SUPER CONTROVERSIAL TAKE: I kinda like trashy beach towns and I hope they still exist under socialism (hexbear.net)

No better way to spend a 4 day weekend in the summer than drinking a margarita on the porch of some place called "Captain Smelly Balls Nasty Crab Bucket Shack" while listening to a terrible ZZ Tops cover band.

This is like the one good element of American Culture and it should be preserved.

Sorry the winter is getting to me a little.

Deal, but no cars. Only trams and bikes and those pedal-powered trolleys with like 20 sets of pedals.

Honestly a lot of beach towns seem to have better bike infrastructure than your average big city

If they didn't there'd be like 500 deaths a day from drunk driving

rickshaw-based public transit

I would legit love to be a rickshaw driver. I love exercise and love introducing people to cool shit. Take out the profit motive and put in a society where everyone has their needs taken care of and I would do that and teach surfing

Imagine a life where you freelance helping people. Like a surfing lesson here and a rickshaw there, but when it wears you down, you can just take a break because working isn’t a necessity.
