ape brain idea that haunts me: natural selection only selects for beneficial characteristics up to the average age that humans have children, meaning you are in the genetic deep-end during the years after child-bearing age.
I can play games on my desktop for 1 hour, OR I can drive ~1 mile in my EV.
EVs are fun because they put into perspective how inefficient cars are, and keep in mind that EVs are around 2-3x more efficient than Gas Vehicles at converting energy into motion.
America needs just a single electric form of long distance travel, or at least one that doesn't directly emit carbon. Please make just one, I'm begging.
I don't enjoy travelling because what I really want is to escape from life, not to pay to be surrounded by people in a slightly different rat race, also sprinting head-long toward their next paycheck. that's just as exhausting but costs more.
sometimes I think travel is just an exhausting reminder of what a waste our lives are outside of solitude, books, art.
