At least I get to relax, play a game, knit, etc. This is true, but only if it’s not crowded and you get to sit down. The same commute time feels completely different during rush hour and off-peak. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bunbury@feddit.nl 1 point 1 year ago True. Luckily I haven’t needed to stand in a long while. Makes the commute a lot less fun when that’s necessary. But at least there’s audiobooks. permalink fedilink source parent
