Does this make the Jem’Hadar the local crack heads that like to ransack the place?

Does this make Rom’s minefield just a bunch of speed bumps?

      Shopping malls were pretty cool back then though, an actual place to hang out! Nothing like the bleak liminal wastelands of today.

        we could make local spaces cool to hang out in, but like that takes committees and shit. you gotta organize and right now a lot of us got bigger things to build than parks.

          Yes absolutely! And hopefully when there’s time again to work on the smaller things we can build third spaces that don’t rely on proximity to consumerism and capital.

            that don’t rely on proximity to consumerism and capital.

            my dude, i was part of organizing and filling the first few years of a concert series that was our city park a better third space. ten years ago they started charging admission. it was just $3 a concert this year, but still we fundraised for that stage so it would be free this is bullshit.

              They’re so threatened by socialism they compulsively require the performance of consumerism.

              I’m guessing the $3 basically only covered the cost of having an admission/ticket system in the first place?

      If I had a nickel for every 90s show about a shopping mall in space, I’d have two nickels. That’s not a lot, but it’s funny that it happened twice.
