“be social” in this case means driving 20 minutes to Applebee’s and creepily hitting on the teenage waitress

I spent a good chunk of “lockdown” going to parks with friends and parents, and the parks were packed with people. Genuinely think people were more social in 2020 than in the few years prior lol.

The worst part are the canals that cut off neighbors from each other.

I don’t know if there If there were ever any colony-forming insect species that built this inefficiently, but if there were, they’re all extinct now.

Laws that only certain buildings can be built in certain areas for certain uses. A lot of American cities have laws that essentially force there to be single family homes with driveways, yards, and looping roads. Some zoning laws say buildings have to be constructed a certain distance apart from one another. Some will dictate all buildings in a certain area need parking lots of a certain size.

Typically zoning will split things between three things: commercial, residential, and industrial. Without zoning, buildings just go anywhere, regardless of use.

Houston is currently the largest city in America without formal zoning laws and it shows. Suburbs within walking distance of petroleum refineries.
