SnD, youre assuming everyone has access to bikes and bike lanes

i live 20 miles from work with no bike lane to and fro

if i park in a parking garage i can walk or take the underground to my building. the walk is about 1.5 miles at most and before we were sent home id say i walked 50% of the time

this isnt an either or situation.

theres a good chance that if i take the public transportation ill be wearing a mask just to avoid the germs. what ill do to avoid the human shit on the steps is my dexterity

Peeps you're in PA too, right? Winters here are quite different from winters in the Vancouver area.

Not forever, but surely longer than necessary.

Japanese people use masks when they feel they might be a little ill. Its just common sense, and a very nice way to take care of the other.

I hope the masks stick.

I'm not really knocking anyone who drives. But driving is making the same choice as not masking, my convenience comes before your health. I am pretty okay with that, more so with masks as I can always buy N95 grade quality masks to protect myself. I actually don't need you to mask up to protect myself. Whereas the GHG emitted during peoples commutes, I have zero protection from them.

I’m sure the Quad Cities experience is much more representative of America.
It's just an IQ test at this point. You're fully vaccinated and still cucking yourself to a fat billionaire and a psychopath. Get a grip.
Have you stopped wearing a mask yet?
Got together with some family Sunday for Easter. Nobody wore a mask and I don't even recall anybody mentioning covid.
Great. Have you stopped wearing a mask yet?

but its not. some people have no choice but to drive to work (ala me) regardless of how close the public transit pick up is. you have to drive some where to get to work in most cases. you can always wear your mask

You could move closer. High density housing is better for the environment. You don't want to and I fully support your choice even though it adds to climate change.

Wearing a mask will not save me from GHG driven climate change. You can save yourself from others not wearing a mask. I cannot save myself from climate change from others GHG driven commutes.

it isnt an either or which is what you are presenting in your false context of not driving to work

is it economically feasible to buy a house in the city of pittsburgh vs where i am now? or is it cheaper for people to buy a mask or use their handkerchief they have hanging from their rearview mirror next to that garter belt from the wedding the attended 20 years ago?

That’s all I’m doing, so I guess you’re cucking for JB just as hard.
