we have 15 minute cities everywhere and I want to see my aunt in Arizona, but I live in Seattle. Now what?

Take a plane, a train, or an automobile!

How do you feel about motorcycles, electric bikes and scooters?

I'm fine with them. I'd prefer that they stayed off sidewalks, but that's my only real thought on them.

Let's say that I hate Amazon and want to keep small businesses in business, we don't have that type of small business in my 15 minute city, do I bike 3 hours to the next one?

If you want to. I think a lot of the other commenters suggested using public transit. You could also drive. Maybe they do mail order?

You need transit, not everyone is 18-24, naive, and healthy with no kids

All of the comments I've read haven't mentioned transit, or have been transit positive.
