  • Oh I see. Most of Australian cities are actually suburban and have had wider footpaths than necessary, as well as parking buffers. It’s trivially easy to just convert one side into a protected bike lane.

    I still argue that in a lot of urban areas where the road has swelled to its natural limit, depending on the road, it can be good to reduce the road by one lane and add a protected bike lane. But this is situational. Not every road needs a bike lane. But there should be bike lanes every so often, so people can safely get close to their destination without bothering motorists.

    It’s too much of a mental simulation to imagine how reducing car lanes becomes a benefit to those that must drive because of a reduction of traffic and potential improvement to overall flow.

    Fair enough. I agree that reducing a road by a lane can improve congestion, it isn’t always the case, and isn’t a simple sell.










  • What part of all this is toxic? Who said I don’t have hedonistic tendencies?

    I watch porn. I just waste several hours a week on it. Trust me, I’m going to keep watching porn. I just want to timeblock it a little better, improving my relationship with it.

    Maintaining this kind of lifestyle will likely result in burnout sooner or later.

    Which ones exactly do you think contribute to burnout? Because as I read through it, I can’t think of a single one that does. Maybe journaling if you do it every single day (I don’t).
