Does anyone know if there is a list of Knoxville business that do not allow firearms? I was getting a sandwich today and there was another customer open-carrying. It makes me feel incredibly anxious and uncomfortable to be around random people with firearms and if possible I want to avoid businesses that permit people to carry.
As much as I love Knoxville, this new gun legislation might be what drives me out of TN. I have one kid and another on the way... I don't want them to grow up and think you need a gun to buy a sandwich.
Hello everyone, hope your new year has been smooth so far.
After my Gotway Tesla cut out on me twice, I decided on getting a new wheel, and the S18 is where I landed. I'm no extreme rider by any means, and the suspension looked like a real quality of life improvement.
Unfortunately, there are a couple of things wrong.
The most major of the problems is that it's "upright" position is at a 45 degree angle. Once it is turned on from true upright position, it slowly tilts itself back (or forward) to 45 degrees. I've tried calibrating, many times, and this sometimes works, but more than once I have been riding and slowly felt the wheel move to it's preferred 45 degrees. That was a strange feeling while trying to stop 🙃
Other problems:EUC World app notified me that the speed cap was removed, but I am still unable to move faster than 10mphOccasional 3 rapid beeps while moving, not sure what this is indicatingtail light flashes slowly while not moving
If anyone happens to have any answers, I would be most grateful. Thanks so much!
UPDATE: I noticed that EUC World gives you the option of downgrading firmware. So I did, thinking that might solve my problems, and maybe later update it back to the latest firmware, but now the wheel won't turn on 😑
I think I'll be sending it back. Thanks for your input everyone!
Let me know what you think, comrades. Hopefully some of this can be useful to you. I am American so obviously this is tailored more for an American audience, though tbf it is mostly only a concern in the US due to our crazy gun culture here.
Socialism and communism are not inherently anti-gun ownership. People who say things like "x socialist country banned guns so they're evil totalitarians" are spouting propaganda which is easily disproven. The problems with such claims are numerous:
-
Gun culture and views about firearms are different everywhere. People forget that the US Supreme Court didn't rule that the Second Amendment actually upheld the individual's right to bear arms until DC vs Heller in 2008, the culmination of a 50-year lobbying campaign by the NRA to shift public opinion on the issue. American obsession with everyone owning a howitzer is a very new cultural phenomenon which does not exist basically anywhere else in the world and never has. Holding every government to the same standard is ridiculous, and even our own founding fathers would have gawked at it.
-
Speaking of gun culture let's not forget the fact that, FOR MOST OF ITS HISTORY THE UNITED STATES PROHIBITED ENTIRE DEMOGRAPHICS OF PEOPLE FROM OWNING OR USING FIREARMS AS A DELIBERATE METHOD OF OPPRESSING THEM. No socialist country ever did the same. To this day, there is de facto hostility in mainstream American culture toward minority populations owning weapons. So, who really has the deeper history of oppressive gun "regulation"?
-
People in the highly propagandized West often treat gun regulation in socialist countries as a binary (though this same standard is not applied to capitalist countries). Whenever firearms regulation was introduced in a socialist country, right-wing people often claim that guns were outright 'banned' when in fact they were not. In reality, gun laws were no more restrictive in socialist countries than anywhere else (except post-2008 America), and just like here, they changed all the time based on democratic processes. Sometimes they were more restrictive, sometimes less. An example is the Soviet Union, which passed numerous changes to its gun laws throughout its history, being more restrictive during the Russian Civil War (gee I wonder why), and becoming much more lax in the 1950s and onward. An important question to ask here is, if the country was one that liberalized to capitalism, did the government's attitude toward gun regulation change significa
Thought it would be fun to compile a list of Canadian Firearms manufacturers that I am aware of and support Canadian! Let me know what I missed and I can add it.
Edit: added a bunch from r/TheMightyHerculeast and a few others. Thanks!
Some of these companies are kind of one stop shops with custom work, retail, parts and accessories who make some of their own stuff. I didn’t get into gunsmiths or retail.

... keep reading on reddit ➡I want to compile a list of brands that are only available on Nykaa so that we could annoy them on their social media until they launch on other retailers.
See this if you're new and/or don't understand why I don't like Nykaa
If you know any such brands, please mention them down below and I'll add it to the list and credit you at the end of the post (I can credit ppl along with the brand names but it gets difficult to read, imo😅). Also if I'm mistaken and a brand is available on other platforms let me know that too. If there's a brand you like on this list, please consider messaging them on whatever social media platform you use.
I also added brands that are available officially only on Nykaa but are also available on Amazon/Flipkart because we can't really trust those sellers.
Brands available only Nykaa:
-
Morphe
-
Limecrime
-
Murad
-
Elf
-
Farsali
-
Dr. Barbara Strum
-
NYX (Selected stock on Maccaron)
-
Flower Beauty
-
Too Faced
-
Sally Hansen
-
Dior
-
Hermès
-
Tangle Teaser
-
Charlotte Tilbury
-
Mario Badescu
-
Tony Moly (selected stock available on Maccaron)
-
theBalm - available on Shoppers Stop and Amazon according to their IG but not sure.
-
Kay Beauty (unlikely to happen because they are in partnership with Nykaa)
-
Etude House (Selected stock available on Beautybarn, Maccaron)
Dermalogica - they have their own website

Hi I’m sooo beyond excited to share this! 🌞 I started making this list months ago for myself, documenting every brand that carries a UK GG (US J) cup or larger, since so many brands stop at a UK G and I wanted to see everything that existed beyond that. I was particularly interested in what cup size range each band size REALLY had (e.g. some brands say 28-40 D-K, but only certain bands go all the way to a K). I decided this useful resource had to be shared with all of you!
I constantly see people in this size range saying that they can’t find anything in their size- this list has 60 brands on it! I got you! I also excluded all Polish brands since most of them have their own sizing system and it was too complex to include them, but this means if you can’t find your size on this list or want more style/shape options, you can still try Polish brands! Some popular ones include Ewa Michalak, Comexim, and Gorsenia. (Just do sizing research first.)
This list is simple to use: find your cup size, and all the brands in that category and below are options for you (if they carry your cup size in your band size- you’ll have to read them one by one for this). PLEASE NOTE: I’ve converted every brand to UK sizes.
To make things easier for the more “neglected” band sizes only offered in a handful of brands, I’ve listed those brands right here: (Note that, while all these brands carry GG+ cups, they may not carry them in your band size. I’ve still included them as these band sizes are so hard to find, and I want to help out anyone sub-28 or 50+ who comes across this list.)
22 BANDS: Ellice Lydia
24 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Ellice Lydia
26 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Jules Guam, Katherine Hamilton, Lara Intimates, Molke, Roseanne Scott (also, not a GG+ brand but Tomgirl Apparel)
50 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Goddess, Glamorise, Aviana, Anita, Primadonna, Optifit, Ulla Dessous, Miss Mary, Elila, Smart Glamour, Cacique by Lane Bryant (also, not GG+ brands but Torrid, Playtex, Valmont)
52 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Goddess, Glamorise, Aviana, Anita, Ulla Dessous, Miss Mary, Elila, Smart Glamour, Cacique by Lane Bryant (also, not GG+ brands but Torrid, Playtex, Valmont)
54 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Goddess, Glamorise, Aviana, Ulla Dessous, Smart Glamour, Cacique by Lane Bryant (also, not GG+ brands but Torrid, Playtex)
56 BANDS: Elizabeth Valentine, Goddess, Glamorise, Aviana, Ulla Dessous, Smart Glamour
