Inequality + Slums in Velaris

kinda 👀 at the people who think slums and designated Poor™️ areas are supposed to be normal, especially in acotar w Velaris. They *shouldn't* to be normal especially for VeLAriS

The UN Definition of a slum:

.... individuals living under the same roof lacking one or more of the following conditions: access to improved water, access to improved sanitation, sufficient living area, housing durability, and security of tenure

Slums form and grow in different parts of the world for many different reasons. Causes include rapid rural-to-urban migration, economic stagnation and depression, high unemployment, poverty, informal economy, forced or manipulated ghettoization, poor planning, politics, natural disasters, and social conflicts.

Rural–urban migration

Many people move to urban areas primarily because cities promise more jobs, better schools for poor's children, and diverse income opportunities than subsistence farming in rural areas.

this doesn't really apply to Velaris as it is a closed in separated city from the rest of the night court

Urbanization

Some scholars suggest that urbanization creates slums because local governments are unable to manage urbanization, and migrant workers without an affordable place to live in, dwell in slums.

Rapid urbanization drives economic growth and causes people to seek working and investment opportunities in urban areas.

However, as evidenced by poor urban infrastructure and insufficient housing, the local governments sometimes are unable to manage this transition. This incapacity can be attributed to insufficient funds and inexperience to handle and organize problems brought by migration and urbanization.

again, I don't see thus happening due to it being a private and secluded city unless they're taking in a rapid amount of SA survivors- the only outsiders brought into the city

Poor house planning

Insufficient financial resources and lack of coordination in government bureaucracy are two main causes of poor house planning.

This would mean that Rhysand is not paying attention to evenly distributed wealth or mindful government oversight in poor house planning. If there are low income folks, adequate housing is not being provided

Colonialism and segregation

Some of the slums in today's world are a product of urbanization brought by colonialism. For instance, the Europeans arrived in Kenya in the nineteenth century and created urban centers such as Nairobi mainly to serve their financial interests. They regarded the Africans as temporary migrants and needed them only for supply of labour.

The housing policy aiming to accommodate these workers was not well enforced and the government built settlements in the form of single-occupancy bedspaces. Due to the cost of time and money in their movement back and forth between rural and urban areas, their families gradually migrated to the urban centre. As they could not afford to buy houses, slums were thus formed.

I wouldn't say this qualified for Velaris, internally, but as for the Nightcourt as a whole, the separation of the CoN and Illyria from the golden city that is Velaris is very telling

The citizens of the CoN aren't allowed to leave the city and as we have seen from Rhysand, they will have businesses turn CoN citizens away in Velaris

Illyria is full of war torn camps where inequality thrives and there is not adequate housing or supplies, as we see when Cassian said he fought other children for supplies. We also see it when Cassian brings blankets for the Illyrians

Poor infrastructure, social exclusion and economic stagnation

Social exclusion and poor infrastructure forces the poor to adapt to conditions beyond his or her control. Poor families that cannot afford transportation, or those who simply lack any form of affordable public transportation, generally end up in squat settlements within walking distance or close enough to the place of their formal or informal employment.

This overall I feel best exemplifies Velaris. As far as we're made aware there aren't vehicles in Velaris and we don't make notice of any other forms of transportation besides winnowing. The closest we get is flying and we've only seen Cassian, Azriel, Rhysand and Feyre. With Winnowing, it's only Mor and Rhysand and Feyre.

Winnowing is not a common practice ability that all faeries have. There does seem to be a suggestion that there are people who can Winnow, though this is based on Rhysand telling Feyre about his dad being unable to Winnow into the HoW

This leaves many people being unable to have any form of transportation outside of walking.

Informal economy

Many slums grow because of growing informal economy which creates demand for workers. Informal economy is that part of an economy that is neither registered as a business nor licensed, one that does not pay taxes and is not monitored by local, state, or federal government.

There are very few businesses we see in Velaris. We see Rita's, the dive bar and some art studios. There isn't enough shown about legitimate businesses to really show much about an informal economy

Poverty

Urban poverty encourages the formation and demand for slums. With rapid shift from rural to urban life, poverty migrates to urban areas. The urban poor arrives with hope, and very little of anything else. They typically have no access to shelter, basic urban services and social amenities. Slums are often the only option for the urban poor.

