"a philosopher king would be so efficient!" no. you are letting your own main character syndrome blind you to the reality of actual dictatorships. the dictator is not one super cool guy whose story is the story of his nation. he's at the top of a pyramid of relationships. nothing more.

A lot of it is also (eminently justified) anxiety that a neighbor or stranger will report you to child protective services if they disagree with how much room to roam you give your kids. So it’s not just your risk tolerance but your theory of mind about the risk tolerance of third parties.

not to go full gen x hose drinker on you, but we walked to school on our own & were allowed to go to the library by ourselves when i was 5 & my sister was 8. the norfolk public library in our neighborhood was the one on hampton blvd. we loved it! it’s sad kids aren’t free to roam anymore.

Yes. My former museum was a county department governed by the county board. When the board changed composition and became much more conservative & $$$-focused (= "tea party"), & started in with the whole "museums should be run like businesses" thing, it all fell apart. (Hence my leaving.)

I've been cogitating about why the term "normie," in a political context, really sticks in my craw. I think it's because it seems very white-and-economically-secure coded. It also really brings to mind the RW "hur dur blue haired feminists" crap. I'm offended by the callous assumptions implied.

I don’t really backpack, I mostly just do sub 10 mile day hikes. I guess for this reason, most of my hiking equipment is just shoes. I have a raincoat, but it’s just my normal raincoat. I don’t have a special hiking raincoat.

If your 1st reaction to #WeekWithoutDriving is “oh, I’ve got this, I get it. I already live car-free/car-lite.” Rewind. Reconsider. Reflect. What if your lifestyle wasn’t actually a choice that you could make but was a fact of your circumstances that prevented you from ever driving yourself?

During the "debate" on gay marriage in Canada I made a rule for myself: don't trust anyone who opposes gay marriage and won't admit their core motivation is either "God say gays are icky", or "I think gays are icky". They always spent so many words trying to pretend it wasn't one of the two.

I think it's bad that kids simply *riding* e-motos are viewed as problematic. What about the high schoolers I see driving trucks and overpowered cars? Or parents in giant SUVs? Both of which are more dangerous. No, no, the kids on e-motos are the real scourge.

Why are dirt bikes being ridden to middle school? How is that allowed?

I know these are e-motos because I see these kids every day on the rail trail. They're not doing anything wrong and aren't even going fast. Are there kids out there riding recklessly? Yup. But kids merely existing on an e-bike or e-moto now makes people mad.

#WeekWithoutDriving day 2: Non-drivers shape their travel patterns around the bus schedule. My bus to work comes about every 25 minutes, so every morning I am going into the office I assess which bus I can take. It varies based on how my daughter gets to school. Another time cost is planning.

Working moms have complex travel patterns that involve drop-offs and pick up and running errands, too. Yes, some Dads do this too, but overwhelmingly it is women who are doing complex trip chains. Part of why I love using our cargo bike is to make this process easier. The route can be very direct.

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

The rights and dignity of homeless people and disabled people are inextricably linked. This is why I get so rabid when people talk about forced institutionalization of homeless people. Disabled people - homeless or not - need to have a say in where they live.
