Doctor Memory@rodhilton that’s certainly one way to characterize the largest and most important advance in white-collar labor productivity in our lifetimes. Who the hell wrote that? Name and shame!
Office leases are deadweight loss. Pass it on.
FoolishOwl@memory @rodhilton Sometimes death and decay are necessary for new life.
@foolishowl @rodhilton I think it was @sarahtaber who said “I’m not sure if I’m a raging socialist or if I’m just so ride or die for capitalism that I want capitalists to experience it too” and I think about that a lot at moments like this. Oops your sure-bet investment in commercial real estate actually turned out to be a loser? Welcome to the NFL, kid.
@memory @rodhilton @sarahtaber I get the impression that a lot of the built environment is built with an implicit assumption that it's supposed to be there forever -- or at least that dealing with it in the future is someone else's problem -- rather than with a lifecycle in mind. Like, if we reduce the use of cars, what are we going to do with all this concrete and asphalt?
I'm feeling morbid today, but I'm also thinking there's too much childish refusal to think about death.