Poverty has been witnessed with especially the Illyrians. But within Velaris, it stands to reason that the "grimy part of the city" where Nesta lives, and the bar she frequents, does not have the adequate infrastructure in place for proper wages- which would be Rhysands responsibility to make sure a minimums wage where people could thrive would exist

tldr: Velaris has slums and it's through Rhys' shitty job as a high lord by not creating adequate social systems or infrastructure where poor folks can live without being designated to the "grimy parts of the city"

Someone sent me this:

So here we go

The Crown Heir oversaw a major program of urban development and beautification that transformed the city from one of simple materials to one of grand marble. This transformation involved a number of ambitious public works projects that aimed to create a more grand and majestic Welkesh.

It had become a pet project of pure egotistical drive.

One of the first major projects undertaken by the Crown Heir was the rebuilding of the city's main sewer system. This project helped to improve sanitation in the city and reduce the spread of disease that has spread since the V'era started attacking Nareth years ago.

Another key project was the construction of a new civic center, or public square, that would serve as the centerpiece of the city. The Welkeshian Grand Plaza was built to rival the existing marketplace in Argent, and included new monuments, museums, and public spaces. The centerpiece of the new plaza was a massive statue dedicated to the Crown Heir's mother, Queen Adelina.

In addition to these projects, the Crown Heir also commissioned a number of new public buildings and monuments, many of which were constructed out of marble. The Great Hall of Uriel, the Tower of the Remiel, and the Welkesh Memorial were just a few of the new structures that were built during this impressive series of public works.

To finance these projects, the Crown Heir levied new taxes and used their own personal wealth to fund the construction. They also encouraged wealthy patrons to donate money to the city's beautification efforts, often in exchange for recognition and prestige. (Some whisper of threats, but this is just drivel from the furries)

Overall, the Crown Heir's urban development program helped to create a more magnificent and impressive Welkesh, one that was then known for its grandeur and beauty. Their use of marble in particular was a key element of this transformation, as the white stone was associated with wealth, power, and imperial grandeur.

SO. About W5...

I ended up "legally acquiring" a digital copy of the core book and just finished my first read through of it. Some thoughts.

First of all, let me say my major gripes about it re: indigenous and disability erasure remain present, and do end up being a deal breaker for me regarding Paradox and giving them any money.

Still, there's some interesting stuff in here. I am personally a V5 enjoyer. I dislike 'gothic superhero' type chronicles, cumbersome lore and mechanical bloat. I do like Personal horror, power that comes with serious costs, character-focused storytelling, urban fantasy that feels contemporary and grounded, and brave, direct political themes. so V5 ended up being a general improvement for me over V20, give or take some small things. These are the biasas I'm carrying into my thoughts on W5.

The good: Rage Dice make a return from V5's hunger dice, and with improvements! Hunger dice were controversial in V5, but personally I found them to be a fantastic way to keep the Beast as a present threat in your chronicle. Finally, a reason for being a vampire to actually feel like a curse! And Rage dice in W5 I like even more. I enjoy how they turn failure into success when you're trying to accomplish something violent, but otherwise can cause critical problems with your approach when you're *not* trying to be violent. It really encourages you to get into character and play your character more impatient and aggressive when your rage is higher. Finally, Rage that actually feels like a double-edged sword! The things Rage does is also an improvement for me. I dislike extra actions in TTRPGs, ironically I find that they just slow things down with too much dice rolling. Making Rage something you spend to regenerate faster is a much better idea.

The forms are more distinct and interesting now as well. This is one of the things W5 takes from Forsaken than it very good. Finally, a reason to use Hispo and Glabro! Crinos feels extra powerful, *and* risky, with its rule that it will enter a frenzy if you don't kill something that round making it much more threatening and dangerous, which is precisely how it's always been described in the lore, but never really represented in the game very well until now. Claws are high damage but only deal mundane types of damage and Bite is lower damage but Agg. Also good from a design standpoint, makes the rule about not eating human flesh finally matter.

