It's more than that

Heights are almost expressed in feet and inches when it comes to people, and oven temperatures in Farenheight

But then outdoor temps are in Celsius, and measurements are often in CM / M oh and boy temp is Farenheight too cause of course lol

    Can agree with this more they also have warehouses near or in major cities to help cut down travel time where small businesses might ship themselves or use a 3PL with one or two fulfilment points.

    Rates are so variable too especially when weights exceed a threshold (usually a pound)

    Electric cars are heavier, noise dampened, and have the same blind spots, they do accelerate faster though depending on the situation that can just make an inattentive driver more dangerous.

    Electric cars are better environmentally then gas cars but they certainly don’t absolve the need for traffic signals the way purely pedestrian and cycle traffic would

    Church seems to fill the hobby need and has some of the same core aspects

    • common interest
    • regular meet ups
    • online and in person groups

    Honestly replacement really could be as simple as finding a group that fits your hobbies (I’m in a writing group for example)

    Alternatively volunteer, it checks a lot of the same boxes (sense of community, trying to make things better) with none of the religious bits (assuming you find an agnostic organization)
