This 1954 film Green Islands, made in conjunction with London County Council, shows us the parks and gardens as well as the leisure and sport facilities available to the public for their health and wellbeing. It informs us that there is twelve square miles of open spaces in London, as well as nearby Green Belt around the city, but the London plan involves facilities of twenty square miles in the future.

Take a stroll with me through the seasons and enjoy the parks and gardens of the 1950s.

The Chinese and Japanese Gardens reinterpreted

Together with Jurong Bird Park and Jurong Hill Park, the Chinese and Japanese Gardens made up an ensemble of parks and garden attractions developed in the Jurong of the 1970s. An emphasis was placed on making the new industrial town of Jurong a more attractive to live and play in. Some 12% of the initial land area allocated to the industrial endeavour was set aside for parks and gardens to give…

What's everyone's favourite flowers that aren't like. The normal ones. Like everyone's a fan of roses and sunflowers what's a more niche one. One you don't get in gift sets. Mine's sweet peas

Parks n Rec made it possible for me to have a safe space to go to escape abuse and assault.

Thank you Parks n Rec.

So someone stole the mounting pole that we use to dispense poop bags for dogs at one of the parks and I'm off-season so its none of my business. Except that someone posted about it on the community facebook group and said: "There's a lot of shady stuff that's going on there. I always thank the police when they drive through."

You thank the police? You thank the police why?

The police aren't the ones that replace the pole and the police aren't the ones that replace the tiny free library that someone set fire to, that's US. That's the parks people. Parks and Rec are the people you should be thanking. Only thing the police do are sit on their asses and watch people speeding down the street and not catch them.

"There should be plenty of money for security cameras with the police budget" YES! There is! But the police don't pay for the security cameras at the parks.

You know who pays for parks security cameras?

Parks and Rec pays for security cameras at the parks.

If you give money to the police for security cameras at the parks they'll grind it up into a fine powder and snort it with a hundred dollar bill that you also gave them just for being cops.

And I also don't want security cameras at the parks. People should allowed to just exist. Like I don't give a fuck if someone is sleeping on the bench up by the playground- he's literally 50 feet away from any kids and goddamn just let the man sleep.

"Always thank the cops?" For why? They didn't stop them from stealing the pole, either.

"Oops! Wrong spell-"

This was a headcanon a friend in discord suggested last year before the season finale. It's been in my WIP file dusting (like my other stuff 👀). So basically just some Collector magic shenanigans happened and poof! They got body swapped- 💥
