Me too. I break out to google with a !g when necessary, which is maybe 1/3 of the time depending on the subject (maps, technical)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the craziest thing you've seen on public transportation?
3·1 month agoIt’s a fair point, but I think I gained some empathy and perspective on my own problems. Maybe it does something dark to a person but I’m definitely fairly confident.
I get to look at my phone and read interesting things/do Duolingo. The stress of a car would be similar or worse I think.
Humanity is interesting, warts and all

321·1 month agoWaiting for a matatu and one dude starts beating the shit out of another. Two separate times.
Cool dude gets on near Bakersfield, sits next to me, drinks a 12 pack and tells me how he murdered people in prison.
Various people smoking crack, meth, and fety on trains and buses
Dude gets asked to turn his music down, goes on escalating and frankly impressive rant for 10 minutes about how he’s going to cut the guys head clean off with his machete
Various guys jacking off
Various rants against every race
Spent 90% of my life taking public transit and I love it. Big public transit fan and I wish people would intermingle more in general.
But, if you talk loudly or listen to music on the tinny speakers on your phone, you are the scum of the earth in my eyes. I’d rather have a dude strung out on heroin on the train than you, absolutely no hint of sarcasm.
Sure! Thanksgiving is principally a national holiday in the U.S. that traces its roots to religious and historical traditions from England, particularly during the early 17th century colonies in the New World.
It’s meant to be an autumn harvest holiday. The apocryphal story is that Puritans sat down with Native Americans to feast and celebrate goodwill between their respective groups but the evidence for this is suspect at best.
Over time, Thanksgiving became more popular and involves heavy travel during the (pre-) holiday season. It’s a chance for families to enjoy each others’ company before Christmas and feast on roast turkey and a variety of vegetable dishes.
Hope this helps! Go with God.
