I feel you on the radio aspect, I cycle through all my presets on my 25 minute commute because so many of them are just ads for 5 minutes. And for some reason my rural area has 4 classic rock stations but I can’t find one that plays anything modern but pop and pop-country.

I took it to mean “it has increased to the point we can’t deal with it all”

There are ways to do this in a walkable city.

If a grocery store is within walking distance why not make a trip of it with the whole family? Many hands make light work. Or, just because a city is human focused instead of car focused doesn’t mean no cars at all (at least in the way I would implement it) you could rent a car for a few hours every couple of weeks.

Obviously these ideas won’t work for everyone but they’re just off the top of my head, and unfortunately there is no system that will work for everyone. We just have to try for works better.

Great to hear, that is actually a lot better than I would have expected. It would still be ideal if you could use it as easily as someone not using a wheelchair but we do have to live in the real world and accommodating everyone is complicated and expensive.

Absolutely it could be like that, mixed use buildings are something we really lack in North America and are the lifeblood of a city

Or, if we’re changing cities already we could make more accessible homes and public transit. If someone in a wheelchair can’t get onto a train you’ve made the train wrong.

Slipknot all day everyday. Fast to tie and untie nothing to lose like a clip or a rubber band. Plus it’s just a small bit of fun
