Walk safely, but carry a big brick.

What's so "seen" about carrying a (foam) brick to cross the road? That drivers would be afraid the pedestrian will throw the brick at them for not stopping and purposely run him/her/(pronoun) over?

Those fake bricks are probably germ incubators even for a short term. And I wouldn't be surprised assholes would just stick all kinds of gums, mucus and phlegm all over the bricks for "giggles" ... almost EXPECTED nowadays. And what about what's gonna happen if a pedestrian with the brick in case a close call? Is the "safety campaign" trying to legitimize throwing bricks at cars?

The whole idea is just problematic to me as a safety/social experiment.

Just be careful, look both ways before crossing and stop looking at the phone while crossing for a few seconds should do the trick.

Yes, we can argue that onus is on the drivers to avoid pedestrians getting hurt. But it's ALWAYS the pedestrians getting hurt/killed in accidents, rarely the other way around. I wouldn't leave MY life in other peoples hands whenever I cross a road, having the right of way or not.

Jon Stewart Calls BS on Trump | TDS

ReverendTed says...

As someone who was a straight-ticket Republican voter from the time I was old enough to vote until 2016, nothing has done more to drive me to vote Democrat more than Donald Trump and the Republican acceptance and defense of that deranged narcissist. That there are still tens of millions of people who are willing to vote for him is absolutely baffling to me.
That there is still a real potential that he could be elected to a second term is positively terrifying, both in terms of what damage could be done, but for what it says about our populace.

Oh no!
Already slow Tesla truck production is halted for multiple horrific issues like the trunk being a finger guillotine, the gas pedal cover detaching and sticking the pedal at full throttle, and a car wash voiding your warranty because apparently water kills the truck in multiple ways. Not good advertising for a “truck” that’s getting panned in reviews.

Joe Biden's lies are legendary.

You forgot “historical”.

Also, interesting use of the word 'legendary'.

Where Biden's lies might be 'Legendary', Trump's lies must be the opposite: real, actual, proven, true, existent, existing, factual, genuine, known, substantial, ordinary, physical, practical, tangible, material, concrete, legit, palpable, irrefutable, certifiable, dinkum, perceptible, indubitable, corporal, certified, sensible, substantive, evident, unimagined, legitimate
