Now what’s the chance of this actually passing?

Bonus content: The sparring log

1. People/oncoming cars/kids are more likely to be in the road than in the spot I’m parking
2. I have better visibility when I’m facing forward than when I’m in reverse

Therefore I would rather reverse into the spot where people/cars/kids are least likely to be and drive forward into the place people/cars/kids are most likely to be. I personally almost always back in to be safer towards pedestrians and avoid getting hit by other cars.

But I need muh SUV!

Those poor brain worms must be starving

There ya go

Not sure why people make posts like that. Anyone pissed at reddit isn't pulling out their credit card. Obviously if you make a post to not buy awards people are going to give it as many awards as possible to try and be funny.

There is chicken in the curry :) the cauliflower was just a side dish.

I wonder which side doesn’t want it to pass /s

Don’t worry! We’ll go through the process of revising safety ratings to include people outside the car just for auto manufacturers to switch their advertisements to say “five star passenger safety rating” instead 😀

I mean the cardboard box wasn’t secure so it kinda flopped all over the place on my way in. I don’t plan on having to carry that again though and the ride back was much smoother. I’m lucky enough that my whole commute is multi-use trails so besides half a dozen crosswalks I don’t deal with cars much.

I keep a 60g starter in my fridge and only feed it when I want to make a loaf (every 2-3 weeks). Pretty much zero waste and super low maintenance :) keeping a bigger starter might look cool but practically speaking you don’t need anything huge.

Went well! Definitely planning on doing it again tomorrow. It’s about 8 miles one way but generally pretty flat and all on paved trails. I end up on the W&OD trail at the end of my ride which is some pretty sweet infrastructure by American standards.

Yeah these ones rose pretty well! I use 1/2 tsp of commercial yeast for some extra lift in addition to the sourdough starter.

Looks great! I use the pain de campagne recipe from Flower Water Salt Yeast since I can fit in my schedule the easiest

Haha I would but the friend I bought the bike from is definitely is a part of those circles. I don’t know if he would forgive me if I took his custom built bike and immediately slapped a kickstand on it. That or I’ll just do it and never tell.

The dingy laundromat really just ties the whole image together

Ha you’re not wrong. I haven’t given fully naturally-leavened bread a go with my new starter just yet but it’s definitely on my to-do list :)

Ah gotcha. That’s fair enough. I’ve never tried it before but apparently drying out the starter is a way to make it last for long periods of time and then be quick to refresh.
