Sounds so Japanese....
Livin’ the dream in California.
Meanwhile, I enjoy 32 acres and a nice home in KY for half the price and virtually non-existent real estate taxes.
‘Course, I don’t have a Starbucks or needle exchange nearby, but I have a Keurig in the kitchen and a box of 16 penny nails in the shed.
So I’m good...
Pod People on Halloween.
Communal pods?
Human ant farms.
The glorified barracks look like what low skilled migrant workers working in the Middle East live in or living quarters at Chinese factories
Mao treated his People like ants.
Work or get stepped on. No thinking allowed.
The Japanese have more privacy in their capsule hotels. The price is more reasonable as well. I stayed in one when I wanted to check out Kobe before accepting a job offer. It wasn’t bad at all.
$1200 a month for a small cubicle living space doesn’t leave much to clean the human crap off your shoes you risk stepping in every time you walk down an SF street.
So it’s an expensive doss house. Funny how “Progressivism” always leads back to re-living past problems and everyone should now live in essentially Victorian era slums especially with diseases that had been wiped out returning and people living in close proximity in pods will be especially susceptible.
For added realism they could make one painted haze grey and put it on gimbals and make it pitch up and down.
..and paradise waiting, just five miles away from wherever I am.
I charge my 19-year-old $150/month to share a bedroom with her sister. If a person wants to quit school and continue living here, she has to pay.
Two young ladies sharing a two-bedroom apartment was common when I was younger.
I rented a room from a woman who had two guys split the rent of a three-bedroom townhouse with her. She lived in the master bedroom.
DC has a big bedbug problem.
