No matter how fervent or enthusiastic my faith in the promise of the human experiment is (and it is pretty devout), any time I have to drive a car, I begin to find myself firmly on Team Extinction-Level Asteroid Strike.

For most people who only drive, they can’t see what’s wrong with this, or probably don’t care

Das schlimmste Kinderspielzeug, was es gibt, sind diese kleinen batteriebetriebenen Autos, bei denen die Lütten nur noch lenken müssen. #CarCultureSucks
Rode my bike to run errands yesterday. If I did what this driver did, I’d be feeding into the narrative that people on bikes never follow the rules. Yet when drivers do this, it’s an individual action, doesn’t reflect all drivers,

In my previous post, I mentioned I was planning this trip, and currently there is soil erosion in Orange County, CA which would not make it possible for a one seat ride on Amtrak from Los Angeles to San Diego. If I left from Los Angeles, it would be train, bus, train. So instead, I opted for car, bus, train. The reality is in California, much like the rest of the US, hav
