SuperDicq (superdicq@minidisc.tokyo)'s status on Sunday, 07-Jan-2024 04:44:05 JST SuperDicq @lain@lain.com Dutch rowhouses is like American suburbs but the houses are next to each other so you don't spent as much on heating, and I can walk to the nearest supermarket in 5 minutes.

SuperDicq (superdicq@minidisc.tokyo)'s status on Sunday, 07-Jan-2024 23:44:01 JST SuperDicq @wholemilk@social.linux.pizza @lain@lain.com Those are traditional canal houses that you see in all of the old city centres. They are pretty unaffordable to live in for most people as they are historic buildings.
The typical rowhouses that 60% of the population lives in looks more like this: Suburbia but more sustainable -

SuperDicq (superdicq@minidisc.tokyo)'s status on Tuesday, 09-Jan-2024 00:56:17 JST SuperDicq @skylar@wolfgirl.bar @lain@lain.com entire point of a supermarket is it's a big storeHere it isn't. We have a ton of small supermarkets scattered all over the place.
Making the store smaller makes it easy to just walk through it and grab what you need. I go grocery shopping two or three times a week and I buy small amounts of stuff so it is always fresh.
If I buy large amounts of groceries for long periods of time I often have stuff spoil and such. It's just a lot more flexible overall. -

the entire point of a supermarket is it's a big store for buying a whole ass cart full of groceries that'll last you for a couple weeks, so having a convenient way to bring your shit home without stealing the cart is necessary
the average american in a suburb probably lives within a 5 minute drive to a supermarket and spends less time overall buying groceries -

i'm as scatterbrained as possible without being a vtuber and need an emergency grocery trip like less than once a year. putting stuff on a grocery list for what you plan to make over the next week is just not that difficult.
if i did forget the milk....why walk there? on what planet is that going to be faster or more convenient than driving? is it a beautiful day outside? if so why the hell would i want to go for a walk in a city of all places, even if there was not a single swarthy race or homosexual?

yellow for european, american, and mexican cooking into sauces, white for toppings on hot dog or burg, green onion rings from the green part for asian food topping, the white part of the green onion minced with aromatics for asian and some french recipes -

Either I cook it day of or it goes into the freezer and takes a major, permanent hit to its quality. Vegetables will only last a couple days as well. Green onions or baby bok choy after like 3 days are basically inedible. Bread/tortilla has a similar lifespan as well
>on what planet is that going to be faster or more convenient than driving?
anywhere it's close. Repeatedly driving your car short distances is bad for it and burns gas. -

despite Biden's best efforts, burning a little bit of gas to drive 3 miles isn't some huge financial burden.
