Hyperfixates on hobbies and local things. Loyal but anxious. You can either find me inside making sourdough/reading/crafting or outside walking/biking and calling out infrastructure failures. Walking on IG as speedhumpme
Since I walk so many places, I should really post more photos here. Guess the neighborhood (and bonus points for the street)

Posting about the toilets the pope may have used over on IG lost me 1 follower but gained me 3 so my work here is done. I try to keep the speedhumpme account a mix of pedestrian advocacy, history, fun facts, curiosity, and (as the name suggests) the rough or crude parts of the city.

It’s Compton Heights leaf cleanup day and you should just avoid the entire neighborhood. It’s the most chaotic day of the year every year and you’d think I’d just stay home but I never learn.

Anyone been noticing more vehicles at the closed fake-Paul McKee hospital lately? I drove by yesterday and saw 5 security vehicles (slightly up from last visit), the jersey barriers on Thomas were moved, and there was a dumpster being filled out back. 👀