Harano and Hauglosk. Harano finally becomes a present threat for Garou. Something they need to fight against, and help their pack against. It seems to operate a bit like a humanity stat, only that your sweet spot is in the middle. Too far in the other direction, and your character starts to flirt with fanaticism. This is just fantastic for making Werewolf have an actual morality system, a balance in their faith/convictions based on actions taken in the chronicle. Much more interesting than Gnosis as being an essentially meaningless resource. I have seen some braindead takes about this being a way for STs to punish players?? Don't play with STs who try to punish you and force you to do what they would do. Simple as.

The bad: new takes on the tribes. Generally I like how the book explains lore concepts, but the new tribes are so sanitized with any possible ounce of controversy taken out of them, that the political themes most of them were built to explore are totally absent, or significantly muted. In a vaccum I would think making the Get of Fenris fall would be a very interesting way to drive forward the plot, but the execution here makes them feel a little cartoonist. Very roundabout in saying that they've become werewolf eco-facists, a better way to do this be making a Hauglosk-ed version of each tribe to represent the corruption of each tribe's ideology. The cult of Fenris work as a general condemnation of the worst side of Garou in general, but having the bad guys camps in W20 just worked better for this, and had lots of room for improvement. As with all the other tribes, the Get of Fenris feels flattened and removed from its cultural context.

The Ugly: Paradox being horrible and racist. If you haven't read about this already, then... Idk how you found this post really. But this post covers it more thoroughly than I could.

The book attempts to address this with a note I put in the bottom, listing some facts about the issues experienced by indigenous groups, while making a half hearted attempt to connect it to the Garou. In the face of this erasure from their actual game though, it feels like a platitude.

As for the removal of crinos-born Garou, it's another flattening of a complicated part of the game's politics. It might have been nice to see Garou culture advance a bit, but removing them entirely removes the representation they embodied. Most of the direct representation in this game has been removed, but I think the the indigenous and disability represent the most egregious loss, especially in a game about those who are most actively being sacrificed in the name of capitalism. Which isn't some fandom interpretation, it is literally stated in the book.

This all leaves me very sour on the game's fiction, which for a storytelling game like Werewolf the Apocalypse, is important. Which is a shame, because I see a lot of good steps forward in the mechanics, making a game that's more fiction-first, without all the terrible attempts at capturing D&D's wargame combat. But frankly, it's hard to want a game who's treated it's writers so poorly to do well, even if I do think the current writers did very well with the constraints they were given. It's hard to recommend that anyone pay money for this.

Transforming Spaces: Discover the Best Cleaning Franchise in New Zealand

In recent years, the professional cleaning industry has seen substantial growth in New Zealand, particularly in Tauranga. This increase is due to the growing awareness among businesses and homeowners about the benefits of a pristine and hygienic environment.

Homeowners are similarly eager for reliable and efficient cleaning services to maintain the ambiance and sanitation of their living spaces. These factors are driving the success of professional cleaners, making a cleaning franchise in NZ a lucrative choice for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Why Choose a Cleaning Franchise in NZ?

A cleaning franchise offers a unique opportunity to capitalize on an established business model. Instead of starting from scratch, investing in a cleaning franchise NZ provides the advantage of using proven methods, established branding, and efficient cleaning protocols. This setup means franchisees don’t have to worry about building credibility and trust from the ground up, as the franchise already comes with a reputation for quality and reliability. Additionally, the demand for cleaning services remains strong, with clients ranging from large corporate offices to private homes. This diversity in clientele ensures steady work, which means consistent revenue for franchise owners.

Moreover, franchising offers extensive support, from marketing and training to customer service, which is especially beneficial for individuals who may not have prior experience in the cleaning industry. Many franchises also provide guidance on operational logistics and regulatory compliance, reducing the stress for new business owners. This support structure is invaluable in helping franchisees focus on growing their customer base and improving service quality without being bogged down by administrative tasks. In Tauranga, where cleanliness standards are high, franchisees can deliver tailored services that align with the local demand.

