malcom, tony, and angus

They interviewed AC/DC? Does everyone down there have the same name?

Yeah I'm going to say nukes are the starting point

If America is a country built for cars at the expense of all else, the Netherlands is the same but built at bike scale. Like these are just suburbs dawg, yeah the bikes are great and wayyy ahead of the rest of the world, but many other countries just build more dense so you can just walk everywhere and take the train rather than have massive bike parking lots at every station. Again, the biking and trains are great but it's just a different kind of suburb. I think the Dutch refuse to build taller because they would rather make another polder instead.

Someone mentioned Belgium earlier in this thread, so I'm going to go a step farther and say the Netherlands. Yes, the cycling infrastructure is the best in the world and a decade ahead of every other country. Yes, the train system is pretty damn great with most lines getting at least 2 trains an hour. However, the Dutch seem to be remarkably proud of their colonial history, almost as much as the Brits according to this article. It's still a neoliberal country and is the home of Shell Oil. The country also has a sprawl problem-I would call it bike sprawl-where much of the country is rowhouses and the transport seems designed around bikes and cars. This is still steps ahead of most other countries but the Dutch seem to be somewhat allergic to building more dense neighborhoods. The local bus service is also somewhat lacking, with less frequent service than in comparable countries depending on where you are. Oh also the dutch "language" is a joke.

They've been doing this shit for 12 years

Rare Japanese W compared to China

I don't think that's unique to cycling I think he was just an asshole

I bought a bidet and am never going back. Sidenote: were you here for the bidet struggle session where a user decided bidets were bourgeois?

Ashlee was collecting some bail money for you so I guess that never got used. Do you have enough money to get the car registered now?

If you haven't read The Will To Change by bell hooks it is definitely worth a read. It is a cure to the toxic gender wars of the 2010s and today and is a compassionate look at masculinity as a whole. I highly recommend it.

Ok but it's Dutch, I understand the hesitation

This guy's channel is fascinating. He's been to China and actually has a great video debunking the social credit nonsense and explaining what China actually did- but at the same time he dislikes the CPC for... reasons? Tinyman square 100 gorillion dead i guess. He even did a video on the high speed rail lines but claimed they were overbuilt (they are not). I like a lot of stuff on his channel, even a lot of his china stuff, but I don't understand his politics.

computer iz hard

Hello!

I like trains

I will call and encourage them to vote for socialist candidates

This is a fun series, but has been getting increasingly bizarre, even by its own standards.

I kinda wish they put a little bit more effort into the anime (overhead wires, signals, correct tracks, etc.) but the fact that it all takes place after the 7G event makes these issues handwaveable.

Ironically the abt system isn't in the main photo
