I used to do all my work before 10:00 PM on the night shift and then read in between customers at my local gas station. Got chewed out and then decided to do everything slower while taking 5 minute breaks to “restock” the drinks. Overall, I still got my reading and I did less work.

Dipshit manager then says he was proud of me for doing more work. Work culture is entirely vibe based and has literally nothing to do with actual productivity.

Wait. What does Biden have to do with roe v Wade being overturned?

He and the Democrats failed to protect it given ample time and warning. Obama didn’t give a shit and literally said abortion rights weren’t a priority when he was in office. Then Biden, given ample opportunity refused and still refuses to take action to mitigate the decision.

but but seperation of powers and and…

No one gives a shit about separation of powers and what the government is constitutionally allowed to do when it comes to blowing the fuck out of civilians in the Middle East. You’re being a fed a line about how they can’t do shit because they don’t want to set a precedent of helping people in meaningful ways. When it comes to helping the average person, Biden says he has to follow separation of powers and the court’s decision. But when it comes to illegal wars, he doesn’t give a shit. You’re making excuses for people who would literally murder you to keep the economy going, that’s what Covid-19 proved.

I only support Trump in the sense that his wildly illegal actions drive the US Empire into the ground and expose how fucking corrupt and stupid our political system is.

If Hillary was elected, the whole Epstein thing would never have been a media sensation. The only reason it got so big is because dumbfuck Donald doesn’t have the political acumen to avoid shit like this. The more Donald Trump is in power, the more the seams that form this corrupt system start to unravel. I don’t think he’s significantly worse than Biden and Roe V Wade being overturned is proof. Biden is leading us into increasing escalations with China and Russia, continuing the covid deathcult, and presiding over an increasingly shit economic system while doing fuck all to stop it.

Do you plan to run a train through every grocery store, stop to unload at each stop, and still expect to get everything there at the same time?

We don’t live in a wildwest train town. Our cities are not built around trains and unless you plan to literally tear down the entirety of New York it will not work.

Even most delivery vehicles should be replaced by either cargo bikes or by spur lines off the railroad.

I just don’t think it’d be practical to fill entire grocery stores worth of stuff on bikes. You’re not dealing with a few packages of office supplies. You’re dealing with entire warehouse districts worth of stuff having to move across cities. Even with reduced consumption, the amount of people needed to transport that on bikes would probably be more than the local population.

Yep, and that’s why most people should ride bikes and then use public infrastructure as needed. But automobiles are still necessary, unless you mean to bike in all the equipment you’d find in an ambulance.

so a post-personal-car future is still viable

It takes 160,000 bicycles to incur the road maintenance cost of a single personal car.

Are we disagreeing here or are you just mentioning a statistic?

Young Stalin definitely, but I think Lenin aged better. I could definitely see Engels being good for certain subsections of the gay community tbf.
