E-bikes provide a healthy and budget-friendly transportation alternative for travelling, running errands, and recreational activities. According to a current report by the NPD Group, e-bike sales…

three ships: zukka (surprise suprise) korrasami, and bubbline

first ever ship: starfire and robin from teen titans! (also wally and jinx...i rewatched that episode so much as a kid)

last song: Hey I Don't Work Here by Tom Cardy

currently reading: Blue Period and She Who Became the Sun (so I can understand ash-and-starlight's art...) and Six of Crows

currently watching: I'm rewatching doctor who. I've been feeling so nostalgic lately...

currently consuming: apple cider

currently craving: anything sweet

current obsessions: Baldur's gate. I've finally gotten on a roll of accomplishing things in the game and have been playing it all weekend and then listening to the soundtrack during work. it makes work sound very epic...

currently up to: commissions, drawing some angsty zukka comics, and some bg3 fanart (aka spending forever failing to draw astarion)

aand tagging: @chief-boomerang @frstcorinthians @bisexuallsokka @ash-and-starlight @icrowler and anyone else who wants to do it!!

#man i should draw teen titans fanart. make my middle school self proud #my friend says the way i read books is weird but i think having one at my nightstand for bed and one in my backpack for my work commute and #then reading manga voraciously at my desk is a totally normal way to split up a reading load #anaaand technically i have two more on my nightstand that i alternate through via stack but i felt like that was adding too many titles #ask game #notmyart #these are fun but tagging people always stresses me out lol #so many things i want to draw!!! how to pick one?? #i can't wait to share my tav too! lots of fun comics if i ever get around to it. i wanna talk about him....aagggg

I saw people mock nickelback for years, then I saw people mock imagine dragons for years, & both times I said "oh come on they aren't even that bad, could be a lot worse" & a finger curled on the monkeys paw & now AJR exists

#literally looney tunes music #i heard their new album against my will & my local ''alternative'' radio station played bangx3 every fucking day on my commute #yeah this is the alternative station that thinks heatwaves counts as alternative #i have several bones to pick with them

I wish you could arrange google maps results by shortest transit commute. It’s going to take me so long to figure out what fabric stores I can get to without a car when I’m sure google maps could cook up a sorting algorithm easily. Anyone know anything that does this?

#alternatively any best recommendations for fabric stores in Manhattan #bc while it may not be the closest commute it’s often the simplest commute #third option who wants to drive me to the fabric store lol #rebecca rambles

[sylviii]

the song "Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man" but it's just about moving to a new state and transitioning

#alternatively: a bigender person who commutes between the two #sylvi speaks

I LOVE THE GERMAN PUBLIC TRANSIT SYSTEM IT IS SO RELIABLE AND DEFINITELY NOT CANCELLING 3/4 OF THE TRANS THAT I NEED FOR UNI FOR A MONTH :)))))))))))))

#lunar lullabies #AAAAAAAAAA #alternative are busses that may or may not run and also add 20 minutes to my commute :))))))

okay but like as a practicing Christian that grew up in the church I absolutely LIVE for ST's gospel influences. Like Levitate could easily be part of a Sunday morning worship set and it makes me feel so cozy and connected to the music + the message

#theres a weird kind of dissonance between indulging the cult theme and personal faith convictions #like i personally dont feel 100% comfortable with some of the language (eg. worship or ritual) #idk i think its important to engage in media that's inspired by alternate views on religion to get where others are coming from #but that's just bc of the weight those kinds of spiritually-charged terms have to me #but i think the way they incorporate spirituality is ultimately respectful in its use as a metaphor #anyways that's just my morning commute ramble lol #sleep token #elkk.txt

[that-starlight-prince]

Wistful meows

#my brain is still very much on its bullshit #i've now constructed an entire alternate universe #where me and cute boy from the library end up making out while we're walking through the snow over to his dorm room #real me at that age was too busy hiding in my room at my parent's house having mental breakdowns #in between commuting to class and otherwise doing nothing to make friends #what's past is past and i have to move on i know. but i'm just gonna spend a minute here sitting with regret

[raibebe]

i miss sugar baby jeno so much😭

Everyone who knows him probably does at this point 🥲

Honestly, I recently had the idea to take everything I had up until now, take it down (don’t panic), edit it and then upload it again since I don’t think it accurately shows my style of writing anymore which is also one of the reasons why I am hesitating to update.

