I think the sign must have blown down then. Will double check on my way home today!

Yeah...
If we're gassing up the chopper for the sole purpose of telling kids to get out of closed pools... sure, that's pretty messed up and sounds horribly wasteful. I'd bet it's more of a side task that they swing by to accomplish after completing their main goal though.

Or there are some local Discord servers.

I guess I thought you meant something else? This is what it looks like today
Edit: because it’s the internet I want to clarify that I am not arguing. Just trying to understand what you mean because if we’re talking about the same intersection I also agree that it sucks!

Yeah, one house isn’t going to make or break the community. But centering the community around pedestrians (and bus riders and cyclists and so on) is what keeps it alive. The more we give up to parking lots, the less lively Hampden will be.
If anything, we should be reducing the number of cars in and around the Avenue. Make the street one-way for cars. Use the parking spots for outdoor dining.

Maybe flip the one-way street at Hickory and close off 36th from Hickory to Chestnut?

There is no left turn sign on the signal line, which I think is the issue. People are looking at the light not the road or the median.

The summons date was in Oct 2021, and they didn't call me again until late 2022.

There is a left turn only sign there! The right lane has a combined squiggle for straight and right turn. It’s just shitty design and nobody abides by the signage.

Baltimore he wayyyy too many two lane turn lanes and slip ways. This one is is among the worst. Can y’all tackle the light to Pratt slip way signage next? Nobody knows if there are three lanes to Pratt or 4 lanes to Calvert. (There’s 2 to Pratt and 4 to Calvert)

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! Unfortunately we're not doing the kind of study that it sounds like you're looking for. However, we can give you the number to our sleep clinic to which we often refer participants with sleep complaints. I hope you reach out and explain to them your situation and they can coordinate with you.
Here is the number: 410-550-6337
Best wishes!

Seriously. It's sort of gone beyond ableist privilege into straight absurdity. I'm a healthy adult and I live about a half mile from there, so it's well within walking distance for me - if I'm getting a bottle or two. But once you get up to a case (which is about the only way I buy beer), then it starts getting kind of cumbersome. A case + something else starts is pretty awkward regardless of the distance.

It's really the only hotpot I recommend to people. I've been to a few in the area, generation hotpot in towson, the hub(next to Iron age in Catonsville) and hot pot hero is really the best option with food choices and how nice the experience is with using the TouchPad

Oh yeah, most people don't realize the majority of wild animals lives end in some horrifying ways.
They also do help with the youth becoming engaged with wildlife. The more people we raise who care about conservation the better.

Yeah. And they do a ton of research to try to help species in the wild as well.
Plus, life as a wild animal often fucking sucks so that helps me feel a bit better about it.

Which edition of D&D?
I'm a "Forever DM" that hasn't played since the summer of 92, and honestly only know Pathfinder 1st, and older editions. (also WoD, Rifts)

Tearing down one dumpy house next to a parking lot isn't going to fracture the community. JFC

Yeah, some have some great purposes. I'm a transplant in Tampa of 8 years and the local zoo has a marine recovery unit for injured manatees. Makes me feel less sad when visiting. Seeing bears that were "nuisances" moved from places like MT makes me feel guilty. These animals have so little territory now.
Edit: I can't type on my phone

If you want to build me a driveway, I'd happily let you park in it while you wait your turn in one of the 4 spots in their lot.

I've done Brew at the Zoo in the past prior to COVID, I'd recommend that one also.
They basically line the perimeter of a field with food/beer trucks, vendors, and bring in live music, then have handlers come in with a bunch of different animals. You can also just walk into the regular zoo at any point if you want.
I assume it's still pretty much the same deal, but it's been a few years since I've been.

You can sign up for their newsletter. They often promote heavy discounts for the events way ahead of time.
