No thanks, I use a cassette tape player to light up.
It doesn't actually have an integrated cigarette lighter, I just keep my mix tape in there.

malls were garbage in a lot of ways but if you had to stop at multiple stores, it was way better than the modern outdoor big box outlet hell where 90% of your time is spent navigating parking lots with no walking room

dunno if i'll be able to find it but there's a good article on the original vision of what the mall was supposed to be vs. what it became. in a nutshell: capital saw the plans and went :hmmyes: but we don't want people liking it *too* much they may just hang out there without spending money! gotta make sure it's just a bit uncomfortable so people keep moving / don't feel welcome

so if anyone was wondering why malls are considered torture devices for people on hallucinogens, there you go. you're much more sensitive to the point where those 'subtle' nudges aren't so subtle anymore

most cultures have plenty of 'philosophers' like diogenes. China has the crazy Taoist hermits, the islamic world has those Sufi guys, etc

classic case of pineapple derangement syndrome
King Wei of Chu, having heard of the ability of Chuang Chau, sent messengers with large gifts to bring him to his court, and promising also that he would make him his chief minister. Chuang-Tze, however, only laughed and said to them, "A thousand ounces of silver are a great gain to me; and to be a high noble and minister is a most honorable position. But have you not seen the victim-ox for the border sacrifice? It is carefully fed for several years, and robed with rich embroidery that it may be fit to enter the Grand Temple. When the time comes for it to do so, it would prefer to be a little pig, but it can not get to be so. Go away quickly, and do not soil me with your presence.

drat I remember buying the Ankh Morpork map way back when I was a kid reading the Pratchett books for the first time, it came folded up in a card case and when you unfurled it completely it was huge.

I queued up for hours in a Waterstones to get a copy of the discworld map signed by Pratchett, I still have it but I stored it badly so it's super faded on the edges.
