Right? It looks like there was an attempt (gold star) at hostility but they still wanted it to look somewhat aesthetically pleasing and mostly forgot about the hostile part? Or maybe I’m just not seeing most of the hostile part, that’s what I’m trying to figure out.
It’s hard to believe you’re not trolling.
I swear I’m not. It’s entirely possible that I’m being slow, but I’m really just trying to understand so I can identify these things better in the future. Because I seriously don’t get it, there’s still plenty of room to lie down between them?
I feel like we’re talking past each other. I’m wondering how the weird human-shaped things added on top of the vents constitute hostile architecture - how are they meant to to discourage people from sleeping there? This is me trying to learn, I’m very aware that sleeping on vents isn’t exactly comfortable but how do these things make it less so?
The vents are still accessible though? And you have these nifty mannequins to hang your stuff?
Edit: honest question, possibly unnecessary joke.
I apologise for not including a tone indicator, I do try but I keep thinking I’m more obvious than I am. It was genuinely meant as a joke, as in “no, lalalala, go away, I don’t want to hear it”.
Well, hiding it behind “protecting your children (as a roof would)”.
But then you wisely decided to shut your dirty mouth.

Wot? Perplexity ai, that app that I have on my phone and that I sometimes ask random things when I want to be angry at something and that gives entirely useless and wrong answers 95% of the time? lollmaoeven
The Wikipedia article?
Doesn’t matter. Green Mario is perfect. Working class, deals with literal shit daily, is scared of everything, and still does the thing. Red Mario has it easy, he’s not scared of CEO Bowser, he doesn’t have to overcome his fear - because he’s confident. Which is cool, good for him. But Red Mario is unachievable as a role model. Be more like Green Mario who does it scared, who does it alone, who does it anyway.
Yes. And I’m tired of pretending otherwise.
And? CEOs seem to be welcome there.
We’re in agreement :)
Robin Hood was also Robin of Loxley, originally a nobleman. It is entirely possible, however unlikely, for people born into money/status to turn out decent.
Okay, so what I’m hearing is: “Mimimi people disagreed with me waaaaaah.” Is that an accurate summary of what you’re trying to say?
That is definitely a take.
OP, you know you were VERY free to use any of the other options, yes? The thing is that billions of people had to be provided with some kind of protection. It’s too expensive to give the most ideal mask to everybody, you find a compromise between adequate protection and cost - and you also implement other protective measures, such as social distancing and lockdowns, to compensate. Which, I don’t know if you’re old enough to remember, is what happened.
Ah, I see what you’re saying. That might be a way of looking at it.
Wouldn’t that make many (most?) news sites social media since they let you comment on articles? (IMDB dodged a bullet?)
I assume what you’re implying is that you can’t put a tent there. Okay, why not fucking say that then? Homeless people around here rarely use tents, for reasons that I do not know because I am privileged enough to not be homeless, and they could probably just arrange their stuff around those shapes, put their mattress between them and go to sleep - which is why “tent” isn’t the first thing that popped into my head.
Thank you for making me jump through hoops to understand a thing.
