- doctorpangloss 5mo agoi don't own a car, i bike everywhere with young kids. i like public transport. we're not talking about that. people fucking LOVE cars. they LOVE single family homes. everywhere, in every community.

Single-family homes and cars are only 100 years old in our tens of thousands of years history as humans. I would LOVE to not have to have a car. I would LOVE to live in a multi-generational home or local community with nearby third places.
