Guilty pleasure: наблюдать, как любители парковаться во дворе занимаются раскопками.
С приходом снега выросло количество дискуссий "Пешехонов vs автомобилисты". В основном с друзьями, конечно, потому что лезть с урбанистикой во внешние интернеты это примерно то же самое, что приходить с правилами застольного этикета к зэкам в тюрьму.
Интересно, что нередко в качестве аргументов используется сослагательное наклонение или фантастика в жанре альтернативной истории: "Вот если бы сделали бесплатный паркинг напротив дома...", "Вот надо было изначально иначе проектировать дворы..." и т.д. Самое обидное, что я с этими посылами полностью согласен, но никакого решения они не предлагают. Я даже больше скажу: государство тоже не особо много что может сделать с урбанистическими проблемами города. Разве что в Москве, где у чиновников больше управленческой воли, потому что в соседнем кабинете сидит Путин, встречающий в этой самой Москве всяких Такеров Карлсонов и Си Дзинь Пиней. Но в других местах администрация действует популистски, а люди, как мы видим, выбирают некрасивые и неудобные общественные и жилые пространства в угоду личной выгоде.
Тем приятнее, что эти же самые люди, за небольшими исключениями, сейчас берут в руки щётки и лопаты, во всех смыслах разгребая последствия своего выбора.
