all this talk about people not wanting to go back to the office is actually people not wanting to DRIVE to the office…
my commute is a 30m of trees, and fresh air… i don’t really mind coming into the office once or twice a week. most of my colleagues don’t even own a car and we all feel the same way
Cars: bad for the planet, bad for physical health, bad for mental health, bad for urban planning. What are they useful for again?
@coderade @mondoman712 transporting small numbers of people and small amounts of goods over long distances without a predefined timetable in areas of low population density.
Yeah I’m totally for better public transport infrastructure, but it’s disingenuous to pretend there’s no benefits to cars
I’m perhaps exaggerating, but yeah cars have some use cases. They are just aggressively overprescribed as the tool for everything rather than only as needed
making auto companies a lot of money
