i mean you can just wipe yourself down with a wet towel or some wet wipes, yeah it's not supremely convenient but it really shouldn't be any sort of a dealbreaker.

I would need a whole different city. Most days here if I spend 30 minutes outside in the shade I am a sweaty mess.

There are some employers where I could shower on premise, but not most. And most of the places I've lived a bike ride would be 1-6 hours. I think I lived half and hours bike ride from work maybe 1 year of the past 10.

i support alternate means of transportation and would love if our cities were designed for walking but i’m not biking to work for 30+ min in 101 degree 70%+ humidity weather
