Unfortunately not all forced to work are able to walk/bike 3 miles, though that is a good suggestion for most people. I'd be thrilled to be able to walk 3 miles to work so long as it is safe.

Snow falling on a bridge looks even colder than it is. You stare out and see the blackness of water beneath you and the night sky above you. You can forget you are alive in such a place.

One thing that getting old has taught me, sleep is awesome and worth looking forward to.

I've been having to size up, but that is probably because of my overly-sedentary lifestyle and fondness for good food. Trying to work on it when my mental well-being permits.

Clicked the preview, there is nothing to see here, folks.

I suspect coal country in Kentucky, WV and rural PA and Virginia and the western plains in Nebraska and Kansas, which are already severely stressed with population loss, will see some real ghost towns soon. Especially if the Ogallala aquifer dries up in the latter case.

I need to get around to trying the Pern books. My mom was a big fan and had all or nearly all of them.

Sounds like a cool idea, I literally just finished rereading The Left Hand of Darkness yesterday though.

Esperanto, very slowly, using Duolingo. Why? Just because.

Since you said "house" I'm going to push back a little bit. Housing is unaffordable and we should address it but single-family homes are not a feasible solution for a lot of places and situations.

Definitely one of the fastest way to start arguments, especially among people left-of-center.
