This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Mx. Fancypants over here. With your fancy privacy and your fancy mental health.

Only in places that are as car centric as the US. I get to work by train. Plenty of people living in bigger cities with decent public transport in Europe or Asia have no need for a driver's license

I'm from Vancouver, I never got a license until I had collected so many tools in my standard kit that I was struggling getting from site to site. Carrying 40kg up big stupid hills was the breaking point.

Ok but what if you're American and the meme still applies?

[–] cazssiew@lemmy.world 11 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I'm from NYC, I've never needed a car.

I'm like the only person I know without a license though.

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

I wouldn't know, I've never been there and they're not going to let me in either

can you blame anyone?

what is the benefit of participating in a post billionaire society?

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I do not blame most

Your retreat to isolation is the fruition of their domination over you.

They want every facet of your life to become dependent on them and not your community around you.

It looks like there's no benefit by design, because it's profitable.

I think depending on the week we are having, we are in post trillionaire society aren't we?

[–] baines@lemmy.cafe 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

[–] YerLam@lemmy.world 1 points 16 minutes ago

Just the one zero: Their bank account after all bills and life expenses have gone out.
