Fair enough. Cheers.

I don’t think I understand your point here.

I was talking about my experience which is 80% in North America. Your points do not apply in North America as we have actually been getting worse for non-car travel in most cities since the 90s.

And that’s without even mentioning the atrocities that are considered inter-city or city-rural travel.

I am merely intending to show how ‘just saying someone’s name’ can be taken as a reprimand/mild reproach. Which is what is happening in the original image.

At this point so many people have explained this that I feel you might be willfully ignorant. Cut it out.

Mom: Ok, let’s get in the car, time to go.

Child named Brian: But there is no car.

Mom: Brian!

Not in Canada. Not in the US.

Over here we are actively gutting existing bicycle infrastructure to please the right wing morons

We actually did live in switzerland back in 2020 (I know, schengen is not EU) and were about to lease a home in France, but someone in my family fell ill and I had to come back to Canada.

The transit, grocery , pharmacy, and cultural access was amazing to us, even in times when locals were complaining of severely limited services.

Also Canada where the majority of my experience comes from. If I could see some my taxes going towards a Euro-style infra for moving people and things I would be a much happier person overall.

Ditto. But the rest of the travel we do need to do to interact with people, amenities, and services, is still worse than it should be due to poor inter-city and city-rural transit. At least here in Canada. My time in Europe showed me how bad we really have it. Even with the unavoidable foibles that happen in the best of cases/countries.

I was referring to the city planners as @EtherWhack@lemmy.world correctly surmised.

I also have worked from home* for almost two decades. But the non-work travel is still stained by the horrible planning in most urban sprawls.

* For various strange definitions of “home”. From a campground to an RV on a lake, and apartments in Switzerland to rotting farms in Alberta.

And since then - We have found ways to make all travel worse for comfort, more expensive, and more necessary.

Not that I believe this is real in any way. But there are ten chairs at that table. His interview could be like those predatory knife MLMs where they pack the room full of idiots to find the one apex idiot.

Schedule:

Ten at a time. Ten minutes each.

Even if you space them out to the top of the hour you have time for a long lunch where you can commend yourself about being a drain on your species while staring at yourself in the bathroom mirror of a cracker barrel where you are scoping out some poor underage girl to molest verbally.

Wait… What were we talking about?

My family doc unironically told me that adults can’t have adhd, and kids grow out of it. I don’t even know where to start.

You could have just answered the question about being dense with a yes.

His day was ruined by his own actions, not the loss of a chip. Are you fucking dense?
