Lone Pedaler

Hey there, my name is Monique on September 11th, of 2020 I bought a Ford Econoline van E350 and converted it to a camper van. I'm a cyclist who enjoys riding my mountain bike with a little camping on the side. On October 14th 2023 I decided to go FULL TIME van life.

I have several vanlifers of color in my subscriptions, at least five. I was just going to comment that my family used to go to Shaver Lake when I was little, the creator brought back a fond memory. She and her pup are adorable. Check out winterisblu, another adorable vanlifer. Thanks for the advice about the diesel heater.

    @@christinax1257 Why is it when black people make observations about white platforms, white people always come back with snide comments? Black people have been spitting truths about bias towards us for centuries. Now, those truths have come to fruition upon white people too and NOW, some of y'all are starting to believe us. Systemic racist systems affect my people in ways you can't imagine, which is something white people lack, hence the oppression. Why do you think one race held another race down for so long? If it weren't for my American Black ancestors, white society would still be archaic, and that's a compliment because I was gonna say, " Y'all would still be dragging your knuckles on the ground! " So, you don't think the algorithm or AI on these platforms can't be programmed by racist individuals? Do you understand how that would effect Black people on these platforms or target them? Negativity is a white trait.

    I used to have heating problems with my car too, and had difficulty trying to read and decipher the labels to see if coolants and oils and so on were suitable for my car. The store I go to has on online ordering system where I just enter my number plate and it comes up with the full details of my car, and the products displayed show which ones are suitable for my car. So I can select which ones I want and it'll be waiting for me when I get there.

    I think you made a mistake with the title of this video since it has nothing to do with Walmart. Maybe it's supposed to be for another video of yours. This one was about the helpful officer and the overheating issue. Edit: Just checked your channel, and the thumbnail image for this video shows the inside of a store with the caption, "They tried it."
