Of course I don't think the local supermarkets are particularly quaint (heck no), with their cold lights and shelves. But we have to realize that they are one of the few places we and lots of our neighbourhood folks share in visiting. Markets have reflected society since forever.

It is haunting to see this hollowed out, following the trend of people becoming cold and distant and antisocial and uncaring. Frankly, to fill these spaces with inhumanity means to kill society. To fake the fabric of what connects us.

The market no longer sings.

The sound of the shared space that is the time in which we are alive, together. There are songs played across generations, and songs that spark within just the one because of something that happened in only that lifetime. /3

Markets are a shared space which sings with human life, and music is part of that. This is true because no market seeks to ban music in a bid to save costs. They won't choose silence. Songs are life, both ageless repeats of experiences & dreams and the current tone and trend of the times. /2

No such thing as ethical consumption, but those get some measure of payment & there're ways towards fairer purchases. The AI stuff is just wholesale about not paying humans while profiting off humans. No economy versus a lesser economy.

I really fear they're all going to do it... where are we supposed to buy if we don't want to buy from thieves?

Oh no... who do we need to hound?

Little girl, pointing at Torca: I wanna play with that one!

Me, delighted and terrified of the choice: When you're older I can explain why we don't touch Torca. (but yes he's so pretty I know I wanted him for about 10 years myself I know how you feel he's super enigmatic)

Bonus points if they were playing the loco-motion on speaker.

Those plates! That flower cup, that red and green mini cup, those acer leaves on the plate... is that metal lid a sphere with folded up square edges integrated? There's so much to see there!
