  • rising gas prices

    Most of my local public transport is electrically-powered now, so ¯(ツ)_/¯

    who buys tickets with cash anymore lol

    I did recently when I lost my travel card. Some people also travel using cash habitually for privacy reasons (What if someone has an abusive partner watching bank card transactions and transport card accounts? What if there's a data breach? I recall a few years ago one train network voluntarily gave aggregated trip data to a student researcher which could pretty easily be deanonymized.)

    Maybe it's different where you live, but cash certainly lives here.

  • I wish public transport was more of a thing where I am. I personally really enjoy driving for leisure, but it'd be really nice to have the choice.

    I should look up my local bus lines and operating hours. I think there are some around me, it's just extremely sparse from what I understand

  • Meanwhile here in the Midwest the cities are opting to not even continue service because the bus company wants too much. Last I heard four cities had done so in my area. The busses still run their same routes through my city. They just don't stop.

    I miss having a bus. Even tho the nearest stop was about a mile and a half walk.
