You and me both.

I traveled a thousand miles by bus but it was direct with only one “rest” stop and it was also overnight. Went to sleep on my way out of one city, woke up on my way into another.

I’ve also done longer trips with multiple stops and changing busses. I brought a book. It was fine.

When you’ve got less money and more time, it’s a good option to have.

Their beauty is beyond compare.

I have blocked nothing, but then I like a few shitposts in the feed. Keeps it spicy.

Coffee “beans” are closer to cherry pits than any real bean.

Really only bothers me if I ask hey are kids welcome at this event and the reply is “Fuck no!”

Huh. I’ll check it out, their series on pasta was really good.

And the blue area is definitely “commute by boat”, btw.

Anyone going that fast on a bike IS a motorcycle.

You’re a monster.

I’ve had friends that did that. It’s not something I would do; feels too much like “poverty tourism”.

Completely different? Where do you think the word “ghetto” comes from?

That aside, OP specified American cities.

The whole idea of “the bad part of town” is inextricable from racism in the US, since most of these “bad parts” were created intentionally through practices like redlining, ghettofication, and white flight. I’d say “crack a history book” but this isn’t even history yet, it’s still ongoing.

There are three.

One plays “Brave Bells of Scotland” with the word “HELLO-O” yelled by a distorted female voice every so often.

One plays chiptune Christmas Carols all year round.

One plays a medley of old songs heavily featuring “Turkey in the Straw”.

Most of us read by subscribed, not by browsing the modlogs.

No! The problem is the idea that you’d need bodyguards to walk through any part of an American city. You know people live in these neighborhoods, right? And we survive our Saturday nights just fine.

The question is bizarre and stinks of casual racism.

Bike lanes and paths are now full of people buzzing by at 25mph or more.

I’ll check it out, I had it bad this weekend.

I’m sure even non-Ameticans can tell the difference between an uppercase and lowercase letter L.
