    Where is that space coming from?

    You can literally add separated light rail in the center and bike lanes next to the sidewalk and there would still be two car lanes left, one for each direction.

    What about areas where buildings are too close to the street to allow this?

    This street is too narrow to add a dedicated sidewalk, right?

    Which is why the blue square sign is there: The speed limit on this street is walking pace and pedestrians have priority on the entire road.

    Therefore: Put bicycle lanes wherever possible, reduce the speed limit where it isn’t.










  • It’s weird, I absolutely adored Tunic, it’s one of my favorite games of all time, yet Outer Wilds was just “alright” for me? Like IGN 7/10 good but nothing to write home about.

    Part of that was probably because I felt constant nausea due to being unaccustomed to playing 3D games with controller - the fact half of the game occured in space with two additional axis of rotation significantly worsened it.





  • Note that just because Marx said something doesn’t mean you should treat it as a gospel.

    Marx lived from the early 19th to the late 19th century and didn’t witness WW1. Since then, the military has become almost infinitely more powerful compared to Marx’s days, where armed workers stood an actual chance against the military. Nowadays though? Not even remotely. Shut off the internet and electicity in a region, ban the press from reporting, send in the military and wipe out any protest, regardless of how many arms there are. Just take a look at Chechnya and how well they’ve been doing after declaring independence.


    The US is an exploitative capitalist country despite having an awful amount of guns.

    Northern European countries are significantly less exploitative, while still capitalist, countries without nearly as many guns.

    The amount of arms in worker’s hands and the severity of capitalism has no relation anymore. Hell, by having so many guns, the US can reasonably argue for ever greater police budgets without much backlash. You wouldn’t want children to die in school shootings, would you, you monster?
