Ridiculous, but it’s also like fast food commercials. If you think the meal you’re getting from Burger King will look anything like the commercial you saw, you might just also believe these AI Uber Eats menu photos.

This is genuinely exciting. I hope and expect it to be amazing. IO Hitman games are incredible.

It is super easy to say Bernie is useless and then offer zero solutions yourself. I genuinely ask- who’s out there doing it better? What should he and others be doing instead? The left needs constructive organizing, not negative take downs with no counter points or real world solutions as alternatives.

This reply is exactly my point. And…? So he’s not sufficiently left and/or effective enough for you. What is the solution? It’s easy to dump on others, and a hell of a lot harder to actually produce answers. I’ll also add that there’s a lot on the left who propose pie in the sky answers that resemble little in the way of constructive, real world, “how does this get done in real life” type answers. I’m on the left, too. I’m all for solutions. Let’s hear them. I’m beyond “Bernie is a shill” and “Bernie is useless”. Let’s hear your genius plan then for how to better this country. Be constructive.

There’s some people who just hate on Bernie regardless of what he says or does. He if makes no comment in this time of authoritarianism, you’ll say he’s useless. If he does speeches like he’s doing, you’ll say he’s useless- as many comments here currently reflect. He typically says things that have a moral core or decency to them. He’s of course not perfect. He also has to politically function within a broken two party bullshit system which, unless there’s a significant change to how it functions, limits how he can try to enact laws. But to many here he’s clearly damned if he does and doesn’t. I’ve read through all of the comments here so far and none of the people critiquing Bernie have offered up a tangible suggestion for what Bernie should be doing instead, rather just pointing out how ineffective they feel Bernie is. Bernie made a huge national culture shift to the left through his historic runs for president. He was stifled by the DNC and ultimately lost, but the enduring left of center message continues in many politicians running in the country on the Democratic side. I am not defending the Democrats as a party at all, but I’d argue Bernie successfully used the Dems to get his message across during his presidential runs, and now as an Independent continues to have a platform for left of center messages. Whether he’s sufficiently left enough or effective enough is the eternally tired debate with some on the left who, besides shitting on Bernie, don’t themselves offer solutions.

This is exactly my feeling. I genuinely WANT to feel positively about this, but simply don’t trust them.

I’m back to say that in really cold days in NYC I use Pearl Izumi’s AmFIB Lobster Gel gloves (https://www.pearlizumi.com/products/amfib-lobster-gel-gloves-14342006?srsltid=AfmBOoqFrw3Tpa10AD_OdQf8Dxua0bPtYIq8o3a-sO-iabqWEqq4qTlx&variant=40647605649579). Obviously NYC doesn’t get to the temps you described, but per the product page linked above, the company alleges that these gloves are made for up to minus 30 below.

Good luck in your search. Where are you based out of curiosity? Sorry I can’t help, but genuine shoutout to ride in those temps.
