I am a transit maximalist. I believe that when a girl hornyposts from the other side of the country; I should be able to get on a maglev and arrive in her city before the prog is out of her system for no more than $40. All policy should bend to serve this goal.

      I mean, 2 girls kicking it wild style tends not to result in children that often, but God bless them for trying.

        Hmmm. You think maybe we let men use the rails too? Like dirty hobos? Big ol sweaty hobos, confined in a freight car for hours on end with nothing else to do?

        Averaging it out, 25-45% of potential pairings would result in compatible gametes so I say let’s get some maglevs.

        Just like how the train caused massive changes to human genetics, 40 minute booty calls would do even more.

        Good. GOOOD! There’s too many people on Earth, it is oh so so crowded. We aren’t appreciated as is, and now you want to squeeze more people on it?

        Our governments go out of their way to subtly make every aspect of our lives a living hell on purpose, don’t be fooled. You can tell by thr red tape, the stoplight for pedestrians turning red just a moment before they can make it accross, while cars have a long green period.

        The way partialy disabled people are expected to work as much as an able-bodied person, even if just having their disability diagnosed makes them unemployable.

        The way they paternalize you by restricting drugs that aren’t even narcotic, stimulant, hallucinogen or addictive, just so you can’t treat yourself, and you have to go through the corrupt medical system, and play the price is right with bribes.

        Maybe the doctor is a moron, or just feels like fucking you over, tf do you do?

        You are blamed for needing anything, and if you don’t need anything, people just asume you are where you are because you wasted money, or got high, or whatever.

        Your co-workers with smiling faces, actively see you as a threat, and try to fuck you over in any way possible, the people you have to see every day.

        Why push a child into this world?

    Maglev shit, we need to be investing in teleport technology. Instead, any breakthroughs are being hushed up by Big Border.

      What is unrealistic here is the target price, $40 for maglev to anywhere looks like a steal

      Depends on where the horniness is coming from, if it’s from prog(esterone?) like the op said and it’s tied to hormonal cycles then you maybe got a day to get over there.

        Yeah, surprisingly even at those speeds, you’re looking at over 4 hours from one side of the US to another.

          which is 2 hours 20 minutes faster than flying from jfk to lax, and the prog has a half life of between 9-16 hours with peak levels between 1-8 hours so in theory you could take the train and still have 4-5 hours to romp

        No, you misunderstand. It is literally impossible, with current technology, to achieve the desired metric because of the sheer size of some countries.

        Even if you somehow managed to have a fleet of Blackbirds at your disposal for instant public transport, it would take well over an hour to reach one end of the US/Canada to the other, just as an example.

        Hawaii is a 10/11 hour flight from certain parts of the us.

        Alaska is 11/12 hours to Florida, 14/15 to Puerto Rico.

        Even if you don’t want to include those, it’s 6/7 hours from Seattle to Miami.

        Yukon to Newfoundland is 6/7 hours.

        These exclude boarding times and such.

        Even if you went with current high speed trains, and exclude continental breaks between land masses, you’re talking about quite a few hours.

        Good luck staying horny that long.

          What part of “all policy should bend to serve this goal” did you not understand? We’re not done 'til we have $40 hypersonic suborbital flights, and if it takes a greater than Manhattan Project or Apollo level of effort to get there then, damn it, that’s what we’ll have to do!