Exploring Cleaning Opportunities in Tauranga

Tauranga, a coastal city known for its vibrant lifestyle and flourishing economy, is an ideal place for a cleaning business. The city’s diverse range of industries—tourism, agriculture, and retail, to name a few—creates consistent demand for cleaning services. Cleaning Tauranga requires attention to the specific needs of the local clientele, including holiday homes, commercial spaces, and busy urban households. This variety makes Tauranga an attractive location for aspiring franchise owners who wish to take advantage of the area’s dynamic market.

Additionally, the steady influx of tourists and residents means there is a constant requirement for clean, welcoming spaces.

The potential for growth in such a bustling city is immense, making it a wise investment for cleaning franchises looking to expand or establish their presence in New Zealand.

The Advantages of Professional Cleaning for Businesses and Homes

In both commercial and residential settings, professional cleaning is a valuable investment. Businesses that prioritize cleanliness often experience improved employee satisfaction, as a clean environment fosters productivity and reduces absenteeism due to illness. Professional cleaning also plays a role in shaping the brand image of a business; a well-maintained office speaks to the company’s commitment to quality and care. For homeowners, having a professional cleaning team ensures that the property remains hygienic and visually appealing, contributing to a healthier and more enjoyable living space. The demand for professional cleaning services is thus expected to grow, creating ample opportunities for a cleaning franchise in NZ to establish long-lasting relationships with customers.

With advanced cleaning equipment, environmentally friendly products, and experienced staff, professional cleaners are often able to deliver a level of service that surpasses traditional cleaning methods. Franchise owners can leverage these advantages to attract customers who value both efficiency and quality. As clients experience the benefits of a meticulously cleaned space, they are more likely to become repeat customers, providing a reliable revenue stream for the franchise.

Setting Up for Success: How to Thrive in the Cleaning Industry

For those looking to start a cleaning franchise in NZ, understanding the keys to success is crucial. Building a reputation for reliability, quality, and customer satisfaction is essential. One way to achieve this is by investing in thorough staff training. Cleaners who are skilled in the latest techniques and dedicated to customer service help build a positive image, encouraging customers to choose the franchise for their ongoing needs.

Networking and community engagement are also beneficial for new franchisees, especially in a close-knit community like Tauranga. Local businesses often prefer to work with service providers they know and trust. Franchise owners who participate in community events and establish a presence in local directories and online platforms will find it easier to grow their customer base. Additionally, leveraging digital marketing to showcase client testimonials, before-and-after images, and service details can help attract clients and boost visibility in the competitive market of cleaning Tauranga.

A Promising Future Awaits in the Cleaning Industry

The professional cleaning industry in New Zealand shows no signs of slowing down. With cities like Tauranga expanding and new businesses opening, the need for reliable and high-quality cleaning services continues to grow.

Opportunity - Growing Adoption of Advanced Technologies

Asia Pacific, where approximately 80% of wastewater is discharged untreated, faces significant environmental and public health challenges.

Bosnia Culture Project 2024

The government of Bosnia has decided to modernize its culture. They have gathered all their historical material, books and records and such, and put them in a large iron tank. The plan is to sink this material into the ocean, to sanitize their recorded culture to align with modern ethics. The tank is designed so that it is easy to add material, but difficult to remove it. The large cube container is only accessible by a long narrow tube that extends about 10 feet above the top. The tank is filled with material, and then floated out onto the ocean by two workers. One worker with droopy disinterested eyes is piloting the tank toward deep waters. The other, with bulging eyes and a panicked face, is trying to use a long pole to fish material out of the tank. This event is being recorded by a drone hovering above the tank. As the tank begins to sink, the panicked man fishes out one postcard. It is damp and damaged already. He holds it out to the recording drone. He says "they cant do this to us. This is our soul. This is our origins."

The post card shows a cartoon of a busy urban sidewalk. The wide sidewalk is beside a busy road, on the right, with cars driving by. Some pedestrians walk by, close to the storefronts on the left. Between the walking pedestrians and the road are several people bowing prostrate over bags of money. The worshippers face a setting sun, away from the stores, and it can be seen that the pedestrians avoid watching.

Prioritize the voices of youth in shaping sustainable urban landscapes.

