OP

Canadian here. Not sure if this is PreperIntel worthy but just reporting something I've honestly never seen in my life. Canadians woke up today feeling super patriotic. And super pissed. Not that we aren't usually patriotic but we aren't a bunch of flag wavers. It's more a quiet patriotism we keep to ourselves. And we are generally a polite and reserved bunch in general.

Not today. Holy... the mood in Canada is ... PISSED.

Most of the anger is aimed at your current head of state but also at your country as a whole. Not so much individual Americans. You will be perfectly safe traveling through Canada or visiting. But there is outright anger directed at any product with a "Made in the USA" flag. Every store in Canada is going around with maple leaf stickers marking the "Made in Canada" products. Consumer boycotts are springing up organically across the country. The talk is really sort of ... ugly.

I get the sense there has been significant damage done to the US Brand in Canada. And I don't think it's confined to Canada. I have friends in the UK who say the same. They are also just frankly pissed beyond all reason. I expect it's the same across Europe.

Hopefully it dies down. It's absolutely non-productive and unCanadian. America and Canada have been ride or die BFF's for a century or more. I live in Arizona 1/2 time and I love LOVE it here. I have yet to personally meet an American I didn't genuinely like. You are good people. You do not deserve any of this.

Unless of course you voted for this. In which case... hope you get everything you voted for and then some.

also RIP to /r/prepperintel, it has turned into just another 'Drumf le bad' subreddit

The fishies look so anatomically incorrect and you can sort of see how they would one day evolve into the more common designs we are used to now. Evolution is so cool what's crazy is that those lifeforms took 100s of millions of years to get from what is in the animation to the life we see around us today.

Based on how much more complex life is today I believe the current era is the most complex in terms of the amount of diversity of life on the planet at a time. In my opinion evolution is also speeding up because look at how much more simpler life forms get the further back in time one goes.

I bet if humans went extinct, it would barely take 10 million years for the planet to evolve another life form as smart as humans.

I think that is a fascinating theory that most sci fi does not pursue often. That maybe there is a time period in a planet's evolutionary history where it can produce intelligent lifeforms, and once it gets there, it keeps pumping out smarter life forms over time forever until the death of the planet.

Like humans took 100s of thousands of years to evolve from their ancestor species. Perhaps the other apes that are still around will take far less time to get to our level, and the next group after them take ever less time, because evolutionary complexity and adaptability keeps going up the longer you leave a life form running till the heat death of the universe.

That's just a theory on my part though. Still cool.

/r/The_Donald discusses sending in Marines to declare martial law

Sure, I've neglected everything else I'm supposed to be doing but look at that view count.

How many of you break the law just to goon? It aint a new thang! The old heads would break the law all the time just to goon! Aight, sheeit imma hit ya'll off with a quick lesson on masturbation. You see, none of the GOONERS can agree on where gooning originated and how some GOONING became illegal and some didn't. Sheeit, some of our GOONERS are Christians and according to them, God HATES gooners. As proof, they point to the story of Onan. That's a real deep cut there nigguh get your googles on that shit for real. That dude was the first to say yo FRICK GOD I DON'T WANT GUSSY because GOONING is better.

Folks like me, we goon hard but we ain't Christians. I'm not tryna read an old book unless its a sticky playboy ya heard me? in my set we believe that true gooning as we enjoy it today originated with De Sade. Now that motherlover figured out that all these laws, morality, and modesty is bullshit. It's all about GOONING NON-STOP to COMPLETELY ABHORRENT shit. Check this shit out, this gentleman GOONED so hard the FEDS said ENOUGH FUN and they charged him with pornography, s*x crimes, and blasphemy. He said I ain't gonna stop COOMING this is what I believe in to the bottom of my heart I die for this goon shit. I didn't even mention that this KING had royal ancestry. They arrested him many times and he just kept getting out. He gooned so hard FEDS were trying to KILL him.

They aint kill him though. My gooners, we look up to De Sade. We stay in that evil shit bruh we know that the best cooms come from the worst filth imaginable

• Virgin vulva in a monogamous marriage making consentual and thoughtful love to each other?

NO. I HATE THAT SHIT NIGGUH.

