    Suburban/stripmall decline. Hey that mud is gross, pave it. Hey I don’t want to mow that, pave it. Hey everyone is already driving over that, pave it.

    Now that cement is super expensive you don’t see it as much, but for a while, the answer to any problem was “pave that sumbitch.”

      Hey I don’t want to mow that, pave it.

      Hey I hate stroads and car brained infrastructure too but honestly fuck mowing lawns, I relate to that instinct.

        except the solution is very trivial: replace the lawn with succulents. 0 maintenance and it actually fucking looks nice.
