Airports tend to be like that in the west, it was similar when I visited Mexico too. A taxi right outside the airport was a lot more expensive than the taxis across the street. The airport used to have a overhead walk way (which did suck to travel with luggage since it was quite a few steps), but I'm pretty sure they removed it since and the airport is on a major highway.
The airports in Montreal has a bunch of shuttles. Pretty much every nearby hotel runs a shuttle. But it's not walkable there either.
Oh man, I feel this one. I moved to a colder climate with my cat in winter and every time I pet her, if I got close to her ears... zap. She was always like ?????? About it.
One day it just stopped happening one day and I'm not sure why. So I don't really have any advice.
Yup,when I went to this suburb in Tennessee, I was baffled by how car dependant it was.
We spotted a Wal-Mart as we drove into a hotel to spend the night, it wasn't far at all. We asked the desk clerk how to get to it. My mom wanted to go for a walk and since it wasn't far, we decided to walk there. He pointed in a direction and said it was a mile away but the clerk wasn't specific with the details.
So we walked that direction, and we walked a mile, but didn't spot the Wal-Mart at all. Confused, we see some women drive to this building next to us and get out of their car and we ask them for directions to it. They said we had to go back the way we came, go down the road further, and take a turn. It's straight from there. They said the Wal-Mart wasn't accessible because of a bypass.
We thank them, turn, and start the walk. However, because the road was so windy, 1 mile was not one mile. We could see the Wal-Mart now but it felt like we weren't getting any closer to it because we are going in basically a zigzag motion. Right, left, right, left... it's a mile as the crow flies, but because of the way the road was set up, it took over 2 hours to walk. To make it worse, there is just acres of empty fields between us. But we can't cut through the empty lots of absolutely nothing because of 10ft+ fencing with barb wire on top. If we could cut through we could have been there and back so quickly. There was nothing on this property, it wasn't farm land. There was no buildings being constructed, nothing, just fields of empty, but mowed grass. The road we walked was so busy and there wasn't even a sidewalk. I never seen anything so unfriendly to pedestrians before.
This place was 100% reliant on cars. Even the main town itself didn't really have any sidewalks to speak of While walking in the main part of the town I only saw 2 businesses and they were blocks apart. Even just going to the store and getting a few small groceries looks to be a hassle without a car.
Live in a fairly rural area of Canada, the hospital closest to me closes at night. No new patients can come in. They are too understaffed. They used to let in serious emergencies but they don't anymore. So it's better to call 911 than to drive someone to a hospital yourself.
If I call 911, they send us to one of the hospitals about twice the distance away. It's not super far thankfully, 40mins instead of 20 but still.
Yup, classic case of realism not always making the game better.
I went to earth to check it out, I know the lore of why it is a giant sand ball but that also disappoints me. I walked around the approximate area of where I am from and found a small cave. But there was nothing in the cave except some abandoned drugs. I couldn't interact with the glowing mushrooms, mine any minerals, etc. I was hoping for a sprawling cavern or something and just... nope. I might go back to earth to explore it some more but it's so bland.
Again, what is your solution ? It's unrealistic to expect everyone everywhere will never have an event, etc ever again for the rest of time. Be it a house party or otherwise, the risk is always there. There are consequences to every action but if we care about every consequence like that... it's honestly better to just end all our lives right here. It would be the most net positive action we can take. But that isn't a viable solution either, is it? How do we get everyone to agree to committing suicide?
You're saying a lot of angry words but providing no solutions or suggestions. You're basically being that old man yelling at clouds. We are social creatures and most people can't live in complete isolation forever. Even if we try to, our societies just aren't built for that. People who try often starve to death.
What do you suggest though? Never host another concert, event, festival, etc ever again? You aren't safe in outside events either - I got my case at an outdoor event.
You've always took that risk to go to such events. There's always an uptick in colds after major ones. Sometimes people are aware thst they feel sick, other times they are asymptomatic but a carrier.
No no, you see the true cause of hurricanes and other natural disasters is wokeness and the LGBT community. Hie's doing a great job tackling the real issues.
Golf can use a terrible amount of water, plus keeping it mowed, and cutting forests for it. Places like Canada or the UK might be fine if it's not a drought year. But there's golf courses as far as Mexico. There's places in Mexico that is so dry outside of the summer months that golf courses would use a disgusting amount of water to keep the greens... green... there was a golf course in Mexico I went to that only bothered with the putting area and a bit around that. Everything else was dirt. It wasn't that pleasant of an experience because you do kick up dust when teeing off and whatnot. However, no way to lose your ball I suppose. Still, the water they needed just for the putting area must have been disgusting.
Climate deniers think all the forest fires are some government conspiracy because a bunch of fires starting all at the same time is super sus. Even though it happens all the time after a big heatwave / drought and pine forests are made to burn. Sometimes these trees will just... not spontaneously combust exactly, but pretty much do. Pine forests are built to burn every 2 years or so, it's one of the ways they reproduce - pines are genetically predisposed to catching fire easily and their sap is very very flammable. These forests burn hot and quickly but a fast fire isn't a very destructive fire. These trees often are not burnt to the ground. However, we are so effective at putting fires out so this 2 year burn off isn't happening. So, years of underbrush, etc is building up that otherwise wouldn't be. This makes what is supposed to be a fast burn fire, into a slow burn one. What would be a natural fireline because there is a large gap between some trees, isn't one because all the underbrush connects them.
So it's not just because of climate change, but we are responsible either way. There aren't any easy answers for this one because there are houses scattered all over the places. But there is no helping these Trump worshipping conspiracy theorists and we need to consider them a lost cause. Nothing will shake their faith in their Orange God so we must bolster against them and move on without them.
I know, how DARE someone promote inclusivity, positivity, love, and respect for others. The absolute gal. I want my children to be spiteful, hateful, afraid, and depressed! I want them to hate being themselves! I want them to hate the fact they might find someone attractive. It's what Jesus would want!
It is a puzzle platform adventure and the main character is a little girl probably around your daughter's age who befriends an arctic fox. It's an educational game about the Iñupiat people and their culture.
I dont know if there's any scary scenes but since the main character is a child and the main focus of the game is to be educational, I doubt there will be anything too inappropriate. There will probably be things that she won't understand but just about everything will have things here and there she wont understand - she's 5.
