It’s the lack of third places in the US (and increasingly everywhere else). The only place they can unconditionally exist at, outside of their house, is their car.
I think this is the real reason that carbrain has so thoroughly overtaken America. It’s our last remaining free space outside our house. You will get trespassed or ticketed for loitering if we hang out anywhere in public
What sort of third places exist in other countries? I’ve always wondered. I’m in the US and we have a lot of parks, most of which have benches where plenty of folks go to eat lunch or gather, but that’s only feasible when the weather is nice. It would be amazing to have a third place with heat or AC where you can hang out. The library works in some cases but obviously you can’t eat there and you have to be quiet.
Yeah I guess I would consider a “park” to be “any public outdoor place”. For some steps leading down to the water and a bench it would be a small park, or possibly a “public access site” but that’s still a type of park.
And yes, I do live in one of those “ice holes” haha. But to be honest, when I went to look it up I thought the numbers would be closer because you’re at a similar latitude but I forgot just how mild of a climate Europe really has.
In these third places in Europe, can I film there? Would it be rude or possibly illegal to film there?
Y’all are wildly reading into something that’s pointless. You’re trying to beat someone down in your own class and finding ways to allow a divide in to separate you. These people reviewing food in their car aren’t your enemy. City planners, department of transportation, landlords, and CEOs are your enemy. They’re the ones that make the system the way it is that necessitates people having cars.
A third place isn’t going to solve this. No third place is going to be set for filming. Is going to be socially comfortable for filming. Just let these people exist and move the fuck on.

Okay so you just listed off public parks I think? Which, believe it or not, we do have in the states. In plentiful amounts too.
Also, the coldest temp ever recorded in Stockholm was -28c, and this winter we had over 40 days colder than that haha

Even then police will come by to see what you’re doing.

European third spaces often have street performers doing all kinds of crazy stuff, so no, it wouldn’t be rude to film your little review.
Yeah there’s no such thing as street performers here in the states either. Well, at least our buskers don’t pick pocket people

I’ll take the pickpockets over the mass shooters.
