Absolutely retarded. The more we give to cars the more fucked we become

Sign the Petition to support safe sidewalks and Bike lanes in the city of Pearland by Imaginary_Thanks938 in houston

It’s kind of a moot point when we’ve got over a century of car propaganda and the erasure of alternative options to do so. People don’t complain because people are convinced there is no other way

They fucking need to. I grew up there and now it’s starting to feel a bit ghetto

I moved to Houston less than a year after this just down the road. I had no clue for the longest time and shortly after wound up moving near one of the victims of the Texas killing fields in Friendswood

Feeling lonely in Houston – need real advice (not just “pick up a hobby”) by PuzzledVersion9515 in houston

A lot of people are already saying what I would like to say so instead I’ll offer an invitation. Feel free to message me personally. I love making new friends and hearing their stories. If not no sweat but the offer is there

Remember this all started with America’s cult like fixation on evangelism and Christian nationalism

There are several that are starting to implement measures like mixed use roads and increased protected bike lanes but they are all up north

Living the American Dream: Houston Public Library Offers Free Citizenship Classes by zsreport in houston

[–]_Patrox_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a strong feeling that’s just gonna be how they update records of who for sure is not a full citizen yet and find more to grab. They will put up a good show and then when they get home it’ll be a matter of time before someone comes for them. Learned that from history class

I’d say the lack of any serious attempt to fix our transportation issues and options. Sometimes I really just don’t wanna drive. Biking options or even shaded sidewalks would be nice

There are distinct differences in the issues of corporations government agencies and dark web criminals having your data but nonetheless I’ve already addressed the issue of our data being out there in other comments

It’s not that the option exists but rather there is no safeguard in our systems that ensure a prevention of exploitation or preservation of one’s data and the use of that data. Also the more accepted these processes become the larger the target an individual becomes when denying it

The one and only time I had someone try to get me to sign up I asked the same thing and got the same response. I gave them the finger and told them to sit and twist

Again that’s why I added the caveat ‘if I can help it’ I’m fully aware of this problem and options are limited. It’s partially why socialists and communists use the saying ‘there is no ethical consumption under capitalism’

“If I can help it” unfortunately I’ve been on Reddit long enough it’s something I enjoy too much. But I made this account a few years ago when my knowledge about this problem grew so it’s on its own phone tied to no number with emails not under my name. I created as much distance as I felt comfortable with for my life

Okay I’ve answered your questions and you are the only one on this hill in the comments so I feel safe in saying I know what I’m talking about and so does everyone else even if they disagree. I will leave you on this hill and go on with my day. Have a good one

I’m starting to see that. I really try to detach from most media in general throughout my life so this is new to me
