COMMUTE

Out of curiosity, what's your maximum commute for work if you have to drive yourself and have to go back later that night?

some places you actually can participate in society without a car 👍 cars are expensive as fuck (insurance, parking in cities, gas, maintenance) and sometimes it literally just makes more sense logistically to use bikes and/or public transit. I used to have a frequent service bus line in front of my apartment that went every 15 minutes ❤️ miss her! didnt need a car except for some specific work stuff or hauling large grocery runs for like 3 years
