A theatre is perfectly fine. It doesn’t have to, and shouldn’t, be one of those suburban monstrosities with a huge parking lot and a dozen screens.

American universities are weird. My hometown has a large university and for the most part once you walk two minutes in any direction it just looks like a regular neighborhood. It helps to not have sports as part of the university.

American schools are big. There is no need for a huge stadium, and definitely no need for a lot of parking, especially considering that it sits empty most of the time. Schools on my home country are smaller, and we have more of them, and they have zero parking. Even the expensive private schools didn’t have any parking spots, the idea seems weird. Frankly American schools appear to intentionally waste space and aren’t integrated into their surroundings.

It’s more machine now than man. Twisted and evil.

It may not have been your intention but your comment came out dickish. Since your English is so good you should be able to phrase things better.

I like what someone else mentioned of bikes doing the last mile or two. Vans could do the last 20 miles or whatever, and bigger trucks or trains the long haul.

I would also not put vans and box trucks (not that you did, I’m speaking in general) in the same bag, a van is almost the same as a car when it comes to driving.

And of course if we could lower the demands on delivery drivers (and riders? Not sure what you call them on bikes) it would lower accidents. I recently saw one of the new Amazon electric vans, and while I liked some things (no air or sound pollution), the driver was accelerating like crazy every time.

Exactly, this post completely misses the point. The human in a delivery van is not even desirable. It would be great to completely automate this job. Let people enjoy their lives more instead of peeing in a bottle.

This is not redneck engineering, it’s how evening is attached to walls in the US as far as I can see. An ugly hole in drywall, and cover the rough edges with trim. I’m not sure what else you are looking for.

Something outside the wall could use minimal wood working and nails or command strips.

You mention you like picture frame mounts, so why don’t you use picture frames? You can get some used stuff for very cheap at Goodwill. Or get wood trim at home depot and cut to size.

Anything that’s not visible gets the glue gun treatment.

Immigration is complicated, and you are thinking only of “legal” immigration. It is extremely common for people to ignore those laws. And a job is not always required, no.

You (generic you) don’t need to really emigrate to a country to receive treatment, you could go with a tourist visa or visa free and get treated, then go back to the shitty country without universal healthcare where you live.

In my home country everyone has access to healthcare because it’s a human right, so by law it doesn’t matter what your immigration status is, you will get care. This includes cancer treatment, for free.

You don’t have to be rich, it takes a couple thousand dollars, the problem is to not become homeless afterwards…

Uh, what? Most Catholics aren’t circumcised, that’s an American thing.

It’s just the cost of a banana!

For all we know this is their luxury buy of the month.

Then you should do some reading. Latin America is the most urban region in the world.

We have small pockets with high density like Santiago. It has 1/3 of the population of NYC but 150% of the population density. And NYC is by far the densest US city.

The result of this is wide swaths of nature, I grew up used to seeing no buildings or anything else man made all the way to the horizon. When approaching my hometown we would first see the city glow, because you get actual darkness out in the country. In the US’ lower 48 only part of Oregon and Nevada get close to that.

Of course now US companies are once again trying to destroy our land with careless mining.
