#Arcologies
Liberalosm fundamentally precludes *change* We can't build anything because that would require seizing property from commercial landlords and bulldozing Manhattan and all ot's stupd skyrises to build Arcologies and that is ontologically impossible. There is no reality where you could take land from

The entire "Housing Crisis" focusing on building tiny four and five unit apartment buildings instead of 10,000 unit arcologies is, I think, evidence of Liberalism destroying our ability to imagine a future. This is the end of history. A cool giant concrete monolith rising in to the sky that houses

There comes a point where the efficiencies inherent in arcologies will be the only thing allowing humans to continue existing as collapse picks up speed.

So there’s that.

My longtermism consists of working to build cruelty-free arcologies and/or orbiting habitats where humanity can retreat from the biosphere. Eliminating its cruelty is probably impossible, but we can try to live without it.

It is! There are also arcologies and apparently people in space.

Let alone the fact that I love the idea of ancient arcologies, but the idea that Atlantis is a giant biomechanical whale carcass bullied up to the surface is delightful.

Any game where I can play a sufficiently screwed up fisherman the aces in my book.

Myself I’m often disappointed at the lack of arcologies in this 21st century.

I can’t solve the problem of predation. I can direct my energies toward humanity abandoning its pervasive natural cruelty. I might be wrong about arcologies as the technological solution, but they do clarify the problem.

I was recently turned onto Arcologies on Bandcamp. Some hella neat stuff there.

The concept of arcologies are associated with Saudi Arabia whenever I bring them up, so yeah I absolutely see that.

Jumped on this at the last minute, Alban Viard's sense of stimulating physical spaces is unmatched, and this one goes UP.

Zohran Mamdani is playing a pick up game of SimCity and popping all the achievements and ordinances for fun.

I expect arcologies by his third year.

We'll know for sure it was lost when we start to see corporate arcologies and private armies masquerading as security teams... 😬

I just meant regarding arcologies... but I guess those might have been inspired by this too

Wouldn’t hate arcologies, but again, tech tree

I remember positing in some scifi writing the possibility for newly established cities on distant planets relying heavily on arcologies to limit urban spread...and then realizing you can't go too far in this direction because vertical spread is also a thing.
