@EOpsych the amount of times i’m on a bus where there are more fare enforcers than actual riders, and it’s like, you had to pay all that salary just to maybe make sure than you didn’t lose 5 bucks

OK, but also fare collection and enforcement makes buses so much slower. Public transportation is so beneficial for everyone (reduces traffic and pollution, correlated with increased life expectancy and reduced health care costs) it should be fully funded. Bus fares largely
urbanist slop hq@SlopHq

the thing that gets people on transit isn’t free fares it’s not having to check a schedule. a bus that costs $2 and comes every 6 minutes will outperform a free bus that comes every 30 minutes every single time. frequency is the product. the fare is a rounding error

by the time I’m attracted to someone, I already know not only their gender, but what their gender means to them & how they see -me- in relation to -their- gender & sexuality

i’ll believe ppl genuinely think demisexuality is “just normal” when someone can say they’re attracted exclusively to nonbinary ppl &not get told “how do you know someone’s nonbinary just by LOOKING at them” as tho everyone experiences attraction toward ppl they haven’t talked to

nobody talks about how exhausting it is to live in that space between “things will get better” and “i can’t handle this anymore.” it’s like your emotions are constantly swinging. leaving you both hopeful and defeated in the same day

always fascinated by the ways people will take criticism of therapy or even outright “i am not going to therapy” as “refusing to do the work to improve your life” esp when, when asked what therapy does, is always about you, the person, doing the work

6th grade we sat in groups of 6 desks and mid-year my teacher put me and the other quietest girl in class with all the rowdy boys. Who were all friends & who were already bullying the two of us & our teacher knew it. My grades tanked, I got smaller & quieter & never bounced back

Going back to this, what was the epidemic of girls who did good in class having to suffer by being put beside the baddest, most horrible of boys in hopes your behavior would influence them? I believe there’s a term for it but it was a conversation a while back.
