Does the US really have no train?? Like why do they always drive on long distances instead of taking the train https://t.co/cNW1HOMxAc

To conclude …
This isn’t working for me as a transatlantic beef, sorry, ‘being able to drive a long way without stopping except for fuel’ cannot meaningfully be a source of actual pride to anyone. “Europeans hate to drive for 12 hours straight” oh okay, fine, whatever pic.twitter.com/XBg0wfanfK

I’ve been obsessed with that thread all morning. Drive for 12 hours without so much as peeing if it makes you happy, but I’m genuinely baffled as to why anyone would think it makes them superior.

Yeah, I can drive long distances if I have to, I just don’t really want to and there’s mostly no need in this country
