RealZero<p>Someone on Reddit posted this screenshot showing that future Kalos in the new (?) Pokemon game features anti-homeless benches / hostile architecture.</p><p>Reddit source: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/1izjtjg/future_kalos_has_antihomeless_benches/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/</span><span class="invisible">1izjtjg/future_kalos_has_antihomeless_benches/</span></a></p><p>This is too realistic. On the other hand, if that's an indication that in the next game I can fight asshat governments and contractors, fight urbanization and fight for better treatment of humans and Pokemon, it would be a Pokemon game I'd be interested in playing again. 😁</p><p><a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Pokemon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pokemon</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/HostileArchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HostileArchitecture</span></a></p>

Wilson<p>The lawn as hostile architecture:</p><p>I am thinking today about grass, and specifically the irrigation necessary to maintain this distinctly unnecessary feature, as a form of hostile architecture: not just a symbolic gesture of dominion, but also a technique of exclusion. </p><p>The use of sprinklers to discourage homeless encampments on private and public property is widespread—including in cities with tight restrictions on residential irrigation, and including excess irrigation to the point of actual damage to the landscape and the plants that purportedly require it. The priority is exclusion, and the grass is its alibi.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UrbanDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UrbanDesign</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ecology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ecology</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HostileArchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HostileArchitecture</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Homelessness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Homelessness</span></a></p>
