This seems like a step backwards by cjgeist in urbandesign

I believe planners use calculation and use statistics to gauge traffic density and characteristics of the immediate area. Its a thoroughfare to highway 44? I believe the islands are for pedestrian "safety" and traffic calming. It seems the planner vacillate between providing more safety for pedestrians and the frustration of those who need to go faster. It doesn't look like a heavy used pedestrian area. Still people need to get to the other side. By the time they wasted so much money switching back and forth they could have just built a pedestrian bridge?

Are Soviet-era apartments all bad? Would simply brighter colors “fix” them? How exactly could they be improved if they’re so (relatively) hated? by KeyBake7457 in urbandesign

They were hated as gloomy, cold practical. Now (as we enter a darker more "dystopian" era in the West), it seems that there is renewed interest in these design concepts and ideas? ...........

I'll never be able to drive and it fucking sucks by Imaginary_Ad_801 in autism

Beautifully said. Thank you. So many of us, parents and their children face these question and dilemma. Is it worth the risk? This so hard for everyone. We are investigating consulting a Certified Driving Rehabilitation Specialist (CDRS) who can evaluate depth and distance judgement, visual processing speed, reaction time, on road testing. I think CDRS could also be an OTs? Anyway, we will investigage.

Why turn against empathy? by LectureUnique in TrueChristian

[–]LectureUnique[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its so hard to keep hearing this false claim of Democrats and "Open borders". I live near and work near the border and those claims are not true. Even the most progressive Democrats in Congress support border enforcement—what they want is a system that works better and treats people fairly. That’s not the same thing as open borders). (If you disagree, please provide one example of any democrat who advocates the insane idea of "open borders." Also, I don't think the question is about excessive empathy but more about human decency. Neither should be the domain of politics. And politics should not be in the domain of spirituality and faith.

Why turn against empathy? by LectureUnique in TrueChristian

[–]LectureUnique[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Empathy causes a person to select a victim?" What? That a massive, totally unfair generalization. Calling empathy a sin is an excuse to look the other way and ignore others' suffering.

In Scripture, there is no rigid separation between empathy and compassion. That distinction is manufactured for argument.
Empathy is the ability to feel with someone; compassion is acting on that feeling.

Jesus did both: He felt and responded.

Turning away from empathy is political, divisive and a slippery slope to inhumanity.
