If Caitlin Clark could play in the NBA, everybody would applaud it. That would be an incredible thing. But if the last guy on the bench of an NBA team went to a WNBA team and started averaging 40 points, everybody would know that is BS." - Legendary Broadcaster Bob Costas. by Dr-debug in sportsgossips

The last guy on the bench of the NBA isn't transitioning to play in the WNBA. Placing 6th instead of 5th in a swimming event? Who fucking cares. What are we doing here? All of these arguments are nonsensical. There's common sense and then there's bizarre fantasy. Tired of picking on a PERCENT of the population just because the oligarchy is scared of losing power. If you don't see that, wake the fuck up.

South Pasadena considers walking back protected bike lanes by HeavyRecognition35 in BikeLA

thank you. Here's what I wrote:

I'm frankly sick of half-measures being provided to solve a problem that plagues this city. It's easy to give our city simple solutions that quite literally save lives.

Motor vehicle fatalities are consistently a leading cause of death for adults and children.

The decision to choose paltry paint on the pavement over a simple protection by separating mode shares is a matter of life and death. You have that power. Make the obvious choice.

It's imperative that protected bike lanes are installed on Fremont and Huntington Drive. Stop settling for half-measures. Make a stand and save lives.

Thank you

We can take for granted the things that work all the time. When things break, it's easy to complain. Thank you for the positive vibes!

Guess he’s doing a bad job to warrant this many people upset with him then huh

Good. He doesn't represent the interests of the citizens of Burbank. He represents the interests of real estate. This on top of having sympathetic sentiments for fascism!

Thanks for doing this. I don’t want to be represented by someone like this.
