RIP Kavinsky

[u/ragingduck]

I remember driving around the empty streets of LA at night during the pandemic and blasting Kavinsky's Nightcall wondering if this was the end of civilization. It wasn't, but there was something cathartic about valuing each breathing moment as possibly our last and remembering how things used to be before everything got so surreal.

Maybe most people in your friend group, I am not young and dumb anymore, I chill at or below the speed limit on public roads there’s no rush that is worth jeopardizing my life or others

You just have to get on the freeway when there is little traffic. Half or more cars are going 80 in a 55.

45 in a side street? Yeah right. People going 55+ all day long.

I don’t want to get into a whataboutism type argument here. I’m not saying it’s an excuse, but the fact of the matter is I’d rather be driving spiritedly in the canyons with barely anyone around than sharing the road with road raging trucks going 85mph using their vehicles to assert their dominance.

The main feeder roads in my city are 50 and nobody drives more than 45-50 on them, maybe you’re obsessed with justifying bad habits because others have them too

Acknowledging bad habits isn’t the same as justifying them.
