- Qem 1y agoI wonder how much are cars contributing to the current fertility crash. The multi-ton metal projectiles that clog the streets and we call cars make the urban landscape hostile to children. They can't be raised "free-range", demanding constant micromanagement from parents indoors.

She had the right of way, but I inwardly cringed and hovered my hand over my horn button, just anticipating that a vehicle was going to turn without seeing her. Fortunately she made it through OK.
