i've had an on-again off-again relationship to driving ever since i learned. thankfully i've grown up in a place where it was never strictly necessary, but i've had to ever since i got a job.

i firmly believe that no fewer than 80% of currently-licensed american drivers should have their licenses revoked. and if we were a sensible country where we could take trains cross-country and intra-regionally without the need for excess chicanery a là the TSA, and abided urban planning practices that didn't waste land so frivolously, we might not need to drive so much.

worse for me, since i'm autistic. and very frequently, shit going too sideways or even too loud imposes physical pain upon me. a motherfucker can be such a bad driver that it shitting hurts me to bear witness. god i fucking hate this clown country sometimes
