With that much stone they should install drainage grates in every room so you can just spray the place down instead of mopping/dusting/sweeping

They do. I think some people in this thread are swinging too far the other way - yes, some cultures normalize eating cats and dogs. It is what it is, I’m not a vegan and I don’t believe there’s anything intrinsically wrong with it. A Burmese family in a trailer park near where I live got the cops called on them by the local Crazy Cat Karen for catching and eating strays a few years back.

The problem is not one of “barbaric” foreigners needing to be kept out; it’s a failure to educate new immigrants on American customs beyond their ability to parrot jingoistic slogans, remember the names of presidents and holidays, and denounce Communism.

Wow that sucks

AI art is going to do the same thing to fantasy art that digital art did: completely destroy the immersive feeling for the benefit of rich assholes who want to pump out slop quicker and cheaper

The main problem is zoning laws - too much land zoned for single-family residences only, a lack of mixed-use zoning and walkability, and heavily restrictive laws on apartment buildings (height limits, floorplan requirements such as the infamous dual-stairway rule, etc ).

These laws exist because of NIMBY’s - people with an existing stake in the community who don’t want noisy transit, tall buildings being an “eyesore”, affordable housing bringing in more poor people.

The solution, of course, is to [REDACTED] all the NIMBY’s.

Don’t worry, you’re still serving an important role in the economy!

As part of the “reserve army of labor”, by your very existence you drive down the wages of other workers in your field, based on the threat that they could be replaced with you.
