Guess what the last commune I lived in was going to become?
So, I visited another one to maybe move into and asked around. They said it was also going to be turned into one.
What’s so hilarious about it is that everyone says it in such a matter of fact way. Like: yes, my home and that of my friends will be destroyed, our social group will break apart, and our cultural events that see a lot of visitors will also be a goner. But ya, it’s gonna be a parking lot!
