I see 7 people getting a coffee in the top photo.
I dunno, sharing a single coffee with 30 other people sounds like a pain whether everybody's in cars or not.
Honestly seems more of a critique of grind culture we've got in the US. Used to be you had time in the morning or afternoon to enjoy a cafe but now you've got a job you can't afford to quit in a town you can't afford to live in and need to drive an hour to get there with gas you can't afford... that last part because there are no trains anymore, too.
Yeah, halfway through that, I admit it's also still bullshit car culture nonsense, too. Lol
Bring back third spaces!!
I love this youtube channel and this guy's gentle critique of the concept of third space, in favor of alternative goals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E5MegoW2pA
Nah that top photo is at most 10 people getting a coffee.
Coffee too expensive to get and not enough money to enjoy not just coffee, life as well.
Cars suck
In the upper photo it's more like 15 people at most. The inefficiency of cars astounding once you actually start paying attention to it. Moving to cars for every transit mode is in the 10 ten worst decisions humanity has ever made.
The top three for me are cars, bathroom attendants, and the brassiere
The other 15-20 are behind the camera, causing a grid lock traffic jam.
