Idk, I cost can be the issue. I live in a city with pretty decent public transit, and there's a reliable transit line that will take me to a friend that I visit pretty regularly. It's like 5-10 minutes to drive and maybe 20 to take public transit. More time, but if public transit was free I would definitely take it at least 80% of the time.

The problem is, if my boyfriend and I both go, it costs us ~$10 for the round trip. It's hard to justify spending that when I already have a car, and the gas to get there is a negligible expense. I do okay money wise (hence why I have a car at all), but if you ride often enough that expense really adds up.

I don't know why it never occurred to me, while scrolling through ad-choked recipe blogs on my phone, that Firefox might have an ad block extension on mobile.

I just opened a post for Earl Grey cookies and I can actually read the damn recipe. You just changed my life. If I ever had kids I would name my firstborn after you.