De Sade is a real G for us gooners. If you don't understand then maybe you're not a REAL GOONER and we don't want no FAKE GOONERS on our set so you best get going. Before he left, he wrote the best filth ever. Shit goes so hard, it has GOONER scholars decoding it in modern day. Sheeeit. This GENIUS left behind the whole blueprint for HARDCORE GOON ADDICTS.

https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/we-translated-the-marquis-de-sade-s-most-obscene-work-here-s-how-a7393066.html

Now there's one more set I wanna talk about and that's the EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGISTS. Sheeit, I don't really frick with these BIPOCs. They be using science and shit to trace back the origins of COOMING in humans and the psychological underpinnings of GOONING in our shared human ancestry. Because it's crazy, cultures around the world, completely disconnected across space and time, and we all GOON hard.

Some of us gooners, sheeit when we're not out there selling COOMpacks on Whatsapp/Telegram, we look up at the stars and wonder... do aliens coom? If they do then maybe this goon shit goes back further than human history. Maybe it was passed down to us from ancient galactic beings. And it's our duty to pass on the gift of GOONING to the next generation and get them hooked on TORRENTED PORN, USED TAMPONS, and UNSAFE S*X.

But this post isn't about all the sets. It's about one young man who had the courage to stand against society and GOON. That man is me. Sheeit when I started gooning I was just a YB aint got shit going on for me in life except weak butt shit like college, caring parents, and goals and aspirations. Then I discovered GOONING and I realised actually I aint tryna hear all that shit. I was put on this Earth to GOON.

WOMEN TRY TO STOP ME FROM COOMING BUT THEY CAN'T.

I want pain, faeces, and rotten, cut-open torsos that I coom into. But back when I was a wee young lad I didn't have TERABYTES of COOMpacks (DM me for details). So sheeit I did what's called the dictionary game. I would look up naughty words in a physical dictionary, read that filth, and GOON hard.

It's the best way to goon. You don't need:

• Clothes

• Lube

• Internet

• Electricity

• A mobile device or electronic gadgets

You just need a dictionary and your hand. Just keeping gooning boys. The promised land is almost here.

THEY NOT LIKE US.

I've been a US Government employee for almost 25 years. We had our "Return to Office" meeting today. They have even gotten rid of episodic/situational telework. I have two kids in braces and one of them is in counseling twice a month. I was hoping they would still let us work partial days off but they aren't. I'm going to have to take a full day off every time one of them has an appointment. I don't know how I'm going to do this. I'm also in the process of getting divorced and I can't even get their dad to do the dishes so he's not going to help just to punish me.

The comments:

By looking at your post history and I quote " I have always been a fiscal conservative" so you can see how you created this problem no? What do you expect us to do about it ?

I didn't vote for Trump if that is what you're asserting. I have never voted for a Republican actually. I support policies that make sense. Not talking out of both sides of your head. One side says "save money" and the other side says "and we will rent more office space or pay for people to relocate if we have to just to make people come in".

Trump is the cumination of years of work done by Republicans to undermine our democracy, from gerrymandering districts to the push for anti abortion rights that started over 40 yrs ago just because you didn't vote for one Republican doesn't mean you didn't help put him in the white house. And now you come to us whining about your problems. I for one do not feel a bit sorry for you. You have been anti government for most of your life while sucking at the government tit for the last 25 yrs. About time you found out what side your bread was buttered on.

Ooooo looks like the leopards are eating well here

These reddittors are so annoying, I almost feel bad for the OP.

Why aren't there more women @$$@$!n$

Silver Lining folks. Just to clarify, I am a veteran, was a GS-8 for 3 years. I know work for the State. There will be a revolution. There will be a mounted push back. Hang in there. Find good leadership in the shadows and STAY TOGETHER!

I'm so sorry. The Nazis are literally in charge now.

The purpose of this is to get federal employees to quit just know that. They're trying to make this a very difficult situation

(In particular, to get women to quit)

This is it right here. Once again women will be forced to decide between economic leverage and their children.

Christo-fascism requires strict gender roles/hierarchy. We'll see a lot more of this kind of sh%t over the next four years.

Preach. It's too often women who have to sacrifice their careers for their families.

yep, my male coworkers would rush off to happy hour to brownnose the bosses while my female coworkers rushed home to get their kids from daycare. guess who gets considered for the promotions?

But probably not cause the cute twink had the NERVE to correct Ye on the spelling of his name. Adin is a broke butt neighbor.

Subreddit info

/r/bikecommuting is a simple subreddit for users to post biking photos, news discussions, or hot takes about biking.

