gollark: The UK apparently has anomalously high population density so [RURAL AREA REDACTED] isn't very isolated compared to US rural areas, given that you can feasibly drive across England in 10 hours or so.
gollark: Personally, I do not actually have ”guns” and I use headphones for music.
gollark: Anyway, ignoring the whole pandemic situation, which is probably temporary, I would really much prefer to be in a city than [RURAL AREA REDACTED], where I am now.

gollark: Probably!
