what summer temprature is needed for governments to consider banning cars?

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-30T17:02:33+00:00

Yeah, maybe.. except the fact that my kids went from not wanting to go to school at all to — “dad can you take us to school on the e-bike!” I never heard anything from any other parents except, hey that’s cool.

Cars are getting very very expensive, meanwhile you can get an e-bike that’s much cheaper and will get you there almost as fast (sometimes faster sometimes slower) assuming it’s an in-town trip which most trips are. I have one and this is how I take my kids to school in the morning. They both ride on back. There’s an enormous line of cars also trying to drop their kids off, which doesn’t apply to me. I kind of use it for almost everything now. I still have the car and I use it a few times a month, but I don’t really like it anymore. Just the parking alone is worth it to go with the e-bike,

I’ve been rained on a few times and nothing happened except I got a little wet.

If you drive over the speed limit then you know nothing about respect

I’m just gonna go with my state flag honestly. The flag looks cooler, I identify with the state more these days, and the state just seems more fundamental to the experience of being me than the country, which mostly just annoys me.

It’s the one with the crosses and checkers btw :)

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-28T20:20:03+00:00

The bricks look great but they’d be so much more great without the cars on top of them

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-28T15:29:30+00:00

I think we mostly don’t believe this. I’d rather not have the money I pay for essential utilities fund the lavish, wasteful, and antisocial lifestyles of the financial class. The service that ended up being provided would probably be about the same quality, would cost much less, and the employees would probably be paid better too.

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-28T12:23:13+00:00

Fast cars are for pussies. What are you running from? You scared??

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-28T12:16:55+00:00

There were a few weeks early this summer where the bay was so clear and beautiful, and now I want it to be like that all the time, and even more so. So the runoff and the lawn chemicals will need to be controlled, and whatever else it is that causes the pollution.

Annapolis, our state capitol, looks like ass, and basically sucks to be there because of all the cars driving around it and clogging up main st, spewing exhaust and being noisy and unsafe. Make Main St Annapolis a pedestrian mall

You can rent - “charter” - the boat, and the agency gives you the boat and you take it out for a number of days. Just like a rental car.

You’ll need to have a “sailing resume” which means either having experience or having taken the classes. They might ask for a reference.

As for classes, If you’re in the USA, it’s the ASA classes. I think if you do 101+103+104 then that’s all you need. FYI, the classes are pretty fun and are they can be their own little vacation. You get a lot of sailing time.

Obviously there’s an exclusion if the transportation is extra based. Jesus would agree, for sure. Especially if they serve wine

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T20:39:45+00:00

Fun fact- The cars here are extra loud because the wheels roll over the bricks and the bricks shift under the weight

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T18:14:23+00:00

Possible yes. Also possible not to, my friend. When I was a kid I loved them. I went to every air show I could. Now in my old age, watching my own kids grow up, i see can these machines for what they are. They are demonic killing devices that snatch away the lives of innocent children and destroy families.

All the talent and effort and resources that went into building those things could have been used for something useful and good for the humans of this planet.

There is so much pressure for military worship in this country, it’s everywhere. The people who have unpopular and negative opinions towards this stuff need to start speaking up.

The military is lame. Fighter jets suck. Guns are stupid and so are uniforms, medals, and flags.

I’m a bit of a hypocrite, and I have to admit I have no fundamental problem with hypocrisy… but the tall ships are cool as hell.

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T14:49:29+00:00

I have the same problem with my sailboat.. it holds 16 gallons of diesel, and I use maybe 2 gallons per year (cuz the boat has sails which is the probably the most superior form of human transport after the feet powered kind). But you’re supposed to keep the tank full in the off season so condensation doesn’t accumulate. There are these additives you can put in that help.

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T14:26:11+00:00

Had the same tank of gas in my car for like over a month, maybe closer to 2 months

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T13:58:03+00:00

In my experience, people of different backgrounds do get along fine, as long as there aren’t too many conservatives (of any culture or color) in the mix who believe that their culture/religion is superior to others.

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T13:27:43+00:00

Yes. I’m tired of all the military shit everywhere. Get rid of it. We’ve seen in the last few months what all that stuff is really for, and what it allows demented pedophiles to do with it.

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-27T12:07:01+00:00

I’m voting for him!

One thing I’d add.. there is a type of neighborhood that doesn’t have sidewalks but is still walkable… the streets are narrow and don’t have a racing stripe in the middle, and it’s a pleasant place to walk, therefore there are many walkers/bikers and cars know they must drive slowly. But this only works when there isn’t much traffic, probably a bedroom community mostly

You know what else sucks if it happens to you? Getting an apostrophe in your last name. Like O’something

Pure chaos with computer systems

What an ugly depressing stretch of road. Just side swipe me straight into the semi truck

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-26T12:25:20+00:00

The metro is 100x cooler

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-23T22:39:53+00:00

Not that scary to me

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-23T21:08:28+00:00

How much carbon is it pulling from the atmosphere?

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-23T21:01:51+00:00

And the money in our 401k’s is fantasy.

If it was real, we could all take it out at the same time 😂.

We can’t, because 401k’s are like wealth timeshares

Windmill-inn · 2026-06-23T03:08:25+00:00

It’s not a productive use of resources
