when it becomes so ghetto its beautiful
>>2951975isn't this the one that killed like 30 hipsters in a fire, and spawned the right wing safety squad?
never mind, pic related was the pallet stairs that killed 36 hipsters in the oakland ghost ship fire
>>2951981How can we make sure any place with a bunch of hipsters is a fiery death trap?
>>2951985places like that tend to let people squat rent free, so the right wing safety squads were reporting lots of things to fire safety authorities and getting buildings shut down, at least a few lazy good for nothings had to go live with their parents again.
>>2951982man I did my service in the safety squad but I don't remember ever seeing that picture, that's crazy. to keep this diy related, remember when reddit recommended homemade caltrops to stop us our efforts?
>>2951975ChatGPT how do I build a new stair case this weekend
Wood is beautiful. Those stairs are an abomination.
>>2951985Give them pallets, spirit based wood treatments and it'll take care of itself
>>2952300thanks for posting that, made me giggle
>>2951982>oakland ghost ship fire>80-100 attendees>36-45% kill raterespectable
>>2951982I know it's tacky but I think theghost ship was charming in a way. I hung out in spaces like that in Florida when I was a retarded hipster. The city I was in put the hammer down on them swiftly, actually around the time that fire happened. Wonder if it was related.Zoning codes vindicated once again
>>2952409I also think it's quite charming when retarded hipsters and libtards burn in a massive fire. We're not so unlike, me and you.
>>2952300The oakland ghost ship dump wasn't even DIY or maker-space; nobody in there was learning any practical skills.
>>2952465there were (and still are) many unsafe diy spaces out there, our noble quest was to save dumb leftoids from themselves and we did have a bunch of successes
>>2951975I don't hate it but I'd be mainly worried about tripping on the holes on each step after a quart of JD on the wknds
>>2952509What was meant by 719 FLEX?
>>2952547719 is the area code for SE colorado, might be that
>>2951985just let them do their thing. havent you ever been to any punk or oldschool lgbt venue ever? they're all deathtraps. and as a gay man who has been to modern gay bars but seen "behind the scenes", not at the gloryholes but at their a/v wiring and how they run their bar equipment and such, those are even bigger death traps, just only to the people who work there.>>2952509i would rather not instantly die upon entering a space to do hobby work but i kinda wish safety ninnies didn't kill conventional maker spaces too. ONE RETARD burns down a neighborhood with a homemade car battery welder thing and now i can't pay 25.99 to use a drill press for the one month of my life out of three that i'll need one. fuck this straight earth
