@SmudgeTheInsultCat Are you *sure* it's not 2-persons benches, really close so you can keep warm during cold days??
@SmudgeTheInsultCat More-likely anti-social anti-homeless benches where it is extremely uncomfortable to sleep on them.

@hittitezombie @SmudgeTheInsultCat Finland is one of the best countries at actually housing people though

Homelessness in Finland affected 4396 people at the end of 2021.[2][1][a] Long-term homelessness affected 1318 people.[2]

Finland and Denmark are the only European Union countries where homelessness is currently falling.[3] The country has adopted a Housing First policy

@SmudgeTheInsultCat i feel like these work like urinals and can't use two adjacent ones. still a bit too close.
@SmudgeTheInsultCat Here in South Africa we call them chairs.
@SmudgeTheInsultCat to prevent the homelsee from sleeping there...
