@dekkzz76 @mac > but i think it's expected you live close to your place of work & will be for a while

Here that remains largely impractical due to our #CarCentricDevelopment-fucked country.

> now moving clerical & support out of big offices in factories to localised business units on the shop floor

I'm not quite sure I get what you mean here.

Local rent-able workspaces?

As for that taxation part, much of that comes down to nonsensical euclidean zoning instead of #MixedUse.

Prior to the #pandemic, it was already hard to appreciate much of #Canada considering how much has been destroyed for the #car, but in a continuation of self-destructive policy-making, the safety of indoor places & inadequacies of heretofore standard HVAC filters has been completely ignored, with the result that for all intents and purposes, in #Canada #meatspace is dead.

It's a shameful state of affairs.

If only #perth wasn’t built/continues to be built as #CarCentricDevelopment the options available to this older person wouldn’t require them to endanger themselves and others #perthdrivers

Headed out to pick up groceries, curbside pickup, on #BlackFriday. I swear, I never leave the house on this crazy shopping day, but we're out of milk because of poor planning on Wednesday, so off I go. I really wish it was walking distance, but the nearest grocery is 2 miles away with step hills and, at least for this body, that requires a car.

@argentum That's kinda what happens when you build sprawling housing in actual deserts.

American housing development makes absolutely no sense in any sustainability metric.
