Once you normalize it, it does change the future. Look at the mess we're in today because we collectively ignored the writing on the wall.

Alright, this is an obvious copy of a japanese box hotel, even the prices are the same with ~25 dollars at night. What I don't like about it are the non isolated rooms, a silent and save nights rest is not too much to ask. What I do like is the community living, have your own space and share some facilities and appliances. Could save a lot of energy, materials and combat loneliness. I'd love to see appartement blocks where entire floors are living groups where you apply to check if you get along with these people and rent a room. Like a student housing for adults.
