Can we just do some of the real common sense stuff? Take a look at optimizing some bus routes, a few more protected bike lanes to connect the network, pedestrianize Market Square, Walnut Street, etc. and then do some cheap traffic calming and tree planting.
Price tag on all this would be very palatable and create a noticeable QOL increase.

it's somewhat common for the doors at the modern to become "exit only" after a certain point in the evening when they want to wind down

Teenie Harris preserved a lot of important visual history that becomes an imperative keystone to a more complete reality of PA - both then and now.

here we go. I remember talking about this in my dorm room but I've never seen it, luckily. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faces_of_Death

Gi-Jin comes to mind if she likes sushi. They have a lot of small plates in addition to the raw fish selections that I think allows to try a nice variety of things.

A nice amenity would be the return of a non-stop flight into the EU. We lost our Delta flight to CDG a while back, and our current flight to LHR requires customs/immigration stops twice to get into the EU.

Haha well it used to mean you killed someone in prison, not sure when that changed. How embarrassing.

Damn. Such a downer. Went there years ago when they had that dude regularly play music while you ate. Super cool experience.

>The teardrop tattoo or tear tattoo is a symbolic tattoo of a tear that is placed underneath the eye. The teardrop is one of the most widely recognised prison tattoos and has various meanings. It can signify that the wearer has spent time in prison, or more specifically that the wearer was raped while incarcerated and tattooed by the rapist as a "property" mark and for humiliation, since facial tattoos cannot be concealed. The tattoo is sometimes worn by the female companions of prisoners in solidarity with their loved ones.

That all could be true, but I wouldn’t know lol. I discovered them as my pandemic go-to Uber eats meal. The arepas and empanadas are unreal. That green garlic sauce that comes with meals is a game changer too.

I had this happen to me on the ohio turnpike years ago. Guy rode next to me for over a mile in the left lane. I just wanted to get away so I sped up and he pulled me over because he said he was pacing me with his speedometer.
Luckily I was a white middle aged guy in a suit going to a wedding, so guy gave me a warning... Asshole.

comments made were in fact tasteless and dumb, but nobody should get in trouble over saying dumb shit online. Good move.

>Why we want to see it
It's kinda important to confront what they do in real, concrete terms. I'm going to watch it and I'm going to share it because that will prevent complacency. We all agree that this is a problem, but people are also perfectly capable of going "Yeah, that's awful. Well, anyway..." and they need to be confronted with what they fail to oppose directly. So yeah, I am kinda looking to be outraged and I'm looking for other people to be outraged as well, but to make this equivalent to the outrage bait of Obama's tan suit, for example, is to say that people shouldn't be outraged when the police murder people. They should. It's not just reasonable, it's a moral obligation to not let the firehose effect convince you to just knowingly ignore this shit.

I understand where you’re coming from and I think it’s a legitimate position to argue why people should watch it. We do not disagree there. What I was trying to get across was that if you’re going to watch it solely out of curiosity and being nosey, probably don’t watch it then if that’s your only motivation. It’s like stopping and staring at a car accident; if you aren’t stopping to help then be respectful and be on your way. I misunderstood the intentions of the comment I was replying to and they gave a thoughtful reply, so being nosey is neither how they’re approaching it nor how they intended the comment to come off.
We both agree that people should be outraged when the police do everything from abuse people to murder them. Some people need to see it happen because they don’t think cops are capable of that level of brutality for whatever reason. Others because they feel they have a moral obligation to bear witness. If that’s the case, do it. All I was saying earlier was if your motivation of watching is solely to be outraged and then do nothing else, perhaps consider where that’s coming from.
I will say, I’m curious why you brought up rage bait media like the tan suit and implied that I was treating them the same. Personally I feel that my original comment was treating this as a serious matter, but if I in any way made that seem otherwise it was not my intent.
