My experience with Australia so far.
Based sun.
Excellent!
Never *LIVE west of your job unless you work nights
(previously used the word “work” which made it redundant sorry)
I do and it blows. In fall the sun will be lower in the sky when I go home and reflect perfectly off the road so that everything is blinding.
I usually try and work on location of my job
Makes sense. Wherever you are at any time, just try to be to the west of that if you can.
Nice, new job search constraint

I don’t think the artist is implying that people driving to work “deserve” it. Just that it happens by nature of a typical commute time with sunrise and sunset.
So I guess next time you look for a house/job, make sure the house is east of your job so you have the sun in the back in the morning and in the evening.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
ill say it, these east going zax are soft and uncultured, compared to us far superior west going zax.
I think they deserve it. Engine exhaust and tire wear creates pollution that gives children lung cancer. Having a bright light in your eyes isn’t as bad as lung cancer.
While I agree that exhaust gas and tire debris aren’t healthy, I don’t think we can reasonably say those cause lung cancer in children. Certainly not in any meaningful number.
Lung cancer only accounts for 0.2 percent of pediatric cancers. And even then, it’s hard to say exactly what caused it: genetics, second hand smoke, radon, asbestos exposure… Exhaust and tire debris MIGHT cause cancer in a particular child, but let’s not freak people out beyond what’s reasonable.

You got a lot of tests handed back face down didn’t you?
The comment was deleted, do you remember vaguely what it said
Way to miss the fucking joke.
I swear, a lot of people here on Lemmy are immune to comedy
Fucking not fucking funny
Lol, it’s even more funny now.
The people in the fuckcars community probably. They talk like this all the time.
I’ll never understand this sentiment that we’re all supposed to move into the same neighbourhood that we work, or walk over 70km to get to our workplace?
Most anti-car people are in favor of improving public transit options.
I’m anti car. But I’m not in favor of banning cars. I want public transport to be good enough that people want to use it instead of cars.
If I want to get from where I live to the city centre during rush hour, it’s actually faster to take the tram than to drive, and that’s before looking for a parking spot
What is it we imagine “banning cars” actually means?
I’m not disagreeing, but I’m curious. Does anyone think there’s a serious policy proposal to just…ban cars. Like, “starting May 1st, there will be no cars. Authorities will be collecting your car, and it will be crushed and melted down to make bikes. If you live in the middle of nowhere…well I guess you’ll have to eat pinecones or something.”
Obviously, that’s silly to even consider, but I am absolutely in favor of banning cars on at least a couple of specific streets in my city. We could do it today, and no one would be more than mildly inconvenienced, and the new car-free spaces would be thoroughly enjoyed.

Yeah, I’m all for that. And it’s easy. Just revoke all licences. Then have the cops ticket anyone who drives without a licence. You’ll make a million dollars on the first day of the legislation.
Obviously, put in exceptions for emergency services vehicles. Put a delay in the legislation so there are 5 years for people to adapt. Make the delay 10 years for delivery trucks.
People lived on farms 200 years ago. They walked to town or rode a horse. They can do that again.

Sounds like you are grumpy. You should take a nap.
Read a history book. We all lived where we worked 150 years ago. It’s normal.
imagine wanting to go back to horse and buggy unironically
We’re all gonna die if we don’t.
Also, we have better trains now.
Wow, is your shoulder okay after that reach?

Are you personally mentioned in this comic?
It couldn’t be someone who drives east in the morning, noooo, it has to be someone who hates cars…
Dude, stop thinking like that.

Huh, couldn’t be that they are driving east in the morning.
Don’t be as smart as your screen name.
