US infrastructure passionately hates foot traffic most places.

Sure, if you live in a literal gridmap (of which I’ve seen pics and yeah nah, pass) but even googling “US suburban hellscape” brings multiple pictures of suburbia with alright sidewalks. And I live in the main car-brain purgatory of my country which actively and purposefully fucks over pedestrians but it’s still fine, feet don’t need all that much to get you from place to place. Going offroad is serene when you’re unbound by the limitations of the tire.

I’ve found most people really don’t care, or don’t care enough to be violent assholes about it.

For sure, but it takes just one.

I wouldn’t recommend referring to being LGBT+ as a ‘lifestyle preference’

Thanks for the heads up mate, translated the phrase from my native language, where I think it’s fine to say, but admittedly I’m now frantically looking into is it really. I hope hatred towards anyone doesn’t seep from my comments. I only and exclusively hate on weebs, commies and furries, which are all the same people really.
