How is riding the bus so incredibly exhausting?!!

"Oh my god why do people live in cities?!" I yell to myself as I sit here within walking distance of more restaurants than exist in the entire province of Saskatchewan and an easy bus ride to like 37 world-class museums.
(Yes, I survived the first commute. It was just... a lot... for me, who often works from home and lives half a km from my nearest neighbour.)

@sundogplanets for me busses are worse for nausea. i love me a good tram or train.
@sundogplanets I feel so used to it. Once you sit down there is no responsibility. Perfect time to listen to a new album, read the news, play a video game, learn a language, or even shop for groceries!
@sundogplanets I love transit when it’s not crowded and underfunded, and properly allocated road space like the time of its riders matter; so right now I love e-biking more.
@sundogplanets climbing on the bus is a big vertical for a Saskatchewaner
@sundogplanets Buses are stressful and a total waste of my time. I can't do anything there - except a conversation if I bring a friend.
No wonder many city people drive cars when they can.
@sundogplanets with my introvert AuDHD head on?
The constant need to mask, plus being hypervigalant.
@sundogplanets people live in cities because you’ve got everything on your doorstep. You don’t need a car. Anywhere that is too far to walk you can get a bus.
@sundogplanets and yet, urban life is probably the main reason for global warming and environmental collapse.
@sundogplanets is the #profsamlecturetour coming to Montreal?
Hush! Tell them how wonderful city life is. What would Saskatchewan be like if Toronto lived there?
You must be mistaken. I never said that.
@oldclumsy_nowmad I think the -40 and blizzards does a pretty good job of that... but good point!
@sundogplanets @oldclumsy_nowmad That sounds like a valid excuse to own a snow cat... I see no negatives.
@sundogplanets My four year old an I did five hours on Vancouver transit yesterday because he finds it fun. You’ve got this!
@sundogplanets looks like a lively place to sit and gather your thoughts.. have a good trip!
@sundogplanets This is the peace we need. Happy Silent Sunday to you and best regards.
@sundogplanets
Wishing you a pleasant commute, with or without the obligatory hundred bottles of beer on the wall. 😉
@sundogplanets “We’re not in Saskatchewan anymore, Toto.”
@sundogplanets Peace backatcha. Lovely respite there. Yes, good luck on your travels tomorrow!
