Before I began driving less, I had long had a melancholic sense that the city lifestyle I lived was cut off from the seasons and nature

    Not only that, but I live in the desert where practically everyone is rocking limo tint. I feel like the majority of people don’t see people driving cars. The knowledge is there, sure, (Unless it’s a robotic abomination maybe), but somehow implicitly when you’re just seeing logos and bumpers it removes the personhood of everyone else on the road.

    Things become a lot less about sharing and cooperating, and more about “dealing with obstacles.”

    I really wish this place were walkable or bikeable.
