Empathy is just being human and compassionate. I see nothing wrong with that bud.

I meant that I don't think its over rated.But he was saying it was overrated. He didn't say it doesn't exist.
Good point.i don't think empathy (which i take to mean compassion) can ever be overrated. however, the comment sounds like two people in messed up situations enabling each others bad habits. maybe i read that wrong

we're meant to have the metro come past our house. it's a slightly unpopular opinion with some of my neighbours to want them to just build the fucking thing.Public transport is shit in Ireland.
I miss driving. Public transport is shit in Ireland.
any OTHER, or ANOTHER, not both.I've seen MUCH worse public transport systems but I'll also go way out of my way to avoid getting on a busy Dublin bus if there's at all any another method of transport available.
While I suppose it’s nice to hear there’s worse out there, it doesn’t really get around the fact that shit public transport affects the worst off in society the most.I've seen MUCH worse public transport systems but I'll also go way out of my way to avoid getting on a busy Dublin bus if there's at all any another method of transport available.
My opinion is that public transport in Ireland should be like sewage pipes: not there to make a profit, there to work with as few problems as possible and free for all paid for by tax (maybe a nominal fee, MAYBE) and also plentiful.While I suppose it’s nice to hear there’s worse out there, it doesn’t really get around the fact that shit public transport affects the worst off in society the most.
Having to leave your house hours early and get home hours late if you work, while trying to look after a family or maintain any kind of work/life balance is hellish. Getting into the city centre is one thing but moving around the periphery of Dublin is impossible. Getting to the airport or the major train stations is challenging, major institutions like any university that isn’t TCD (including hospitals, Beaumont is essentially on another planet for me), or an affordable supermarket can be huge hassle (I can shop locally but trying to feed a family out of the local convenience store is not sustainable).
If you have a disability that affects your movement or a buggy, then you’re doubly fucked. Even getting a taxi that can take a wheelchair can take 5-6 times longer than a regular one based on the FreeNow predicted times. Then I start to think about moving around Ireland as opposed to moving around Dublin and my head melts.
