    This is sad to read, but I just wanted to say that I love the graphics in the article. They’ve presented the information in a nice way.

      It’s a very pretty confirmation of how fucked I already knew I am.

      Indeed.

      Awful news but great execution.

      I’d like to receive all my bad news this way please.

    The main reason I have a car is not for travel.

    It’s to sleep in if things go pear shaped. Maybe I should say more pear shaped.

      Looked like it was already pear shaped, and more cock and ball shaped for the more vulnerable population.

      I have a van too, ostensibly for camping, but “just in case” feels more and more possible in my a single income family (just 1 child though thankfully).

      I've seen parking spaces in the city going cheap, I was wondering how they'd feel about buying a space to live in my van there? Spend my day at the gym or library, pop by at night to sleep in the van.
