[dreams scrawled out in terminals; dogs sniffed.]

@BertL Bert, if someone came up to your house because they had been assaulted in a hate crime, would you call the cops on that person for daring to tell you about it?
@BertL Bert, if you find it so unacceptable for us to be in this racist society, why don't you help out and go through all the screenshots camille has collected for us and file reports on every single one of them so they can be blocked from this server?
@BertL Bert Latamore, why would you say something like this to a person who has been targeted for racist harassment?

oh right, my #vikingbiking gear!!

-polo x-67s because i only have one pair of shoes i bike in; thick wool hiking socks; knee-high waterproof gaiters
-wool thermal tights, work jeans
-wool thermal shirt, t-shirt, hoodie (sometimes a nice technical hoodie, but lately a shitty cotton one)
-down jacket, hard shell
-wool scarf, helmet, orange ski goggles
-glove liners, 3-finger mittens, bar mitts

stay cozy, #mastobikes

wow it's -4C out and i'm excited to ride home because it's *so warm*

winter. i put on fresh brake pads about two weeks ago, and i'm almost down to the metal already ;_;

@ivanvector @nev i've fantasized about fairings, but there isn't a good way to mount them without risking front wheel strike. pedal-mounted shoe covers seem ill-advised D:
@ivanvector @nev IT'S SO TEMPTING THOUGH.
@nev i just super don't wear the right shoes to deal with extreme cold, really; i wear the same shoes that i do in the summer, and they're just really light/thin and get soaked through instantly. i pair them with thick wool socks and knee-high gaiters in this weather, which works alright if i'll be out for less than an hour.

@nev man, i wish there was a way to do bar mitts but for pedals, but i think that's not really viable as a safety concern?

bar mitts are so good, though. i've upgraded to wearing bike mittens in them on really cold days, but most of the winter, i can get along just fine with thin glove liners.

@ivanvector @nev man tbh i'm jealous of people who can sprout big fluffy beards in the winter, it looks so cozy :p
