People need to stop being fucking pussies and actually engage with dumb arguments. It seems people these days are so conflict averse that no one ever speaks up. "We all have our opinions!" Yeah, and sometimes they are stupid.


Yeah, but even things like biking to school. Nothing to do with conflict.

Currently we're a 39 minute walk from school; a little long for a kid at age 8.

We're like a 10 minute drive, in traffic with lights etc, and I think basically a 10 minute bike ride. There isn't a good biking system because the roads are set up like a grid, and there's no walking path through it.

I think for biking culture to thrive you need bike only or bike/ped paths, otherwise you end up having to bike on busy streets or stop at many intersections.

I'm going to try to organize something like a mini bike bus in my neigborhood.
