What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?
  • @AA5B I'm pretty sure that, at the very least, checking out ebooks still counts as "being a library patron", and they can count that in their membership/use numbers when saying, "We need more funding; look, we serve X many people!"

    You're probably right about bookstores. Maybe I'm just spoiled to have a nice, independent bookstore 5-6 minutes' walk away, and a more chain-ish one in the mall that's maybe 10 minutes away. (I'm definitely not complaining!)

  • @uis Holy cow! Where are you that there are *eight* malls within a 15-minute walk? (If you don't mind my asking?)

  • @ajsadauskas @fuck_cars I'm kind of sad that "cafe", "bookstore", and "library" aren't even on this list at all. 😒

    I would honestly have to do a web search to find out where the nearest elementary school, day care, and gas station are, but I'd be stunned if I didn't have those within 15 minutes. As it is, I do have everything else, including a university and a sports arena, and *two* malls. (I'm in between the Barclays Center and Long Island University in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, NYC.)