Also I don’t think the chaptered, chronological format fits me very well… I do much better with the scenario like updates that I (should) do for Everlong & the Hybridverse…

#that and no time lmao #when I get home from work I just want to eat shower and then faceplant into my bed #or alternatively play animal crossing (yes I started again) or do my diamond painting #am very tired of having to act like an adult and go to work #also doesn’t help that my commute takes up something close 3 hours every day if you combine both trips :] #but I wanted this :]]] #rai’s mail #rai’s anons #sugar & spice

[corvidaedream]

having a dysphoric one tonight lads

#messages from the ouija board #boy i wish i could wear skirts and ruffles without anyone gendering me #i dont even want to pass as a guy or make people confused i dont really know what i want #the way i am feels bad and the alternatives feel bad :))) #i never feel this way at work bc at work im lucy and shes a cis woman but shes not me #people dont see me and think im a woman they see lucy and think shes a woman. and theyre right. it has nothing to do w me. #but on the train home lucys not there anymore. its like ive taken off armor. #and yes i chose to dress like a calico critter or w/e for my commute but thats not the point

I truly don’t understand how people are just…normal about driving. Like. You are in control of a metal death machine, responsible for its movement as if it is an extension of yourself, but you just have to like know how far out from your own body it extends. You’re going 60 mph along with everyone else, they can’t be trusted to be any good at what they’re doing so you have to monitor and be aware of their movements. You’re having to pay attention to 360 degrees around you at all times via multiple mirrors while navigating other drivers, pedestrians, fucking BIKES, the road, know where you’re going and how to get there and turn at the right time and change lanes all while following a complex set of rules and not killing anyone or dying. Just…excuse me? You all just…do this? Every day ??? I feel like you’re all lying to me honestly. Like cool invention you got there but what the FUCK

#I know it’s my adhd and anxiety talking #but also like IS IT? #bc this concept seems INSANE to me #I really do want/need to learn how to drive #even in an American city that by comparison to the others is public transpo friendly #my freedom is still severely limited #I can’t do a full grocery shopping trip by myself #have to carefully plan every commute and give myself lots of extra time in case something goes wrong #etc #so im often still dependent on others for rides #but the alternative fills me with such dread #I wish we all still just rode horses #the thought of learning that skill fills me with glee! #rather than utter fucking dread #it also doesn’t help that I’ve gotten motion sickness my whole life #once you hit a certain number of puke incidents in a car #you tend to not associate it as a positive experience lol #cars #driving #anxiety #adhd #transportation

Just had a job interview that I really hope I get! Fingers crossed!

#only downside is its an hour commute #but id at least be getting paid to work in my field #when the alternative was more volunteer work

[cirolik]

Sometimes tv shows get the exact way a piece of machinery works wrong and it really irritates me. Like I get that most people don't understand how every single machine works but I understand how machines work on a fundamental level and it drives me insane

#the scene in breaking bad when they are turning the engine instead of the generator #saying commutator instead of armature #small combustion engines have a magneto based ignition system! not a alternator based....

Just me and the boys (two sugar sachets) against the world (commuting for exams)

#i can't eat bc the anxiety of Both commuting and the exam messes with my stomach hence: sugar #not a Great substitute for actual food i'm aware ! but i need Something to fuel me no less #especially since now it isn't even 12 and i'm only getting out of there at 16:30 T-T nevermind the journey back #mytext #idk how i'll survive the semesters to come since they also want to revert back to in presence lectures only :') #like i get wanting the exams to be in presence only but the lectures too!? after all the money you've spent these past few years on #the internet connection the pcs and all!? #i've argued with people who were all like ''urr durr don't be lazy that's how things used to be before covid'' and i. 🔪🔪🔪 #okay!!! people used to ride carriages before cars became a thing why don't we revert back to them too then !!!!!!!! #and it's not even a matter of laziness because commuting Does mess you up man #why make people lose time and energy when you have an alternative Right There. an alternative you've invested in no less!!!!! #uni

The abhorrent state of public transit in Metro Detroit has me in an unnecessarily bad state of mind right now.

#We're the same size as BOSTON what do you mean there's NO FUCKING COMMUTER RAIL OR SUBWAY #I HATE GM AND FORD AND EISENHOWER AND THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY ACT AND REAGAN AND MDOT #WHITMER YOU ONLY GET A PASS BECAUSE THE ALTERNATIVES WERE BOOK BANNING PTA MOM AND THE TAINTER OF CITIES #Listen I know the mbta isn't doing so hot right now but at least it exists #The fact that a city of 600k with almost 5 million in the metro area has one streetcar line and a monorail is really disheartening #Doubly so when we apparently have the money for an electric car charging lane and an autonomous vehicle only lane #In a state that doesn't yet allow autonomous automobiles

Day 3538 - We needed the electric car to be available a time-sensitive errand, so I got inspired to bike to a doctor's appointment across town over driving our non-electric car.
