      I’d say it’s a reaction to mental illness. An attempt by people to try to get a handle on something. If you look at religious people, they tend to all be a little off.

        You don’t have to be mentally ill to be religious. Some people just grew up with it and see it as their reality, and some people adopted it. Most religious people are not more or less mentally ill than the average religious none or atheist.

    Gabe Poirot was riding an electric skateboard at around 30 miles per hour without a helmet in October 2021 when he hit a small bump in the road and flipped backwards, landing directly on his head.

    The impact cracked the then 20-year-old’s skull, causing a traumatic brain injury.

    It’s kind of tragic how badly a TBI can mess up someone’s life, especially at such a young age.

      With the increase of cheap ebikes this is becoming more and more common. Saw a CBC Marketplace investigation recently where most Toronto stores they visited advertised those vehicles to the under 16, against the law. They also offered to remove limiters to make the bikes go considerably faster.

      They interviewed a teenager who now is missing chunks of his skull and cant form memories anymore.

      Or a young child who got hit and run by an ebike and looked like he was in a car accident.

      Context for the uninitiated:

      Also note my surprised face that the entire account is vaguely homoerotic. Yet again, repressed sexuality seems to be at play here.
