  • Add to this, you can counter balance the bike to tighten your U turn. This is especially helpful with some of the bigger/heavier/older bikes. I shift half my butt to the outside, keeping myself on top of the bike while leaning the bike in as much as I need to. It takes practice learning to maintain slight rear brake pressure while doing this, but that’s what practice is for! With this method, I can easily U turn an 80’s goldwing in a single 10’ wide parking space!


  • You’re completely misreading this because you’re assuming our brains work the same as neuro-typical brains when it comes to status seeking. The vast majority of autistic people couldn’t care less about asserting a “cool flex”. The whole point of posts like this is just to say, “this thing that you see as different is because we’re different then you NTs and this is why”. Being different is only inherently cool if you’re an NT. We NEVER win that game, so we don’t play it.

    In other words, this post is saying “don’t tread on me because I’m different than you. There’s a reason I do it this way.” Your response is essentially “you’re actually just like us, so you should just assimilate and learn to be like us. StOp bEinG So EDgy!”

    Also, this IS “the weird kid coming out into the light”. You just don’t like that what that looks like isn’t what you expected or, apparently, wanted. No, the world wouldn’t be a better place if everyone just saw it the way you do. That’s an incredibly immature and self-centered perspective.

    If it seems like I’m irked by your comment, it’s because I am. This is the exact BS NT people are always trying to cram down our throats without realizing how harmful it is to us. Just let people be who they are. We don’t need the entire human race to look and function in pure homogeneous order.




  • I blame the DNC for constantly shooting themselves in both feet, especially when it comes to their insistence on running sham primaries. I blame the neoliberals in both parties for creating the propaganda and legal bribery industries that shifted the Overton window so far right in this country. I blame voters like you, for not being able to see the forest for the trees when the options we’re given are more neoliberalism, or blatant fascism. You chose now, of all times, to put your foot down with the DNC, because that’s what the bandwagon was doing. Now you think your rage at the system justifies a decision, that you made, that helped bring us outright fascism. Meanwhile, minorities like me get to sit here wondering why so many leftists were willing to sacrifice us on the alter of idealogical purity. If you were actually concerned about Palestinians, you would’ve voted for the option that had potential to ease their suffering. In other words, there would’ve been far more political pressure on Harris to do something about the genocide. Instead, we got Trump talking about “wiping it clean” for new development. If you want to continue to justify implicitly voting for Trump, by abstaining, then please explain how Trump is better for Palestine than Harris. That was your primary motivation for not voting after all, right?
