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 it’s 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!

@sundogplanets for me busses are worse for nausea. i love me a good tram or train.

"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 turned out to be a city girl, which is so odd to me. I do still get nauseated even seeing movies where there are large office buildings full of windows, and people behind every window, all stacked on each other, separated by the confidence of architects, and yet I traipse over to doctor offices on the 7th floor, or the 6th floor, in a giant multi-building campus. My house is a sweet little single-story lady from 1925, and it's my decompression chamber.

Prof. Sam Lawler In the same way that some people used to say “1000 channels, yet there’s still nothing on TV”, I’ve said “there’s nothing to eat in Victoria”. (jokingly of course)

@sundogplanets There’s so much to see out of the window->a surfeit of excitement!

@sundogplanets and yet, urban life is probably the main reason for global warming and environmental collapse.
@David weird way to say car dependency and the billionaire class but ok