OP's Complaint

OP, after being confronted taking their bike inside their local Home Depot (a home improvement store), makes the following post, complete with an image for reference:

Home Depot told me I can't bring my bike into the store

I typically bring my bike into the hardware store with me unless there are proper bike racks. I don't see a problem with it as it's no bigger than a cart. The Lowe's by me removed their bike racks for an air compressor so I take it in. This Home Depot is new and I had looked for their bike racks but couldn't see them in the front of the warehouse, so I took it in.

When checking out I was told I can't bring my bike in as it is a safety concern. I gave a rebuttal that it's no bigger than a cart and they said it could fall and block an entire aisle when the carts can't fall over. I didn't continue the questions because they just work there but it seemed ridiculous to me.

Apparently their bike racks are in the back of the warehouse completely isolated, not somewhere i would feel comfortable locking my bike.

I'm going to continue bringing my bike into the store.

[Image of bird's eye view of the Home Depot and parking lot shows the entrance on the northwest side (marked with an arrow by OP), and the outdoor bike racks on the southeast area (circled for our convenience)]

Users debate the bike hike

It's a safety concern:

Bike traffic can be a safety concern around the entrance area with people, trolleys and cars. In some way this is not so bad. At least they have bike racks which is nice! Many stores don't provide that where I live.

When you say bike traffic, are you imagining OP riding their bike into the store?

Of course I'm not. I just mean that the store front is usually a place you don't want bikes parked and the traffic of them. Would be better to have bike parking on the parking lot, but we all know that is unlikely.

"Get over it"

Get over it, you are being a whiny ninny. I park mine at the car corral at Lowe's and never had an issue.

OP: Straight to name calling huh, sticks and stones... I would have found a suitable spot to lock it up outside if it had been a problem before, this was the first time I had been told not to bring it in

I intentionally ram carts into bikes at the cart corral.

How would you feel if someone intentionally rammed a cart into your car?

Guess they'd have to decide how much their Cannondale and legs are worth to them

It was more a question about intentionally damaging someone's property than a question of whether you like cyclists or not. I think it's just rude to ruin someone's shit, even if you don't inherently like them. Treat people the way you want to be treated, that's at least how I feel.

Then strap your bike to the bike rack.

"there is no bike rack"

Edit: well, this guy has a bike rack at his place lmao, mine doesn't have it tho rip

Private property, private rules:

You sound like an entitled jerk.

It's private property, they can have a rule that doesn't allow bikes. Just because it isn't convenient for you, doesn't mean you can just do whatever you want. [downmarseyd]

You'd have a point if they didn't install bike racks on the back side of the building forcing users to walk all the way around. They KNEW what they were doing. Treating us like shit because they can and we have no power.

Okay? So shop somewhere else.

It's a private business, you have to follow their rules.

Oh my god you have to spend a whole extra minute walking around the corner. Life gets much harder, hunny

Be fair, to walk all the way around a super store is more like 3 minutes.

and it's more about the indignation. Like forcing women to breastfeed near the trash bins out of sight.

OP should get trespassing charges:

This is a reasonable rule. I hope OP gets trespassed. [downmarseyd]

Why? To both.

Bringing a bike into a store is weird, like the people who bring their dogs everywhere. At least dogs are cute.

OP feels like flouting rules on private property.

I get that to some degree, but the part about getting trespassed is extreme to me. It's not as if they shoplifted or hurt anybody.

The audacity of OP:

wtf why would you bring a bike into the store

OP: Because I would be nervous about locking it in a place that, to me, would be ideal for a thief. And I was loading directly into my panniers using it as a cart

That's why people hate bicyclists [downmarseyd]

OP: Right...

What about dogs?

I can bring my dog but you can't bring a bicycle!?

Bicycles shit in the aisles, dogs don't.

I was bitten by a bicycle in lighting.

Did you go to the hospital? I heard bicycles carry rabies

I actually died right there in the lighting aisle. So that why I'm against bikes and pro car now.

Singular takes

Too far to walk for your American butt?

They maybe take a cut of the profit from each bike stolen

bikers are the most oppressed class

"I'm going to continue bringing my bike into the store."

So, you were literally told it's against store policy but you're so entitled it doesn't apply to you. You're a garbage excuse for a human.

Sounds like a battle of stubbornness is to be had. They're not going to ban you from the store over this so just keep doing what you're doing.

If the store said don't bring your bike inside, don't bring your bike inside. I can't bring my car inside.
