Bicycle network design should intentionally minimize the number of times a person cycling must stop to maintain efficiency, unnecessary stop signs included.

For thousands of years, fermenting beer was considered a household task for #women.
By the Middle Ages, some sold beer at English markets. Female brewers wore tall, pointy hats to be easily spotted. They stood by cauldrons & often had cats to keep mice away.
Sound familiar? It should.
You see, when male brewers felt threatened, they accused the women of witchcraft. These rumors may have led to some witch iconography we still recognize today.

Takeaways from my first week here:
1. I am still very new here and have much to learn
2. Hashtags are your friend. Follow them. Use them. Capitalize each word in them
3. You will miss things, and that is the point.
4. For people you don't want to miss, click the bell in the profile or make some lists
5. Boost. Boost. Boost.
6. It is nice to make connections and not chase an algorithm
7. People seem to be happier here
8. Always add descriptions to your images
