    i often wonder what super power i'd opt for given the choice between them and for a while there it was mind reading but i'm happy to announce that my new choice would be the ability to architecturally dehumanize anyone instantly.

    @Garrett Martin: What is this :: a city for ants? How can we be expected to have Grand Paris if people can't even fit inside the buildings? The city has to be at least three times bigger than this!

    Jesus. You know what else they don't have in San Fran right now? Starships.


    I grew up in D.C. and how many films are there that take place in the now where they have people meeting with some important government official, or shady cabal in some high rise tower across the street from the Capital? Plenty. I should go Vlog about that.
