      When my train doesn’t come, they use Twitter to give us Uber vouchers that don’t cover my ride home. 🦅🇺🇲👊

      not reliable enough, since no fast railway system, which has been lobbied against by car industries. semi-decent within city limits, but many jobs(tech ,biotech, are not close to public transport). musk use his hyperloop scam to stop calis fast railway, long enough for trumps 1st term, elaine chao to block it.

      I’d like that very much but I live in Canada and it’s very shitty here too. Our trains are worse than those in the US. I’ve moved in a city where I do have public transit, but it’s deteriorating in other parts of the region. Places where I could go before are now inaccessible. It’s difficult to go see some friends in other towns. People saying that I don’t know what I’m talking about, and carsplaining, when I grew up in a rural village in Canada. And all those replies about “BuT CaRs ArE a NeCesSiTy In AmErIcA” just for suggesting that people might want to avoid car sharing apps funded by equity funds and billionaires instead of just the occasional Tesla, are pretty funny.
