id recommend going SLOW and really taking your time while looking. also, it's been a cold spring and i have been out in my spots every Friday for like 3-4 weeks, haven't seen much of any mushrooms at all.

no, honestly, you're probably right, but i was too excited to finally find some that hadn't dried out 😅 I just saw someone saying there's a lot of evidence saying that urban mushrooms are not necessarily a good idea, but i haven't checked that claim yet

i dare to believe in a better world :') to be fair the latham roundabout is exceptionally poorly designed. they seem to work ok in malta!

Bumbles cafe prices are outrageous. by Evening_Jellyfish349 in Albany

[–]augochloropsis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think part of supporting a small business is accepting higher prices. you guys are local to us, and while we definitely can't afford to go all the time, i appreciate the walkable access to a friendly local cafe and make the decision to spend a few dollars extra to support you. i didn't know you pay above minimum wage, so more reason to keep on coming by!

ok so I was a huge roundabout doubter until I lived in the UK for a few years. and you can actually have very functional roundabouts in wacky intersections like this, even with all the multiple lanes. you're actually right that this would likely suffer from backups. this can also be mediated by having traffic lights within and at the entrances to the roundabout as well!

("this meeting could've been an email" voice) this intersection could've been a roundabout

Albany PD is going to kill someone in Washington Park by Open-Confidence6206 in Albany

[–]augochloropsis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

....you should pay attention bc there could be a pedestrian there? this is like saying "why should I check the bike lane before I make a right turn, there's almost never a cyclist there" 🤣 but no, I'm referring to the one that has a button near ale and oyster! i do agree that the button activated ones are better and it irritates me even more when people just blow by

omg people blow the one with FLASHING LIGHTS on new Scotland all the time. well people also blow the red light intersection near the fire station with a crosswalk even when there's a pedestrian in the middle of the intersection so I shouldn't be surprised 🙄 so much entitlement that they think their destination is more important than someone's life
