Sure, I'd love to cycle 56km to and from work each day. Especially right after a night shift.
We should just invent portals already.
If we invented portals I feel like they would use more fossil fuels than just driving.
I think the bones are fully consumed by the teleportation ritual.
bones will be the fuel
Green and renewable fossil fuel (don't ask where we get the bones)
56 kms is far, indeed. Thsts what you make public transportation for. Trains, busses.
Well done, the would be more comfortable and faster than a car.
However, I did 25 kms to and from every day. Took me 45 minutes and it was super healthy
I commute with a car to a bus. I lived closer but this only takes 15min more.
45 minutes is a long time near nightfall, though... Honestly I'd rather take a bus at 5PM, even at 12km, since there are other people and it feels much safer.
Maybe... Move closer to where you work?
Then why wife would be further from where she works.
I never thought of that. Thanks! Now I just need a shit ton of money to do so!
