    Yes, and that amount of power is frustratingly small, even if you’re an elected official.

    If I listened to you I’d be out painting guerilla bike lanes on that stroad. That would be exercising power in an non-frustrating way.

      I mean no, that’s not “listening” to me. That’s not what I said. That’s in fact a strawman.

      You are allowed to feel uncomfortable and frustrated. That’s how you learn tolerance and patience. It’s okay to be frustrated. Try edging or ruining your orgasm some time. You won’t die from it.

      Yes, the entire point is that NO ONE should have huge amounts of power. Your power should be relatively small. Why do you personally get to dictate bike lanes?
