Here's a message to all the ignorant knuckle-dragging haters out there:
Colour is only skin-deep.
Time to skin some racists just to make a point.

Nope.
I'm advocating for violence against violent enemies of our rule of law and constitutionality. If that violence comes from the FBI, I'm more than fine with that.
But I will certainly NEVER offer the other cheek to violent extremists once they start with their shit.
Now go report me somewhere if you like.
I've been on Mastodon longer than you, so just keep your descending tone where it belongs - preferably up yours.
@tk
Did you say engine?

Thanks for further amplifying the reach of my call to rightwing trolls and racist minions. I know you guys can't control yourself and have to send me some insults or very, very funny memes as a reply and to show how many you are.
Which only improves my user experience here, because I can mute or block you muppets and keep your toxic nonsense out of my federated timeline.
A great xmas present, thanks for that. No go eat some Brexit pie.
And yes: the cringe is strong with these racist vermins...
You could not make up this level of immature stupidity.
One more time: We are discussing helmet mandates and NOT helmets as such.
It's about priorities.
It's about labeling #cycling as something dangerous.
It's about lazy politicians fighting symptoms rather than addressing the cause of accidents.
It's about lame excuses in order to avoid investments in safer infrastructure.
It's NOT about the question if a helmet protects.
Got that? If so: great.
If not: Not my problem.
Important service announcement:
If you wish to enter a discussion with me, make sure
- to be well informed and stringent
- not to resort to condescending choice of words for a lack of arguments
- not to mistake smileys, memes or other nonsense for arguments.
Thank you very much.
Non-cyclists clearly do not understand that mandatory helmet laws are NOT a matter of vanity or keeping your hair style intact (my "hair style" is non-existent, as everyone familiar with the real world me certainly knows).
These kind of laws that put the onus on the most vulnerable in #traffic are fundamentally wrong. These laws attempt to reduce unnecessary damage while painting an efficient and healthy mode of #transport as dangerous.
These kind of laws hurt #cycling as such.

1. Motorbikes are a wee bit faster and heavier than bicycles. With this comes more danger.
2. Motorbikers are not the most vulnerable road users.
3. Motorbikes often have a lockable container to put the helmet.
4. Don't you dare to call my arguments "stupid" - I've won way too many arguments regarding this very topic to know they are NOT. Calling them out as "stupid" without any specifics: that's blatantly lazy however. And not the kind of "discussion" I tend to engage in.
Can we have a slow clap for #Japan's government? This is a breathtakingly stupid decision that will eliminate #cycling as a relevant mode of transport.
Making helmets mandatory has been proven repeatedly to lower overall bicycle use. And where there are less cyclists they are more endangered.
Do you want to make cycling safer? Than bloody invest in #infrastructure and don't come up with mandatory helmet laws. And no: that's NOT news.

It's been almost on month since I've returned to Switzerland from #Taiwan. Apart from the weather, the thing that I miss most obviously is #guabao aka TW's hamburger with pork belly and some veggies in a steamed bun. #food
Quite a remarkable story on #Mastodon,John as a founder and CEO of a competing social media company who got his birdy account blocked by #MadElon.
I've only got one question here: Is that Isaac Schorr dude real or another example of shoddy #AI gone terribly wrong?
@tk Haha, I have not. It's way too hard and intense an effort for anyone who's not following a serious training an nutrition plan.
As one top mountain biker in Switzerland said to me in an interview cyclocross is a full hour of going all out, freezing and suffering.
With two laps to go the deficit of Jens Adams to race leader Gerben Kuypers has come down to 22secs. We're looking at a thrilling finale of the men's Exact Cross in Essen. #cyclocross
Looks as if #winter has finally arrived in the lower regions of #Switzerland. This image has been taken at 430m above sea level.

Add badly organized lockdowns in cities such aus Shanghai, Guangzhou where people are not completely isolated from the world and the world wide web.
These lockdowns exposed the corruption and ineptitude of the #CCP. And the arbitrary nature of many repressive methods within #China.
Will the people overthrow the regime? It would be massive for world politics and #BRICS.
@dave
What left? I only see centrists in actual office. Left of the GOP, yes. But not politically left as such. Americas two-party dominance locks out the left. Not so much the fringe right that has been welcomed to join the GOP.
Great that toxic narrow-minded #cycling haters are coming forward with their stupid prejudices. So much easier to recognize these idiotic petrolheads and block them as soon as they blare out their nonsense.
Bring 'em on, I'm in the mood to block you bastards like you block cycling lanes.
@fluffy
If you should ever get out of the United States and visit EUrope, you'd see that not everything is working the same way outside of your mad empire. But if you've never left your country you probably should not try to correct the views of someone who has ridden bicycle around the world.
Thanks for not replying and keeping quiet.
