@sundogplanets My four year old and I did five hours on Vancouver transit yesterday because he finds it fun. Youโve got this!

"Oh my god why do people live in cities?!" I yell to myself as I sit here within walking distance of more restaurants than exist in the entire province of Saskatchewan and an easy bus ride to like 37 world-class museums.
(Yes, I survived the first commute. It was just... a lot... for me, who often works from home and lives half a km from my nearest neighbour.)

@sundogplanets I'm supposed to go to a big city in a few days. I'd rather not. Despite the restaurants and museums.

Hush! Tell them how wonderful city life is. What would Saskatchewan be like if Toronto lived there?
You must be mistaken. I never said that.

@sundogplanets I never thought I was ever gonna be a city girl, but after living in San Francisco for five years, I became one and miss it _every single day_...

@oldclumsy_nowmad I think the -40 and blizzards does a pretty good job of that... but good point!

@sundogplanets @oldclumsy_nowmad That sounds like a valid excuse to own a snow cat... I see no negatives.

@sundogplanets and yet, urban life is probably the main reason for global warming and environmental collapse.

@sundogplanets yeah honestly, cities are a *lot*
on the one hand, there's always sound in the background here, and I can't go naked anywhere in the yard, and the rent will make you cry, and the roads were laid out by 17th-century cattle and 18th-century drunkards
on the other hand, I can disappear into a tunnel a ten-minute walk away, and emerge a few minutes later across the river in the mothra fucking Boston Common. or I can just bike there

@sundogplanets people live in cities because youโve got everything on your doorstep. You donโt need a car. Anywhere that is too far to walk you can get a bus.

How is riding the bus so incredibly exhausting?!!

@sundogplanets with my introvert AuDHD head on?
The constant need to mask, plus being hypervigalant.

@sundogplanets Buses are stressful and a total waste of my time. I can't do anything there - except a conversation if I bring a friend.
No wonder many city people drive cars when they can.

@sundogplanets climbing on the bus is a big vertical for a Saskatchewaner

@aminorjourney @sundogplanets for me it's both those things and then also why is the temperature _always_ wrong?! In one direction or the other but not only wrong but 5-10% into the uncomfortable side of wrong.

@sundogplanets I love transit when itโs not crowded and underfunded, and properly allocated road space like the time of its riders matter; so right now I love e-biking more.

@sundogplanets I feel so used to it. Once you sit down there is no responsibility. Perfect time to listen to a new album, read the news, play a video game, learn a language, or even shop for groceries!
