ie things you'd think the gammons scaring themselves shitless about the concept would care about

When I order something online (as long as it isn't something huge like a grand piano), it gets delivered to a nearby corner shop or supermarket, either to be held by staff or placed into an automated locker that opens via code you get sent via text message

Baby 0 series needs tender love and care. Instead of going 220km/h Baby 0 tops out at 22km/h. Baby 0 has not gotten all of their cars yet, so please be kind. Baby 0 is also still learning how to be on time, so please grant them some patience if they are late. Baby 0 series can grow up to be a big 0 series but only if you respond, "Ganbatte, Shinkansen-Kun!" in the comments.

Ganbatte, Shinkansen-Kun! (≧∇≦)/

Because the city was down for a metro – a three-line network, in fact, a formally and conceptually adventurous system that would have been the most expensive ever built in the Soviet Union, and which would have extended to every corner of the city and then snaked out beyond. First envisioned in the early ‘70s, it had a lengthy gestation period with many setbacks and delays, but when it finally seemed ready to go in the late ‘80s, everything fell apart as it came up against suddenly emboldened movements for autonomy and environmental protection. After a ferocious campaign of opposition from local residents and pressure groups conducted under the slogan “Metro Nav Draugs” (“The Metro Is Not a Friend”), the idea was quietly dropped.

So much brainworms in the baltics. A metro system is like the most efficient and environmentally friendly ways of transporting people.

Goldis tower Tehran, Iran : brutalism

“Interstate 11 would decimate habitat for cactus ferruginous pygmy owls, who play a vital role in maintaining the health of the Sonoran Desert,” Russ McSpadden, a Southwest conservation advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity, said in a press statement. “These small but fierce birds nest and raise their young in saguaro cacti and other desert trees that would be bulldozed for the highway’s construction. We’re fully committed to protecting these rare owls and their habitat from destruction.”

Everytime I think I know all stupid regulations that prevent good city building, a new one comes right around the corner :jane-jacobs-disgost:
