I love desire paths. There's something so wonderous about seeing an echo of humanity. Depending on it's location, a desire path can mean so many different things.

In a city, like the pic above, they represent rebellion, and efficiency. The messiness of humanity. We like to imagine we're oh so logical and neat so we design our cities to be logical and neat an then real humans literally trample on that idea. The ego required to think you can design something perfect that checks every box. Life is all about compromise and patching stuff when some new problem arises. Though people have certainly tried! Ohio state univeristy let students carve their desire paths, and then paved them over. It looks pretty artsy.

Some people will try to discourage desire paths, but this is almost always going to fail.

Eventually, people just have to accept them. Humans are too dang stubborn.

Certain desire paths are just adorable. A 0.5 second time saver. You just can't design for maximum efficiency, humans will always find shortcuts!

Though on occasion a desire path can actually be the least efficient way...especially if you're superstitious.

In a wilder area, such as below, they show us the curiosity of humans. A desire path somewhere natural often tells you there's something interesting just ahead. (Though remember some ecosystems are fragile and will suffer if trampled! Stick to paths in these sorts of areas)

And how about desire stairs? I always think these look so cool. We get see humans determination to climb, to traverse every kind of terrain.

And for something really crazy...a desire path used for centuries will create a 'holloway'

All of these pics are off the Desirepath subreddit, check them out for more examples! And many thanks to the users who submitted these photos.

I have to laugh (or I’ll cry) when abled people are like “Wait, disability benefits are that low???? How does the government expect people to survive?” They don’t. They don’t expect us to survive. They want us to die. I am incredibly lucky and privileged enough that I can live with my parents without working. But if I couldn’t, I’d die. I cannot work full time and the application process for the pitiful amount of disability that I could get is incredibly difficult and humiliating. Abled people, if you want to be allies, please don’t chase after the whole “differently abled” or “abled in other ways” bullshit. We are disabled and the government wants us to die for it. Please focus your energy and activism there.

I've been fighting for 7 years to get my pathetic amount of disability money, It's not easy to get in the first place and they barely give it away. They were going to give my friend with MS 200$ a month.

200$.

[beaniebaneenie]

If any of you fuckers even THINK about writing in the name of this tiger on a single midterm ballot, a year after an attempted and NEARLY SUCCESSFUL coup staged by facist terrorists working with a sitting president, I swear to all the old gods I will hunt you down and replace all your shoelaces with cooked pasta.
