As long as it includes burgers and fries, I’ll handle 5 guys

I was a Reddit refugee.
A year or so into Lemmy and I don’t want to have a Reddit account anymore. I go back and view “All” every once in awhile, but Lemmy and Loops give me all I need.
No other social media or content aggregators besides those.
Holy shit, Americans. What is happening to you?
Yuuuuuup! We basically lived the same life
Upvoted because I think this is a common perspective. My comment below is for anyone else out there who may feel the same way as you do.
Being a passenger may cause less anxiety, but if safety is your biggest concern, driving yourself is the safest option to get around currently (besides bus/train transport or walking).
Driving is all about strategy. I’ll be transparent and say that it is not a “safe” activity, but I’ll also say that riding in a car driven by someone else is likely less safe than educating yourself on good driving strategy and taking your safety (and the safety of your passengers) into your own hands.
Driving defensively and using good vehicular communication will put you as a driver above 9/10s of the other drivers out there. That 1/10th leftover could hit you as a driver or passenger, but as a passenger, you have no recourse when you see them coming.
Experienced this when I went to Barcelona a few years back. Lovely city, but stepping out into the street felt like stepping into a cigar bar.
I dig this — sometimes you just want to do a little “adventure”. I’ve never not ate for a week, but have done similar things.
Just wanted to ask about eating disorder because I’ve had friends who’ve done similar things and it always makes me sad.
I needed this explanation
Was this part of an eating disorder? A week of not eating for a person who can already cycle 12 miles seems unusual.
(Hope that’s not too sensitive to ask, feel free not to respond)
I appreciated the pic you posted, even if I’m not in the place to want to purchase adventures currently.
Nice work.
I love it here. I’d say 8/10 of my interactions on a platform like Reddit had someone toxic being an ass.
On Lemmy it’s the complete opposite: I comment more here because anyone who responds is just wanting to chat or share their life experience. Shitheads are few.
