It's 97F/36C outside today and the guy running the abarrotes was wearing a jacket, zipped up. I'll never understand the heat tolerance of some people.

"A few hours" is basically instantaneous in a lot of areas out there. It might take over an hour to simply get the closest cop to drive out and block off the road, much less an engineer, much less a road crew equipped to actually do anything about it.

Imagine, if you will, a country where it's legal for small farmers or even regular people to have chickens and sell their excess eggs instead of there only being a handful of massive corporate egg farms which conveniently catch on fire whenever the government is doing another bird flu scam.

Little to none. White flight wasn't a thing when car dependence started, and wasn't a thing in most parts of the country for a long time afterwards. Zoning laws and retarded building codes are the problem, even in the whitest of white neighborhoods.

Car dependence killed a lot of this culture in the US. Everything is point-to-point, with mandatory property setbacks, mandatory parking lots, and mandatory separation of every category of use from every other category of use, often by miles.

Fat doesn't make you get fat. Carbs do. Carbs trigger insulin release which causes glucose to be turned into glycogen and stimulates the synthesis and storage of fat.
