15-minute cities

Interesting analysis. Driving and earning the money to pay to drive (buying a vehicle, gas, maintenance) consume more of our lives than you might expect.

Then sell yours and walk and bike EVERYWHERE!!

I walk around LA all the time. The right-wing media paints a false picture of what life is like in big cities.

I'm sure you spends hours every day walking through the tent cities of LA.

Make sense or stop posting to me.

I’m sorry you don’t understand logical posts.

I’m sorry you don’t understand logical posts.

As soon as you make one I may try to understand your convoluted postings.

There is no right wing media.

So irritable and emotional. Maybe you need a nap.

There are a few tents on a side street a few blocks over, but I wouldn't call three tents a "city".

I’ve made two. You didn’t like me pointing out that Memphis is 3x higher crime rate than Chicago.

This tactic is so boring. Please come up with something new.

As if that's all there is in LA.

We know that Memphis is a bad place. Funny thing is people aren't abandoning Tennessee like they are Illinois, New York, and California.

I prefer to use walkable cities like Paris, Amsterdam, and Tokyo as models to aspire to.

Then why the fuck are you in LA, the least walkable city on the planet (with the excepting of a lot of the Muslim cities when it comes to women)?

Your “CITIES ARE EVIL AND FULL OF DEMONS” tactic is moronic and boring. Please come up with something new.

The cities, the bigger and denser, the better, are a magnet for predators who can blend in and hunt.

Out here in the fields, they stand out, are isolated and ostracized and eventually gravitate towards better feeding grounds...

Perfect example of your moronic and boring “CITIES ARE EVIL AND FULL OF DEMONS” tactic. Even you must agree it’s moronic and boring.

 

[JoePepsiCo]

Merely pointing out the obvious. Cities, being inanimate objects, cannot be EVIL AND FULL OF DEMONS (PS., all caps makes you look stupid), but they are inhabited by people and a subset those people can be of low and nefarious character. The subset is not tolerated outside of urban areas as much as it is in the cities where they can better blend in with their surrounding; just part of the anonymous and faceless crowd. Out here, we know our neighbors and their qualities.

That’s a common myth about LA. It actually has lots of walkable neighborhoods. That’s why there such a strong push right now to link the walkable parts of LA together with trains and bike paths.

 

[JoePepsiCo]

Yes. You can take a walk.

This is different than walking for supplies...

If I in fact said that you would have a point. Nice try, no points awarded.

 

[JoePepsiCo]

We need to rethink these new cities as giant, tall buildings that grow upwards and downwards delving into the ground and using things like temperature differences, solar, and mechanical (think flushing toilets and falling water) to generate power. Artificial spaces that mimic nature to have that "walk..."

I regularly walk to the local Persian grocery store to buy staples I forgot at the supermarket. My teenage daughter walks to the neighborhood Japanese market to buy sushi and ramen.

 

[JoePepsiCo]

Uhhh...,

That's nice.

And your clothes come from that cute French boutique right around the corner?
