What is a streetcar for? A street guitar for is a force on the streets, beyond the road, beyond the pavement.
The critical issue of being in a car, in an automobile, in a truck, whatever… Is that it puts you on equal putting with all of these other cowards.
For example, being here in LA… Now here in Culver City, I am the GOAT of the streets.  Everybody knows me; they know me and my iconic 60 pound weight vest, how I am always walking around in public with Seneca, and also walking around with my iPad Pro.
Now as a consequence, I feel a sense of ownership of the road. Or the streets. 
For example, any skinny fat loser in a car, especially when behind you, could honk at you, for not driving immediately half a second after the light turns green, or, throw you the middle finger because you stuck at your arm to know them to calm down.
Assuming that street Fatar fee is truly your prime passion, I think then the simple goal is dual: first, never drive a vehicle to get anywhere, and also don’t ride a bicycle. I’m all about bikes in general, but the truth is when you ride a bicycle, it is very dangerous, especially with these crazy distracted drivers in LA.
And also, the downside of a bicycle is that walking is at least 10,000 times superior to even riding a bike.  Why? When you walk, it is far superior for your legs, your back, your hips, your shoulders your tendons etc. 
And also, once again… It is very common to get road rage, if you are in a car, or in a bicycle, or a motorcycle or a moped etc.
However, when you are naked in the streets, without your 5000 pound metal vehicle encasing you, then, you really do put people at a position of true valor. 
Being naked on the streets.
So I think the first issue here is that most people when they’re walking in public, are a bunch of cowards. What the typical loser millennial does is they try to in case themselves with a shroud of cowardice; they do this with walking any opportunity of interaction with strangers;, Pros, Hitler mustache, or facial hair,  focus on their dog or pet, busting out their iPhone, wearing heavily tinted sunglasses, wearing a baseball cap, and frumpy clothing etc.
A very simple thing you could do is for an entire day, within limits of reason,  is for the entire day, never step into a car a vehicle… Just do 100% pedestrian walking day! And the assignment is anytime you cross paths with a stranger, or somebody on the road, wave high to them, give them a peace sign, a thumbs up, a simple head, or say hello!
I think the issue in today’s world most people are always in their cars, it is easy to vilify or dehumanize other human beings on the road.
However when you’re on the streets, it is very very easy to judge people. You could judge their height, their sex and gender, their body mass percentage, their clothing choices etc.
For example, any pre-diabetic old man, and a loser portion 911 convertible could honk at you from behind, because you did not go on the green light and half a millisecond. But if you saw the man on the street, would he dare to do this face-to-face, especially if he is only 5 foot four, old and fat, and you are 6 foot tall, tall dark and handsome? of course not.
Building social courage
Honestly nowadays, I’m sorry I think that street photography is almost 100% courage.  my bread and butter workshop for the last 15+ years has been my conqueror your fears of shooting street photography workshop, because it is resistant to all technology, media, platforms etc. I think any normal human being, in modern day times, and also in the past present and future will have to deal with Social anxiety, cowardice, courage, risk and reward etc.
For example… Now walking around town with my 60 pound weight vest, I command a sense of dominance. Even police officers are impressed by me, because I think their bulletproof vest may only weigh 10 or 20 pounds, whereas mine is 60. And I’m also starting to see… When I see police officers up and close in the flesh, without sunglasses on… A lot of these guys are actually not that fit, not very intimidating, etc. Often younger than me, and certainly less tall, muscular and fit.
I think when we think of cops, in the modern day media term, I think Oliver knowledge comes from television media etc. Television media etc., typically a cop is a male Caucasian man, insanely buff, tall, dominant. But I’m starting to think… The problem of media, if you want to look dominant on the screen, 99% chance they’re on steroids, to give them that dominating on screen presence. 
For example, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rambo, Sylvester Stallone, the rock; all on steroids and the juice. 
Now the reason why this becomes a problem is that steroids become normalized; I’m starting to think that Chris Hemsworth who played Thor was probably most certainly on steroids when he got his super jacked physique for the Thor movies, just look at him about 10 years later, he is pretty wimpy looking.
Also, John Cena, who was super jacked for the fast and the furious movies, but in hus more recent roles,  he is starting to look very skinny. Even the rock, seeing him in the Baywatch movie, why is his legs and his calves so skinny? 
Also I would not be surprised if Zac Efron took some sort of steroids to get into his role for certain movies etc. 
Why this matters
This matters because men, boys, adults, alike… We often equate ourselves with people who we see on the big screen, superheroes, marvel superheroes, Disney YouTube etc. But the big prom here is if everyone else is on steroids, in secret… You will give you a false version of reality, in which You in vain to get similar monstrous gains, but end up not looking like them?
This is where I think media is so pernicious; Once again, it gives us a distorted and warped view of reality, which is not centered around real physics, or real biology. Don’t trust any movies cinema or film.
Even the movie 300, all these guys who got super jacked, especially the Spartans in the background, seeing their massive 8 pack abdominals — if you’re just a movie extra, there’s really no downside to taking steroids to look more jacked. To get the role.
