I...don't know what to think about their intentions. And the post office lie was weird.

I've got a ton of recs and notes from an abandoned trip of my own. I'll send it to you over email!

One of my absolute favorite episodes of the year. I cannot wait to listen to it on my way to my New Year's party.

I blocked the phrase "hope this helps" because its smugness drives me crazy

What's this from?

I think, to me, it comes down to, "what would make a reader stumble less while reading?" I think closing up the whole adjectival phase with hyphens is smoother for a reader since it joins the whole phrase together.

I went back and forth on this. In my mind, without the "only," it'd be a "local-access street"; "local-access" is a compound adj. "Only" modifies the compound adj but isn't a part of the original compound adj, hence the en dash. But all the words together form a larger compound adj modifying street

Similarly, the first sentence of the image you shared should be "Transit- and local-access-only streets are urban streets..."

(Again, using an en dash after "local access" if you wanted to be nitpicky)
