Dropping children off at school. The vast majority of US schools have dedicated busses to take kids to school but some parents find it more convenient to drop their kids off at school instead of waiting for the bus.
People do in Sweden too, though dedicated school buses are mainly a thing out in the countryside. But knowing that the US is car centred is different from realising that almost no kids taking public transport or walking/being walked to school means that you have to wait in line in your car to drop kids off. I don't think my dad had to wait for more than one car to get out of the way before dropping me off the few times he did, in 12 years of schooling
I would definitely prefer a bus, but kiddo goes to school in a different neighborhood and there is no bus to/from our house. Definitely not more convenient to drive 25m each way, twice a day 😆

Saw this happen to a possum in Australia. We named him Crispy

Well, at least there was a (fallout) shelter nearby.

“Uff, that car almost run over me; my guardian angel must be watching over me” - squirrel’s last thought

Holy hell, that squirrel evaporated. For reference that kind of arc has an energy similar to 2 or 3 highway speed car crashed per second.

The good news is he probably never felt a thing.

Wow, I didn't even notice the squirrel. Nice spot.

Is the squirrel going to be ok ?

School line? Is that an American thing?
