I just rented a fuel vehicle the other day and goddamn rental car prices are higher than ever.
The biggest issue is that you'll have to stop for an extended period of time to charge up. Having multiple 5 minute stops along your trip is different than having multiple 30-45 minute stops. It does add up.
Personally that isn't the reason I didn't get an EV. I briefly considered it last time I was in the market for a new car...but I don't live in a single family home and my complex doesn't have charging stations. So I decided against it. Imo lack of at home charging infrastructure in multi family housing blocks is the biggest barrier to more widespread EV adoption.
Edit: charity -> charging
I wonder if it's an ai designed product
This is maybe tmi, but female bodies produce secretions down there even while not on their period. It's called cervical mucous and is most notable once a month (a week or two after your period ends), but can sometimes occur at other times. I understand that you are male. But as someone with female parts, I just wonder if it would be embarrassing standing up and there is a stain on the sheets on the couch.
Use your credit card exactly like a debit card. Pay off the balance each month. You won't be paying interest this way. This is very important. Don't treat a credit card like free money.
You want to use a certain amount of your credit line each month to build a history. But this is very important...do NOT let your statement balance be 50% or more of your credit line. It will actively hurt your credit. You want your statement balance to be more than zero, but still less than around 45% of your credit line.
I have seen my credit go up and down by doing or not doing these things.
I have never heard of a secured versus unsecured credit card before though. Why are you looking for one versus the other?
Yeah I'm with you on this. It's a hugely important distinction. Suicide due to mental health reasons is most often NOT rational. I'm so fucking glad I didn't kill myself when my mind was in that state. Sometimes I get periodically horrified at how close my mind has gotten in the past.
Homie, you had it set to whore
Haha I was initially describing a concept that I came across in learning DBT therapy. But I always felt as though certain components of the therapy do draw from eastern philosophies!
You are not required to file your taxes when you make under a certain amount. There were a couple of years where I didn't.
Sometimes I get curious about trying one of these. My downstairs doesn't seem to function, so to speak, despite the anatomy being all there. But I've always wondered if any specific device designed for that might make me feel something. But I don't love the idea of spending a bunch of money and being put on some sex toy mailing list in order to most likely be disappointed.
Actually...weirdly enough, a majority of these cases of lung damage from vaping happened in 2019-2020. One of the most likely culprits of the outbreak is a chemical called vitamin E acetate, which was used as a thickening agent in weed vapes. I don't think we've had many cases since the major outbreak.
So it might not have been "vaping too much" so much as it was likely contaminated vapes.
I don't vape, myself. But there is always more background info to discover on these things.
I know it's not really a meme, but I amused myself doing this. Not very elaborate but still! He'll hopefully be riding to work with me all this month as long as he doesn't fall off and I can still open my case enough to put my helmet in lol.
Hey all. Just looking for a quick opinion. I have wanted to get one final arm tattoo. Only my forearm and wrist tattoos are visible a majority of the time because I work in short sleeves and pants lol. I want something else visible for me to look at!
Here's a pic of the placement of all of my tattoos (outer ankle tattoo not visible tho):
The tattoo will essentially be three smaller tattoos in a row. Thematically, it fits in with my shoulder tattoo.
Here's a shitty scratch pic kind of trying to showing where I want it. I want to go inner bicep:
As you can see, one of my legs is tattooed. I am planning to slowly build sort of a patchwork leg sleeve over time with any remaining tattoo ideas. This would be the last tattoo to go on my arms. I don't plan on tattooing the other leg.
But the placement I want for this upcoming tattoo combined with the knowledge that I'm done with the arms and only planning to do one leg makes things seem rather unbalanced with shorts. I live in a fairly hot climate wh re it's shorts weather most of the year.
Idk is this too awkward to get or am I overthinking it?
Thanks lol.
I impulse bought an orange gas tank online. One of my many regrets in impulse buying my bike was that I wanted a brighter color lol. I really wanted the bright red, but only found dented ones for a reasonable price. Found this orange one instead and mashed the buy button lol.
Some follow up questions:
How do I get last bit of fuel out from the old tank? There is still quite a bit swishing around even after I took off the fuel cap and fuel pump and poured gas directly from the openings. At the moment, it is just turned upside down in a pan hoping the remainder will eventually dry out/evaporate.
How can I help prevent the old tank from rusting in storage? I'm not necessarily planning to use it again, but just in case.
How the fuck do I get fuel to pour out of this gas can with a "safety spout"? Basically you push on the spout to get it to pour, but it only barely dribbles out that way. The red tab I think needs to be depressed or moved somehow but it won't budge. Any ideas? I just ended up removing the spout and pouring it directly out of the can via funnel
Bonus: Looking for some ideas to temporarily decorate the bike for Halloween! The bike is kept outside tho so it would need to be somewhat weather proof lol.

Hi all. Noob here back again. I got the screws out of the front master cylinder, but I have been having a different problem.
When under higher RPMs, the bike gives off a VERY strong fuel smell. It's still noticeable at lower RPMs, but not as bad. It didn't do this initially when I got it a few months ago, but I didn't ride it much initially.
Bike is a 2017 Honda Rebel 300. Fuel injected. No carb.
I noticed that the gasket to the gas cap was a bit cracked and distorted so I got a new gas cap. Didn't resolve the issue.
There are no visible leaks anywhere that I can tell.
The smell is very strong around the gas cap and engine, not so much the tailpipe. The bike seems to run great otherwise.
Unfortunately, googling seems to show this as a very nonspecific issue, so I'm a bit lost as to where to begin. I'm a huge noob when it comes to mechanical things.
Thanks!
Hello. I'm a new rider who recently purchased a ten year old bike. I have ZERO mechanical know how, but decided that I wanted to learn.
So far I managed to take both the front and rear wheels off to get the tires changed and I managed to change the oil. Since I am unskilled, it took a LOT of fumbling through these to get things going...including breaking some nuts (rear axle nut was stuck and I originally only had a 12 point socket) and bolts (overtorqued an oil filter cover bolt despite using a torque wrench) and buying replacement ones.
Since the bike is 10 years old, I know that all of the fluids need to be changed. I feel comfortable attempting the actual change for the brake fluid from my research EXCEPT I don't want to irreparably damage this area. The front brake works fine, but the sight glass is totally clouded and opaque, so I cannot visually check the condition or level of the fluid.
These are JIS screws and I have purchased replacement screws. Any advice here? Please consider my novice skill level lol.
I bought some screw extractor bits but do not have an impact driver. I have some JIS screwdrivers, a hammer, a regular drill, penetrating oil, and replacement JIS screws.
Thanks!

Tap for spoiler
I got a really close shot of him and just wanted to post lol.
Generally only if you're incredibly stupid. Small children you have to watch tho.
