This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.
I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

An evil distraction
Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.

When Americans were prosperous and Maslow’s hierarchy was realized, we had a revolution
It looks to me like the politicians and those who fund them aren’t going to allow that to happen again without an incredible fight

I organized this article a bit to clarify what suggestions it may have for those of us _not_ having sex. This should apply to couples too since that arrangement is never guaranteed. Seems especially important for men.
VDOSE vasopressin, dopamine, oxytocin, etc.

Is sex good for your brain? This neuroscientist thinks so
From memory to mood, it can boost cognitive function, Nicole Vignola tells Pippa Delyles

A Dutch woonerf, where cars are guests. Through traffic is sent to main roads. Trees, benches & playgrounds calm speeds. Brick paving & raised junctions make it clear - this is a space for people first not cars. Design that creates social, quiet & safe neighbourhoods where kids can bike, walk & play

And that’s the problem. We should immediately stop building for increased parking space and speed and in fact retrofit areas like this for density and actual people instead of something to get “through”.

My opinion: Shared space and 'cars as guests' on 28th Ave
Where I share a road design from Rotterdam and wonder if it could work on a contentious section of NE/SE 28th.

This is Bowser’s typical MO. 2 steps forward and 2 steps back in the name of politics over progress.
Do the whole infrastructure both physically and through incentives, not just enough to make walking and biking more dangerous.

Also of note: the greatest cities in the world are actively removing parking and making their urban cores less clogged with cars and trucks. NYC is doing it. Paris is doing it. London is doing it. These cities are more vibrant, with more business, than they were before changing their ways.
Mayor Bowser proposing repeal of flexible commuter benefits/parking cash-out to remove "Barriers to Business Growth." But what's a barrier to growth? Traffic jams! Lousy bus service, hazardous walk & bike conditions. DC (& cities) thrives as a city with better walk, bike & transit options!

It helps if you’re constantly introspective about your condition and are trying get out of the lifestyle.

I have a lot to say about the resurgent young men / masculinity discourse but for now will confine myself to:
I wish I knew how to convince teenage boys/young men is how little of the world actually requires or even invites the hypermisogynist "tough guy" aesthetic
