kids dont play outside anymore because there’s air conditioning, cable tv, internet, and video games. for some reason sitting on your neighbors porch and watching flies fuck doesn’t seem as attractive to them anymore, as sociable as that might have seemed to boomers at the time. The park near my house is always empty, the city recently renovated it and everything, still hardly ever a soul in there. Building a park in your formerly segregated suburban gated community won’t all of a sudden turn it into an epicenter of cultural learning and activity. Might give the skater kids another place to huff spraypaint but that’s it.
perhaps the heavy handed mod team of c/fuck_cars will be willing to forgive my many transgressions and unban me when they realize I am actually against the ever increasing suburbanization of the planet. the bedroom communities, existing just outside most major cities, with little commercial activity other than these rest stop alleys. Of course there’s nothing for kids to do because it wasn’t built for them it was built for their wealthy racist parents to flee the inner cities, now that they are no longer segregated that is. Freeways still need to exist though, even with well funded public transport. Atleast until stores figure out a way to stock their shelves through teleportation or catapult.
The kids can’t leave after school, since they dont own cars, they can barely walk to the overpriced convenience store on rest stop alley. The store 10 miles down the road is much cheaper but this is the one by the freeway and upcharges for convenience, it is a convenience store after all. But unfortunately the ole timey mom and pop general store that totally took down their whites only sign a long time ago, sadly went out of business and blamed the new fangled convenience store with its bright signs and prices that simultaneously are so low they can’t compete, and so high they’re ripping off the whole community, truly a sign of the ills of the modern era.
