I just used my car to go 3 blocks away and I'm so disappointed in myself.

Also the way back was like 10 blocks

    I used my car today to go about 2km away. I picked up a couple heavy packs of drinks, a box of litter, and and five bags of groceries. The travel maybe cost me 1USD. There is no fucking way I could lug all of that home for my family with something that isn’t a car.

    I am not disappointed in myself. I just have to play with the cards I’m dealt.

    If you measure in blocks and not miles, youre already likely in bike country! Im at least a 15 min drive from any grocery. So an hour bike.

    I don't measure in miles because I live in a metric country. So I used blocks that we all understand.

    I have a lot of options for gfocieries nearby. They are just more expensive than the large sellers. ( 3 in a 2 block radius)

    I gotcha, but blocks dont work in non city areas or spread out cities

    So? If I say blocks, MOST people get it (let's say 99%). if I say meters MOST people don't get it (let's say over 70% are from the us). If I say miles, I don't get it.

    Which would you choose?

    Also id guess that even people who live in spread out cities or non city areas still go somewhat often to standard cities
