I'm taking this one module this term that's basically "playful space" urban design consulting 101 and it makes me painfully aware of how neurodivergent I am.
#also im really trying not to let my previous experience in consulting color my viewpoint but its hard#especially when one of the instructors (we have like four) is so similar to so many project managers i have worked with before#as in she'll go on tangents and not tell us the actual thing she wants us to learn and focus on#and that shes already asking for our ideas for the space when we have not been to the space yet#also that kind of rubs me the wrong way because the whole point of this module is to work with the local community...#on what they want/need in the space so why are we coming in with our own views before we've even had the full picture?#that specific exercise made me feel all types of uncomfortable because this space is supposedly used by working and lower class people#and it felt way too close to us more wealthy (and most of us international students) coming in and exerting our viewpoint over the locals#and i dont want to fuck with imperialism-lite like that#late night ramblings
