My go-to gas station just hit $5.99/gallon. The cheapest in my neighborhood is $5.89/gallon. I literally want to scream. It’s ridiculous across the west coast. Everything is so damn expensive. And I’m in Seattle, how tf are the gays in LA and the Bay doing???? Are you guys even alive? :saladga:

I'm in Portland and was dying at $5.02/gal and $60 to fill up the other day, but DAMN $6 is wild. 

I'm actually really scared because I do Lyft full time right now and this is going to eat a **** ton of my earnings :vegas:

In NZ it's curently the equivalent of $6.50 USD per gallon and it's barely started going up. We've always had higher prices than the US but now it's actually insane

I get so angry when I think about how the US voters and US president's actions have affected us so badly. Not our politics, not our war, but it's our problem. MAGA cunts can go to hell

Remember this moment and do not ever buy another US product again. That is really the only thing you can do that will make a difference.

TfL is semi-protected from fuel cost rises as its been transitioning to a fully electric fleet. 65% of its fleet is either fully electric or hybrid as of last year. 

The gays know how to party

I'm already trying to. As hard as it is I'm completely avoiding even looking on Amazon for anything. I don't think much else that I buy would come from the US anyway. But it's definitely on my mind

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

Trump supporters living sweet with their $3 gas 😭😭😭😭😭

It's pushing close to $4 in those areas too and the increase has been pretty controversial, as somebody who lives among them.

Btw I hope Americans remember who's to blame for this at the midterms :yennefer:

They won't. They'll just say "Well he has good policies otherwise" or just the good old "Not all Republicans are like Trump" and just circle the name with an R next to it.

In the US, last time I was looking for a new car, dealerships were quoting me $20,000 above sticker for an EV while gas prices were at a high. Trying to tell me I'll save so much on gas. Like yeah I've got the whole spreadsheet in front of me and I'm not gonna save money in gas just for the car payment to absorb it.

I never understood Americans dissatisfaction with gas prices when most of the world is paying $2 and more per LITER, so a quarter of gallon, and has been paying even before Trump

I like dancin', and ponies....

6 USD/gallon converts to 1.39 EUR/L

For reference, in Belgium the current price for Diesel is 2.28 EUR/L, which is 9.85 USD/gallom
Pertol is around 1.85 EUR/L which is 8 USD/Gallon

In The NEtherlands it's even more expensive
