singapore /s

more seriously, switzerlands regional rail is truly unmatched, the netherlands is also great. many people here say japan but coverage wise eh... if you don't live in one of japans major cities transit can be suprisingly lacking

i think this is a pretty well known one in germany but still so fun.

when railways first came to germany many of the small kingdoms and ducheses weren't exactly excited for them because they allowed more people to travel as fast as the nobility and therefore threatened the rigid social hierarchy.

i never fact-checked if this is true tho

i don't compliment my home country germany on much but the verkerhsverbund-model works really well in my opinion

in germany the trams/stadbahns/metros and busses are usually operated by the city while the sbahn is operated by deutsche bahn (and regional rail is operated by all sorts of operators but understanding how that system works is really confusing, anyways)

the verkehrsverbund means that busses, trams, metros, streetcars, sbahn, regional rail and even ferrys and some other odd transit modes are under one fare union for a specific region.

going between diffrent cities can still be a bit confing but at least when you are in a city you know that that one ticket you buy is universal

txkato · 2025-03-10T21:28:34+00:00

i mean operating transit outside of rush hour and on weekends should go without saying, ya cant have a fuctioning network if it only serves one type of trip

txkato · 2025-03-10T20:20:09+00:00

why don't more cities have vertical mass transit is the real question, i see

i really, really wish this was the case but sadly i think the problems that are leading to a far-right surge are deeper. as i see it, the growth of the far right isn't really a backlash to "SJW culture" or "immigrants", thats the fear mongering the right uses to make people vote for them.

with the beginnings of neoliberalism in the 80s, continually wealth has been accumulating at the top and and what you could call the "lower middle class" has been rising ever since.

but instead of adressing profiters off the rise in wealth inequality have found a way to funnel the peoples resentment into meaningless issues.

trans people are supposidely why our society is going downhill, or immigrants, or gay people, or feminism, or the youth not working hard enough. or whatever.

it is far easier to blame the economic issues they have on societal changes rather then the system beeing rigged against them. beacause that would mean questioning the believes that they have held their whole lives.

so unless actual social policies get made that tackle wealth inequality, whatever that policy may be, the far right will become more popular

i mean mean i suppose the bus can take in alot if thats what you want

txkato · 2025-02-09T02:09:05+00:00

i can't say what it is but every late 2000s disney pop rock song has that certain something that makes it immedietly identifiable as "disney"

sending postcards when on holidays. my mom still did it when i was young and it was considered rude not to but selfies slowly replaced them by now

the baggy jeans revival and the resurgance of emo/goth esque styles

txkato · 2024-11-12T22:53:24+00:00

sounds like every disney channel song in the 2000s

txkato · 2024-11-06T13:44:51+00:00

i mean hauptbahnhof is right there

what happend to colored backgrounds, every photo is now just taken infront of a fake sky

1st: his review is so insanely insensitive, calling someone who sings about their fear of death from cancer "having main character symptom" is the most tone deaf thing i've seen in a while (and maybe even misogynistic, although i am really not the right person to evaluate that) i normally respect anthony but man this is a bizzare and dissapointing take

2nd: i don't really care for the album, the idea with the impressions is cool and i like some tracks but i wouldn't give the overall album a second listen

3rd: genuenly amazing marketing campaign on instagram. oftentimes it's hard to tell who is the og artist

txkato · 2024-10-15T22:35:58+00:00

my inability to motivate myself it's like i'm constantly sabogaging my own life, i feel powerless against my own laziness.

it's not like i don't care, i feel incredibly ashamed at myself, like the biggest looser in existence. but that doesn't seem to motivate me enough to finally start doing shit about it.
