It'll be a far cry from the 700,000 one guy is estimating (guessing).

I'm only following this story to see how hard it falls flat. I'm guessing between 50-100 cars total.

I think OP was asking about young kids who are still learning to pronounce words correctly.

I just started watching this a week ago. Halfway through season 3. Fucking amazing show!

Is Jon Stewart considered a populist?

Didn't we throw that litmus test out the window with 45?

Daredevil's long take hallway fight scene really made me appreciate that type of shot. The scene just hits different when it's choreographed to be done in a single take. It's what made me love the John Wick movies.

Also, once you realize it's supposed to be a single shot scene, it becomes really evident when they use hidden cuts to make it feel like a single shot. The most obvious is when someone or something temporarily blocks the camera.

I agree with the idea of small communities being interconnected with a massive distribution of public transit. I would love to walk everywhere from my daily necessities, but still making it easy to get to larger social centers for other needs. I think that should be the goal we strive for as a society.

Not what I said, but go ahead and make your absurd conclusions. Just for the record, I'm 100% for public transportation, EVs, renewable energy, and getting off the fossil fuel tit.

If we're ever going to pull people along the path to that future, we have to accept and acknowledge the exceptions. Not all the time, but don't ignore it like most articles I've read on the topic. I believe division occurs when people feel they are being ignored.

You summarized perfectly the problem I see with the "fuck cars" crowd. They never acknowledge the need for cars in some cases. America's population centers are definitely large cities where public transportation SHOULD be championed, but there has to be an acknowledgement of the rural population (around 15% in America I believe) where cars are a necessity.
