First time with one of these? They are pretty cool, yeah

Is this a Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell reference? https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jonathan_Strange_and_Mr._Norrell

Please. Skate shoes + metro.

That’s why you start small, and work up incrementally. Bike lanes are the first step: just make it possible. Next is paths that cut across town to allow bikes (and pedestrians) to avoid roads altogether. Just put them in wherever you can. Eventually you can start connecting them, and gradually it starts to make sense to say “let’s just walk there” or “I’ll meet you there on my bike.”

It’s literally just paint and gravel, and micro zoning. But it helps every step of the way, and it adds up quickly.

Since we’re just sharing anecdotes: I save some time when commuting to my gym, because there’s a path through a bunch of greenery in some public back lot community…greenery area type…thing. Anyway, it’s nice, and the city just put it up a few years ago! I didn’t care at first, but now I take it several times a week.

Also driving a car to the gym only to get on a stationary bike or treadmill there just feels hilariously braindead to me.

Well yeah that’s for a big ol artery - that’s never going away, but within-region is different.

Like I’m not going to take a bike to go visit my brother in the town over. That’s just not appropriate use of the tech

fair

But what if you’re just glancing across the recommended thumbnails and learning things you don’t want to know

Amazon, if I could figure out a way to cost them mad money, like getting AWS Snowball to ship servers back and forth, forever.

Otherwise the Chrome one sounds the best.

I think the porn that’s more geared toward women is better for this type of, I guess, more holistic porn. Not to say that women can’t be into filthy and vapid sex (no hate), but generally speaking that stuff is very easy to find in the vast majority of male gaze-y content.
