I’ll put up the usual - You don’t know my needs. Don’t yuck my yum. My truck is necessary.
You buy performance cars. I have a big stupid truck and blow every cent on motorcycles that will never see plates or insurance. We can be friends maybe.

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.

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 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.
- Comment on we are creators 2 weeks ago:
Ditto. But the rest of the travel we do need to do to interact with people, amenieties, 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 guessed.
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.

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?

This level of debate would not be acceptable for children in elementary school. Some of you guys elected the worst kids on the schoolyard to lead your country and think this behavior is okay.
What the ever-loving fuck is going on…

They atole the hearts of everyone who played with them. Does that count?

You could have just answered the question about being dense with a yes.
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
Of course I do. That empathy need not stretch into the loss of a fucking chip. And in front of children no less…
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
Yup. We have had two sets of ratties live with us. After the second set died a few days apart I swore off any more. When their needs are met they are loving, and care for each other, and us, without reward.
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
His day was ruined by his own actions, not the loss of a chip. Are you fucking dense?
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
Not vegan, vegetarian, or even uncommonly attached to animals. But you are a disgusting person. Rats are great. Rats with wings are pretty cool too. Killing stuff that inconveniences you is psychotic behaviour. Simple as.
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
To each their own. But I have had rat friends who were more trustworthy than many humans.

Wow, that is true. As someone who literally lived on the border for my formative years, this is not clear-cut across the country.
In my case, it is a concrete marker in the middle of the forest.

LOL. GTFOH.
- Comment on Canadian Wildfires signal major L over the United States 1 month ago:
My favorite part about all these news pieces is how it’s always mentioned that Canadian wildfires are smoking over the US.
But then the article shares a picture showing hundreds of fires both North and South of the border. Because fire doesn’t give a fuck about your imaginary lines in the dirt…
But somehow the media has to externalize the problem and make it Canadian forests fault that your sky is Smokey and orange.

I probably should. But I’m pretty stubborn when I feel betrayed.
- Comment on Gave him an offer, then took it away. Thanks PayPal. 2 months ago:
Yup.
I had to get it out of my last role but I liked a lot of the people I worked with. So I gave a 60-day resignation. Which would give them time to bring in a new person to fill the role. And give me time to hand over different platforms and processes. And teach him how to do the job.
24 hours later I was laid off on the spot and my accounts all shut down.
Now a month later they have hired a new guy and he’s messaging me on LinkedIn begging for help.
I feel sorry for him. But fuck that…

My front door faces the back by normal standards. The side of our house facing the road has no door. Our one door opens onto the porch, and having that porch face the road instead of the forest would have been ridiculous.
You would not believe the number of people who walk up the driveway, don’t see a door, and get absolutely flummoxed about where to go… The gravel path CLEARLY goes around to the other side of the house, but that is not hint enough. We have had people knock at our bedroom window instead of following the path to find a door.

That is a basic survival worry. I tend to believe that humans faced with real survival issues are less negatively impacted than those who have material worries.
My stress about work is killing me.
My stress about not freezing to death leads me to do things like chopping wood, lighting fires, and maintaining my chimney. Which are all good things.

I bet his friend is never worried about stupid shit.
