We live in a high transit city. Some colleagues live in the suburbs and can’t get that we don’t have a car.
Yeah, I commute into work both by car or train, depending on the day. On the days I take the train it's so much better. Just zone out listening to music or playing on a steam deck, no need to worry about keeping an eye on the road.
Same! I take the metro, rented bikes, and walk to get pretty much everywhere. I have a car, it’s a sportscar that I’ve been to the track woth several times and maintain myself. I’m a better driver than them, even in the commuting sense, and I know far more about my expensive purchase than they ever will, and yet their the ones screeching about their bullshit “war on cars” that isn’t even real.
I’ll never go back to needing a car to do basic daily life things, it’s fucking horrible and I don’t know why anyone would want to live like that.
