things including stuff all the way from whether they only practice missionary sex, to whether they only drive pickup trucks.

When someone says “I wouldn’t marry a trump voter” they aren’t necessarily saying they’d never marry someone of a different political affiliation, they’re saying that wouldn’t marry the stereotypical persona of a “Trump Voter.”

Much like when I say “Karen” I’m not just talking about anyone with the name Karen.

Yeah speaking of, is there a way to disable the pop-up on YouTube yet? I use Firefox and u block

Probably about the same as everyone else’s

Thanks for the reply, I understand now.

I haven’t really kept up with this, so this is a genuine question—why are people protesting in the US about something going on in another country? What is the goal?

If you live in America, there are certainly a lot of things to consider on this point; mainly whether cycling in your area is even safe—obviously the ideal solution would be to move to an area with safer cycling, but that’s not an option for everyone—and I’d much rather someone not cycle than die because their area has horrible roads for cycling and they didn’t think about that. Check the safety of your area, and consider moving to a safer area for cycling if necessary (Or if you’re in it for the long haul, consider pitching in the community and trying to lead it towards a safer cycling future)

Went to my first concert recently—I loved it, but immediately knew I should have bought a pair of these.

For anyone who doesn’t want a rice cooker but can’t find a good basic white rice recipe: Put rice and water in a pot (1 cup rice to 1.5 cup water. People will tell you 2 cups water, punch them, or ignore them, your choice.) Turn it on high until it boils, stirring lightly occasionally to stop it from sticking. As soon as it starts boiling (not simmering) cover it with a lid and turn on low. Keep covered until it’s done (just taste it to test if it’s done.)

P.S. You can add whatever seasonings you want if you find something good online or something. It’s not important to actually cooking the rice.
