Rich Matthews<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://toad.social/@davetroy" class="u-url mention">@<span>davetroy</span></a></span> I wish you would cross post more content on this platform. I know it not always directly possible as sometimes you are retweeting, but it’s go time with election season and might unfortunately need to be the proper time to flex this platform more.</p>

Rich Matthews<p>So… why are single occupant <a href="https://toad.social/tags/bathrooms" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bathrooms</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/gendered" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>gendered</span></a> in <a href="https://toad.social/tags/public" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>public</span></a> spaces? I was waiting for the men’s room to become available at a small store today, and just decided to head into the other bathroom labeled for women as it was available. Nothing happened, besides hastening my relief.<br />Who’s with me to just make this the normal behavior? If you see a single use bathroom, just use it if you need to.</p>

I’m in IT and have focused on smartphone mobile device mgmt at places like <a href="https://toad.social/tags/FBI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FBI</span></a> and <a href="https://toad.social/tags/BlackRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BlackRock</span></a>. My LinkedIn will tell you I’m currently <a href="https://toad.social/tags/openforwork" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>openforwork</span></a> due to a recent layoff. <br />I enjoy being a <a href="https://toad.social/tags/dad" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>dad</span></a> to two wonderful kids and a husband to a wife that I don’t deserve. I’ve done some things and been some places, including run for <a href="https://toad.social/tags/congress" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>congress</span></a> when I was 28. My political passions have tempered with age, but I am still passionate about <a href="https://toad.social/tags/voting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>voting</span></a></p>
Rich Matthews<p>Well, at this point on <a href="https://toad.social/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>mastodon</span></a> I can’t effectively do the one thing mostly used <a href="https://toad.social/tags/twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>twitter</span></a> for… complaining about <a href="https://toad.social/tags/wmata" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wmata</span></a> metro service. It will need a lot more critical mass and participation from the agency before I can find answers regarding why my train is on fire.</p>
