Thread 2835376

Anyone else avoids exploring abandoned structures because it makes you sad? Human existence has always been decay, upheaval and rebirth. I'm not stupid. The house I live in will at some point be the shitty part of town, probably condemned by an uncaring developer for gay investment properties. But still, it feels way worse for industrial buildings and mines. They got us here as a society. Their coal fuelled the little power and transportation our ancestors had even 4 generations ago. All that was done with next to no safety equipment, in steep shafts and w/ no guarantee it won't collapse. Knowing that, I just feel so sad over all of those involved; the equity holders who had to risk those operational risks in a pre-diversification financial economy at a shitty 2.5 beta.

Stay out of abandoned coal mines. Go explore abandoned gold mines out west instead.

That would force me to enter Switzerland. I said mean things about Swiss politicians and important people. I compared them to a different ethnicity. You know which one. Not sure if they could deport me. Not gonna risk it.

You’ve yet to convince anyone of that.

Turn that frown upside down, sister.

I always think of restoring stuff for tourists.
I don't think mines are usable because of structural and breathing issues - but allllll over Ruralia there's logging railroads that used to exist and still could if states put in the effort to add touristic infrastructure.

Autonomous electric tourist trains could run through every steep holler and enable even disabled and old people to experience what it would have been like during the logging boom era.

That sounds fucking awful
We need way less people not more

I can imagine there are a large number of missing people who got lost or had a cave in at some abandoned mines. Because realistically, who would assume that's where you were if you never told anyone you were going?
