Also Uber just sucks. It’s a private for profit solution (that lost money for years) to transit, which should be a public problem to work on.

Conservatives are like toddlers. Emotion driven to the point of having no mapping to reality, truth, and causality.

But if you so much as joke about how maybe we should shoot a couple republican leaders well that’s inappropriate violence is BAD, but only when it’s visceral and fast. Slow deaths are cool, I guess.

Owning or renting a home has the same requirements of dependency on multiple companies

Are you suggesting people go without homes? And that’s analogous to going without a car?

Maybe you’re really radical and want free public housing like people want free public transit, but that’s far outside the overton window.

DeSantis is a sack of shit and I hope he gets flushed down a toilet.

happy to pay some money for mobility in exchange for all that.

Most of the costs are probably externalized and not paid for by you

Also good neighbors vs bad neighbors isn’t intrinsic to city vs country. You could easily have a neighbor out there that shoots guns unsafely , or feeds bears, or whatever. I had a whole DND crew here in the city that we could walk to each other’s places.

But this is kind of getting off the topic of cars aren’t the freedom people say they are.

Does New York City and its transit systems not exist in your world?

I realized this very quickly when I moved to the city. No longer had to worry about parking, gas, insurance, how to get home when i’m tired or drunk. It’s pretty great.

Poe’s law is dead and I can’t tell if this is a joke.

No one I know wants to go into the office just-because, but they also don’t want to starve. When the choice is yield or die, it’s not much of a choice.

I really dislike that the incompetent dolts who can’t adapt to the internet are dragging everyone else down. I don’t want to be in an uncomfortable office, losing hours a day to a commute, so someone can walk up to me and say “Hey” instead of using slack.

You know what works stupidly well? Get the biggest shield in the game, and a poke weapon.

You can poke through Malenia’s self-heal. It takes a little longer than dodging, but it’s far safer.

Consort Radahn with a big shield is a joke. Took 4 minutes, two tries. The first try failed because I didn’t see where he was coming from when he did his nuclear sky bomb attack.

Whatever it is, most people don’t engage with it.

the well? they’re great. friendly at their shows too.

Not by going directly for a moonshot at the presidency. You spend years getting people involved in local politics, then work your way up. State and local governments have power, even if it’s “boring”.

That or a coup or other violent, abrupt, wildcards.

I imagine there are some “written in blood” laws and regulations that apply to hotels that airbnb is ignoring, too. That should also be addressed.

I read that airbnb lead to rents rise, because it made it so easy for landlords to run their property like hotels. I don’t use them, and kind of think lowly of people that are like “well it’s convenient so i don’t care”.
