  • Honestly, I kinda get it. It’s getting really hard to find real food. Fries taste WAY better cooked in lard. It used to be the norm, but is impossible to find now. Same with donuts or anything fried, really. Also gluten free stuff tastes like shit. I’m happy it became a trend for the actual celiacs out there though.

    I know this is meant to be funny, but animal fat > vegetable or palm oil any day.


















  • I’ve always been fascinated by these things. When you think of the relatively miniscule amount of energy it takes for a cyclist to move along at 30km/hr, or an ebiker to move along at twice that speed, it’s absolutely insane that we use 4000lb cars to move us just a bit faster still.

    If we were all to drive around in 100lb electric velomobiles with speed limits capped at around 80km/hr, everything would work better. There would be fewer safety issues, road maintenance would become almost negligible, and traffic and parking would be largely solved

    Obviously, highway vehicles and towing and delivery would all still be a thing, so this would need a completely separate road network and is basically impossible, but man are cars overkill for getting us from a to b.
