Yes I know, "cars bad", but I desperately need this to be able to get a fucking job.

Anyways, looks like I'm gonna have to support social democracy now, my communist ass has been owned. sadness

If I had my way I would have never learned to drive and just walked or rode a bicycle everywhere, forever.

I held out for many years doing just that, but city planning around here is carbrained and hostile and even the district has some passive-aggressive bullshit where they expect you to drive even if you're within cycling distance because norms in Burgerland. grillman

Don't feel bad, comrade. We do what we gotta do.

Yeah, I don't really feel bad, it's just weird doing this at my age lol

When I get the license I'm gonna get a job that I'm pretty sure I'll actually enjoy. I'll be building infrastructure that the people need so that's pretty cool.

And I'll still be biking sicko-biker
