Ugh, redditors. Figures.

Because you can’t even come up with your own talking points and need to import everything from the other side of the Atlantic. Bit sad.

Maybe elaborate, just to humour me? It’s Christmas, you know!

I don’t get it.

Cold, barren FalseAdvertisingLand with depressingly shrunken glaciers or the warm, tropical island with direct access to Caribbean waters all around? Hmmmm.

The usual, really. Get a nice buzz going on coke and rum, draw, build whatever’s behind door 24 in the Bluebrixx Star Trek advent calendar, make the husband watch Richard II and Hamlet (maybe even Much Ado About Nothing) with me, rewatch Severance season 1, watch a bunch of bad movies. Mostly watch stuff, basically.

I don’t know anymore.

Goddammit I didn’t even click and it’s stuck in my head, AGAIN.

“Look at this cool thing I found!” It can just be nice to share stuff with other people. There doesn’t need to be a deeper reason, it’s a function of humans being social animals.

This includes motivations such as wanting to discuss the thing with other people, to compare your own view with theirs, or simply to satisfy the need to yell at someone.

Edit: typo

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.

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.

lol yeah, don’t worry, bit of confusion helps keep the brain agile. Very interesting video, thanks for sharing!

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?

Oh the browser addon. Goshdarnit. (watching now)

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?

Good lord, this looks impossible to keep clean.

The vents are still accessible though? And you have these nifty mannequins to hang your stuff?

Edit: honest question, possibly unnecessary joke.

That’s not very good for your skin, Bru- Batsy.

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”.

Ah, you added context. I fail to see however how you think your title was meant to convey “I thought it would be standard Star Trek, but animated so I was disappointed because my expectation was different”.
