Liberals gleefully embraced the tool of all these isms when they needed to halt any economic leftward momentum. I guess they never thought the wreckers would wreck beyond their intended purpose.

Go to the psychology today website, enter your insurance and the particular issues you need to address (anxiety, depression, etc), and where is convenient for you. Pick Five, call them all, confirm they take your insurance and schedule an appointment.
You’re dealing with some hard shit, and it’s hard to be patient when you are trying to get better. You’re worth the effort, I promise.

Note that all MARC lines are not the same. The Penn Line runs on tracks owned by Amtrak and is faster and more reliable. The Camden lines runs on tracks owned by CSX and trains can be delayed by "freight interference".

Opposition from the white suburbs will be overwhelming. Anything on this map outside the city line will never happen.

I live by University of Maryland, which is like 5-10 min walk to Camden station. Probably just live close to Camden or Penn if you care about walking distance, or close to the Metro (which goes to Camden)

The heaters can get super hot. You’ll be warm.

Weird. I've taken the light rail end-to-end and it didn't take two hours to do the entire thing.

From what I'm told it was supposed to, but Glen Burnie was the compromise (with the AACO protestors basically all wanting exactly 0 rail in AAC). The rail line that used to go further down to Annapolis has since become the Baltimore and Annapolis trail.

I get you, but if the city has to foot the bill for these why should it subsidize suburban lifestyles?

I think we might see a few of these projects built over the next 10 years..
- The MARC/Amtrak Upgrade plan similar to the 3.5 billion $ Amtrak/VRE upgrade in Virginia. Dedicated tracks and separate tracks for Passenger service along the Camden & Brunswick Lines
- The Baltimore Tunnel replacement for Amtrak , allowing for faster speeds and double the capacity
- Maryland Northeast Corridor Bridge Replacements , allowing for speeds up to 180mph with some curve straightening
- Yellow line extension to BWI Airport station
- Infill Stations on the MARC Penn line in Baltimore
- A switch to EMUs on the Penn Line and DMUs on the Brunswick/Camden Lines
- A Red Line LRT line
- Green Line Extension to Morgan State
- Charles Streetcar replacing the proposed Yellow line from the Harbor to Towson
- Under the Amtrak connects proposal , service to Harrisburg from DC via Baltimore

The existing rail even has roll-on for wheel chairs.

Neighborhoods close to and in walking distance to Penn Station are Bolton Hill, Mt. Vernon and Old Goucher but you have to cross North Ave which can be a little bit sketchy. There’s also a marc train that runs to the Camden Station so if you wanted to live downtown that could be an option.
Edit: And the Station North neighborhood!

More car lanes are not the answer.

Abbey’s Burger (Fed Hill) will probably have the better atmosphere imo.

I got a handful of downvotes with a comment mentioning that inner harbor is safe.

There’s no need to elaborate. “The inner harbor isn’t safe” 🙄 anyone that utters that nonsensical statement clearly shouldn’t be giving anyone advice that should be taken seriously

They’d prefer to drive to their destination, park in handicapped parking, and have a shorter walk. Which is totally fine. No one is forcing you go take public transport when you can drive, lady, it’s just an option for the rest of us…

There are two heaters in each bay, one over the seats and another over the tee, you should be good.
