Even with near unlimited money the ruling class can only build unimaginative, ugly things.

I really hate that we live in a world where someone like him can exist.

He's building gualgs to house G*mers. Mr. Beast will lead the revolution!

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 41 points 2 months ago

It looks like a ww2 pow camp.

Double-wides and I think that wall is shipping containers. Very cheap cult compound

He's only worth a measly 500 million, can't be luxury everywhere

probably for convenience, wouldn't shock me if beast pulls the starbucks ceo and flies in 3 times a week rather than stay anywhere near his own content creation

The first 24 people to get out of the a380 that overruns the runaway into the village get to live within the rubble

Looks like it’s been shut down. You can see an X painted onto it. Probably don’t wanna land there unless you hate having your license

Although, it the airport itself is still open, it would be just the plot of land MrExploitation would buy considering airport-adjacent property is much cheaper and he can send the poors to breathe in all the cancerous exhaust there

Looks like a general aviation airport, in which case most planes would be burning 100LL gasoline (the LL stands for “low lead” - so called not because it has low lead content (it’s very high) but because it’s a bit lower than its predecessor).

I used to work as a flight instructor so I was around the stuff all the time. It’s, uh, not good for you.

What I mean to say is everyone living there is gonna get lead poisoned

Edit: This is it

So uhh, living there is gonna take a couple decades off your life expectancy

I’ve never dealt with motorboat fuel so I can’t really compare, but I can say that it’s not “horrible” in a certain sense - the stuff isn’t sticky and evaporates pretty quickly, it’s easy to wash off, it’s not sticky like jet fuel (it’s almost water-like), it doesn’t smell bad and it’s not as combustible as jet fuel.

In the health sense - well, have you ever bought canned 1970s LA air and breathed it in all day long? That’s what you’re doing to your lungs. And if you handle it up close, most folks don’t wear gloves and it readily absorbs into the skin. It’s basically what happened to the boomers in the 60s but today.

Suburban ideology

Is this actually real?

looks like someones been taking their squidgame pills

Though it looks like something out of a dystopia, it's actually the set for Beast Games, an upcoming reality TV show created by YouTuber MrBeast in partnership with Amazon MGM Studios that will be filming in Toronto under a cloud of controversy.

I don't normally support saturation bombing of civilian centers

I am willing to make one exception

my favorite kind of town is the kind of town that has zero shade anywhere

[-] Sauerkraut@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 2 months ago

They wont allow trees within 100ft of (most of) the roads where I lived because drunk drivers kept driving into them and getting hurt... And i hate is so fucking much.

With that much money, he could just build an actually normal and useful town.