Walking
One of the thoughts I had this morning is my two passions include walking and weightlifting. Then, how can you combine and integrate both of them?
First, 60 pound weight vest, and just walking around town. The second is focusing on weightlifting activities which allows an encourages walking and movement. For example, Farmer’s carries, or any sort of weightlifting activity which encourages you to walk and move while lifting the heavyweight.
Even with Santa, at the age of 3 years, four months old…   he might wait around 40 pounds now, and I could spend a whole day easily just arm carrying him around town.
This is my thought with if you are a father, my simple suggestion is get rid of the stroller, either or ergo baby carrier the kid in the front, or just arm carry the kid!  First, the benefit is you become more muscular jacked and swole, and also your kid gets the beneficial upside of being outside in the elements! 
It looks like my training of Seneca is working; everyone mistakes him for a four or five-year-old, and his 100% beef, beef burger patty diet is also working;  he is much taller, stronger, and buffer in the arms and thighs compared to other kids I see on the playground who are all wimpy and anemic working, all these other kids are fed too many Cheerios, not enough meat.
And also, a tragedy, when I see young boys being raised by Spanish-speaking nannies, rather than their fathers.
In fact, I think the early years are so critical, especially if you have a son. For you to train and breed them and grow them in such a way which reflects your own personal morals ethics and worldview.
The spartan way.
Simple ideas
If you are person or a human being, who has the option of either raising your kids yourself, versus having somebody else raise your kid, raise your kid yourself! You could just do the sacrifice of being 100% caretaker of your child until they go to transitional kindergarten or whatever. This is what I have done, with great upsides.
I think the great tragedy is when you have young male children, being raised by female Latina women who themselves are most likely immigrants, and also not in great shape.
Certainly everyone has the right to raise their kids however they want, but I seek to raise an elite child, the new Spartan boy.
Male standards
To me all children are universally beautiful, all children I love, they always put me in a good mood etc. Yet the big downside here is that once again, you’re not having men raise the boys, you’re having women raise the boys. Certainly there’s no issue with that, but the male attitude of raising a boy versus having a woman raise a boy will be starkly different. 
For example, have you ever seen a male nanny? No! I’ve seen a bunch of different nannies, all women. 
In regardless of what all of this modern day gender politics and sociology said, biological men with testicles and testosterone and a penis will certainly be different than a biological female with ovaries, a menstrual cycle, and a vagina. 
The benefit of literature over movies and films
With literature, for example reading the Iliad… Will be 1 trillion times better for your imagination creativity rather than watching a prepackaged movie and film which is centered around fake metrics of success, which include box office numbers, profit etc. Ancient Greek literature had no profit, the motive was to create truly great literature and stories, which would ideally last forever.
And also, let us consider that the past  there was no such thing as advertising, news or media.
The only type of news you would get was in your local towners Square, just talking shelf with other people in the flesh. And this becomes useful because you could see the veracity or the trustworthiness of the individual… Would you trust a cracked out homeless person telling you about the modern day? Certainly not.
And also nowadays, ChatGPT, the paid premium one…  it is impossible to know whether something was produced by ChatGPT or not. It has superseded the touring test, and in fact, for the most part ChatGPT is more eloquent, interesting, and better than you.
This is where I think that the literature or the words the future will be more random, this dumped, un functional, and also, based around the personal real life opinion, rather than proper grammar spelling etc.
In fact, I have created my whole empire over blogging; which has zero to do proper grammar, rules of composition etc. Yet I might be the first millionaire street photography blogger that has ever existed, the only useful things I learned through K-12 education was the general rules of spelling and grammar, but beyond this, I got straight B’s in all of my English classes– yet now, I know more ancient Greek and Latin etymology than the average academic or scholar. 
Self erudition is the best erudition
The difficult task of having kids memorize stuff and remember it, then re-recite it is that if you’re being forced by a teacher to do something or learn something or remember something, you won’t. Why? The only way to remember something is when you are personally curious about it, you are personally invested in it, etc.
Autotelic — to pursue something purely for the sake of it, or for the sake of your curiosity, not for the sake of some sort of political social economic payoff. Even the Mars Rover is simply called “curiosity“;  there is not really a huge material payoff of exploring Mars, you will not find any Martians or extraterrestrial beings, you won’t find precious minerals, or water. I think we humans would like to explore simply for the sake of it; **our own personal curiosity which is antifragile! **
The more you try to squelch your curiosity, the greater it will become.
This is where I encourage you to indulge any of your curiosities, irregardless of how bad, evil, immoral it is; if you don’t pursue your curiosities, it will hunt your dreams and your mental space.
Often when I pursue my curiosity, and I find a semi good answer to my curiosity, it helps me quiet my mind, and refocus on other stuff.
When in doubt, just pursue your curiosity!
Think hygiene, basic rules of hygiene 
Sure it is fine for homeless people go to the library, if they don’t observe basic rules of hygiene, they are not allowed to enter.
Maybe you can have some sort of machine which could smell you?
