I saw these and I thought they were so cute, like I genuinely wanted one for myself because it looked like something out of Subnautica. Then I go to the website and lo- it's made for fucking landlords.

They even have a calculator that calculates rent for the pods.

They'll never regulate this shit, you'll have an absolute frothingfash putting like 10 in a house and charging every head full rent.

Yeah, that's what they are: a novelty. Bc who the hell is out for at least 16 hours a day and only comes home to sleep?

It's impractical for most people. I can see how truckers maybe might use one. But then again, a room would just be so much better and won't smell like total ass

From second hand accounts, this is the case for many people in East and southeast Asia. Apartments are often tiny, and cooking is a hassle in them, so most people eat all their meals outside, spend as much time outside as possible because home is for sleeping. This is the most common arrangement for young, single people.

I meant in America, where this hypothetical pod for landleeches is being marketed

Oh yeah, i understood that. Amerikkkan cities and towns are definitely not the place where this shit should be reasonable (it shouldn't be reasonable anywhere anyways)
