It's the state of becoming aware that everyone who isn't white and male is underprivileged and that white males are all privileged and then acting upon it. Most notably like when Gillette launched their clearly biased advert which appeared to site white men as evil and all women and non whites as saviours, costing their business millions in lost revenue as they'd targeted their prime customer base, hence the phrase "get woke go broke" It's akin to what was being taught in schools and many institutions "Critical Race Theory" All this shit perpetuates racism and division and I'm bloody certain the far left financial supporters like George Soros know this very well

So, I looked at changing my wallpaper in google Chrome OS, the first thing I see is the categories of wallpapers available to me. 1, LGBTQ 2. Latino 3. Black 4. Landscapes No mention of White or Asian at all That's not fucking equality or inclusion, that's racism and exclusion

Yeah, that's the trouble with all cameras, they all tend to make automatic adjustments to increase/reduce brightness to make the overall exposure a medium grey and not what it looked like to the eye at all FYI on your shot I used "Accentuate" then went into the tools section and tweaked the saturation a tiny bit and adjusted the shadows to bring the rocks out, I then used the "Details" tool and increased structure and sharpness, it's very fast and conveniant especially on a phone or tablet, just carefull not to go OTT- 852 replies

Nice report Pete, like the video/music combination I bet that bike runs on fumes, I know the 700x get's around 75mpg apparently

I need new gloves, coming back I set my satnav to get me out of Southampton via the "twisty" route but not long into the journey it decided there was congestion (who gives a fuck about that on a scoot/bike) and it re routed me back onto the "fast" route which is shit loads of boring motorway after shit loads of boring dual carriageway, it was ironically a further journey by an extra 20 miles, I suffered it all as I couldn't tap the "fuck off no thanks" button when the re routing message popped up, touch screen gloves required me thinks. Still it was a shit load of fun "filtering" through the miles and miles of backed up cars on the motorways as it was a Friday late afternoon mega rush period, plenty of cock sucking twat cagers who resent filtering and nudge their shitmobile over to try to block you and I had to show plenty of adventure bikers how it's done Good mpg, I was expecting it to be low as I wasn't exactly riding in a frugal manner but still got 73mpg, 187 miles in just over 3hrs

Yes mate

Though I am reporting that I rode somewhere 160 miles on my scooter to Southampton I had fitted my helmet with a Bluetooth thingy so I could listen to music and hear my satnat, fuck that, the ear pieces were a little snug at first, after an hour it felt like someone was crushing my head Still a ride with some pain is still tons better than driving Spoiled for choice of beds, here's the only pics I took

OK not a photograph but a short video Vicky Vixen has been visiting for nearly three years, finally she brought some cubs in, but four is quite an achievement, I suspected three but didn't have evidence of it so put a second camera out to get a better view down the bank These are rural Foxes, very different to the urban Foxes that are accustom to humans, can't get anywhere near these, no matter how quiet I am, they can hear a heart beat at a fair distance- 852 replies

Well, just had to get out on the scoot, it's been too hot lately but today was a little cooler at 22 deg Headed up the Tawe Valley to Defynog then cut across to the A470 to grab a cheese burger (fekin £4.80), down the A470 then over sheep mountain, one sheep came over asking if I'd seen Pete as she's missing him The plan was to drop in to see my old mate Martyn as I'd heard he set up shop again, he used to own Real World Motorcycles but quite for a few years, damned roadworks, I went round and eventually found the exit, off down to Mountain Ash where I found his new bike shop and cafe "Martyn's Motos", had a chat and caught up then back up to Hirwaun and the shit roundabout then off up Righos, I love these windy mountain roads with the 180 switchbacks, after Righos I wanted to invested a site for some future photographs then back tracked to run down in to Treorchy then up the Bwlch, down the Afan valley to Pontrhydyfen (where Richard Burton was born as every boring cunt Welshman will tell you ), then into Neath over the hills to Pontardawe where some wankstain pulled out on me, damned lucky I had quick reactions or I'd have been toast, would have slammed into the side of his 4x4 at 60mph. Pictures are in no particular order
