The rules vary by state. Some do.

That’s great! Hopefully it continues to behave for you - I rescued an ‘87 750 Virago many years ago, and it was a quirky bike to get tuned properly, but a neat little project.

Try this link for a wiring diagram:

That looks like exactly what happens when a connector has too much current passed through it, and it is not uncommon for motorcycles to suffer this kind of failure from loose/corroded connections. Unless you grounded your welder to one of those components instead of part of the frame near your weld, though, there’s no path for electricity through there from a welder. I still suspect you coincidentally found an existing problem, but fortunately all of those components can be fairly easily checked with a multimeter. Start eliminating possibilities with a wiring diagram for your bike, and a service manual, if you can find one.

Not related to welding on the frame, no current goes through the part in question. Either something got damaged moving stuff around or there’s a bad/disconnected part of the electrical system. Check a wiring diagram for things like kickstand switch, kill switch, etc. These can cut spark. Also check all your grounds and weatherproof connectors.

FWIW, this was an issue in my neighborhood, but since the neighborhood streets are city owned/maintained, not private, the HOA rule was declared unenforceable since it’s a public street with no special parking restrictions. It was pretty straightforward once that was clarified.

It is almost certainly a legal issue, and not their choice, but I am surprised this would not have been explained to you if it is the case. There are states in the US, including the one I am in, where it is explicitly illegal for school staff to use any names or gender references other than the ones provided/approved by the parents in your record, even in private. It is entirely possible they have no choice here.

Not OP, but a thing I am pretty heavily involved in. It depends a lot on the community you’re in and the culture around it, and my experience is that most people who practice kink in a community setting also consider it an integral part of their sexual life, but not exclusively so. There are many that approach it as a connective practice that focuses on power exchange, communication, and sensory exploration as much or more than as a form of purely sexual gratification. The kind of intimacy and connection that you cultivate with mindful, consistent kink, even if not explicitly sexual, often cultivates a safe environment for negotiating and potentially exploring sexual chemistry with a partner if the feeling is mutual.

Generally, it’s considered normal for sexual boundaries or interests to be a part of negotiations when you’re exploring a kinky connection with someone, however it is rarely a deal-breaker in my experience if either partner isn’t interested in that, nor is it often the primary thing being negotiated. I have a few partners that I regularly do kinky things with and also have sex or do sexual things with. Many of the people in my community do consistently integrate kink with sex, but most of what goes on in public or semi-private spaces are non-sexual scenes.

Even if so, nothing short of level 4 plates would have stopped a rifle round with that much energy. Handguns, sure, but he didn’t appear to be wearing a plate carrier.

It’s more tightly controlled outside the US, in my experience. I think other heath agencies are quite aware of its risks

Don’t even bother with glass. That’s hella old tech for PLA printing. PEI sheet is the only way to go.
