#Privacy isn't extremism, it's one of our #humanRights.
"No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks." -- UDHR Article 12

As it is, I finally made it to the full license yesterday. Would not be possible without exceptional tutoring by one of the stars of the #bmwmotorrad training centre instructors.
For the past week I've been constantly riding, sometimes in the strong winds, sometimes in the pelting, icy rain, sometimes in both...
I've been shown what riding could be, that weather conditions is something that one needs to account for but by no means something that excludes a day from enjoyable riding!
I lost some weight through this week, I gained a lot more.
This was an exceptional experience in the very positive sense of the phrase, something unfathomable for the past me stuck on the North Circular riding my 125ccm bike.
And at some point in the February I'll pick up my new F750 GS... Can't wait. My #motorcycle journey has truly just started, despite all the years spent on the smaller bike.
Not sure if anyone knows the song "Black Me Out" by Against Me!, but I think one too many people pissed me off today. And I might just do what the lyrics suggest to the next person who pisses me off...#JustSaying #DontPissMeOff
Matt Schlapp loves fascism and assault
Matt #Schlapp is the sound 2 raw porkchops make when hitting the kitchen floor.
Did you ever wonder as you stand as still as the trees in a storm and feel the earth breathe under your feet and steady yourself as the air tries to dance with you that the memories old trees hold must be so vast only the wind is immense enough to bear it.
Listen more. It's worth it.
Yes I know. It's a day to be wistful in. πΏ
This #missingperson is a friend of a friend of mine and his family is very worried about him. Please share this when it comes across your TL so we can get Ian home!! #SoCal #LongBeach #LongBeachCA
With all the negativity of the current news cycle, it's easy to forget that most people are basically decent.
Here's a little story about what happened to me today. I couldn't fit it into the 500-character posting limit, so put it up on my blog.

Another attack on transgender rights made by English media.
And also a even more implicit attack on Scotland .

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
