My experience is that the best food (at any price range) I’ve eaten in both places is similar quality, but a randomly selected European restaurant will absolutely smoke a randomly selected US one.

Listen, there's a lot going on, but I have a totally unrelated question that'd be fun on here. My kid LOVES watching stuff being made: time lapse videos of home construction (bonus for explanatory voice over), ceramics throwing, etc. Got anything to rec in that vein?

Biking in a car-brained city means you have to carefully check every maps route for places where there’s technically a bike lane but there’s no way it’s safe to use. Every new destination is a careful maps study or a text to someone who lives near it.

Doing preschool pickup by car: “noooooo I’m not READY nooooo.” Doing preschool pickup by ebike: “put my helmet on me it’s time to go.” Fully converted to the cargo bike cult.

I’m looking at e-bikes. They’re great. Way better than an electric car for my needs, road wear, air quality, everything. Also completely unsubsidized! If I bought an e car I could get $7500 back! With the bike, nah it’s your own problem you LUXURY BIKER.
