You joke, but depending on the area transit can range from really good to REALLY bad.
Things have gotten really shitty in my city (Calgary, Alberta), my friend takes transit so I hear the horror stories. Homeless people openly doing drugs, screaming at people walking by, sometimes ODing and dying. I’ve had to leave work to pick up my friend after a homeless guy tried to grab her and was following her with two of his buddies until she went into a restaurant to call me.
The last time I had to take transit on my own they hadn’t cleaned the blood off the wall from the stabbing a couple weeks prior (2023 had a transit stabbing every few weeks).
I seriously wish I was making this up as it’s been cartoonishly awful the last couple of years.
And are these people who masturbate in the corner or who are creeping up your skirt in the room right now? (Not seen 'em here is what I’m saying.)