“Youth climate changemakers: Catalysing local action for urban sustainability.” World Cities Day 2024. It has been estimated that 60% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2030 and that as many as 60% of urban dwellers will be under the age of 18. Despite progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals, urban areas continue to grapple with poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation, necessitating urgent and transformative actions. In the Global South, these challenges are often more pronounced due to rapid urbanization, limited infrastructure, and insufficient resources. Cities in these regions frequently face severe housing shortages, inadequate access to clean water and sanitation, and higher vulnerability to climate-related disasters. Youth in these areas are particularly affected, experiencing high levels of unemployment and limited educational opportunities. Therefore, addressing the unique needs and leveraging the potential of young people in the Global South is crucial for achieving sustainable urban development and mitigating the impacts of climate change. Engaging youth meaningfully in urban decision-making processes is essential for fostering inclusive and resilient cities. By empowering and enabling young people to participate actively, cities can tap into their creativity, innovation, and commitment to drive sustainable development. Moreover, involving youth in policymaking ensures that urban strategies reflect their aspirations and concerns, leading to more effective and equitable future. Through the Pact for the Future and the Declaration on Future Generations, the imperative is to establish frameworks that prioritize the voices of youth and future generations, ensuring their active participation in shaping sustainable urban landscapes. The Pact for the Future aims to strengthen the multilateral system to address current and future challenges, explicitly recognizing the crucial role of youth and future generations. This commitment is reflected in the Declaration on Future Generations, which seeks to safeguard the rights and interests of those yet to be born by promoting long-term, responsible decision-making. As we prepare for the Summit of the Future, these frameworks will be critical in shaping the discussions and outcomes. The Summit of the Future is an opportunity to integrate youth perspectives into global policy, ensuring that the multilateral system is responsive to the needs and aspirations of the younger generation. By adopting these frameworks at the Summit, we commit to creating pathways for young people to influence urban policies and strategies actively. This includes establishing youth councils, integrating youth representatives into local government bodies, and ensuring continuous dialogue between young people and policymakers. These actions will help build cities that are not only sustainable and resilient but also reflective of the diverse voices and needs of all their inhabitants, present and future. This year’s celebration is a call to action for youth and local governments to work hand-in-hand to address the climate crisis. With climate change intensifying urban challenges, particularly in rapidly growing cities, this year’s observance will emphasize the power of youth to lead in urban adaptation and climate resilience. By taking the lead, today’s youth can shape their cities to be inclusive, equitable, and environmentally sustainable for generations to come.

Research presents innovative paths for solid waste management in Brazil

New study by FGV EAESP researchers Michel Xocaira Paes and Jose A. Puppim de Oliveira points out four factors that help reduce expenses and greenhouse gas emissions while generating carbon credits

Brazilian cities have had success in promoting innovation in solid waste management, promoting the circular economy and tackling climate change. According to a study published in December 2023 in Habitat International, this success is attributed to four practices: 1) a political and technical structure to facilitate innovation processes; 2) collaboration with state and federal governments; 3) the implementation of educational projects on environmental sustainability and public participation; and 4) the creation of public policies for waste management, focused on local potential.

The results are significant, considering that there are many challenges to innovating in urban solid waste management, including institutional and regulatory barriers, especially in developing countries, where low technical capacity, a lack of environmental awareness and limited government participation are common obstacles.

However, few studies have demonstrated the pathways and key elements needed to rectify this situation. To identify the factors that drive innovation in urban solid waste management, FGV EAESP researchers Michel Xocaira Paes and Jose A. Puppim de Oliveira, in partnership with Sandro Donnini Mancini at Sao Paulo State University and Joan Rieradevall at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, carried out a study in four Brazilian municipalities.

The municipalities of Harmonia (Rio Grande do Sul), Ibertioga (Minas Gerais), Sao Paulo and Carauari (Amazonas) were selected because of their good practices in municipal solid waste management and because they represent different profiles in terms of socioeconomic indicators, the number of inhabitants and geographical distribution across Brazil. The researchers looked for municipalities in which solid waste management practices are practiced that the existing literature in the area points to as being capable of generating positive results in terms of the effects of climate change and the circular economy. Once these four locations had been selected, the researchers conducted technical visits and had interviews with political and civil actors there. The information obtained was checked against data from the national statistics agency (IBGE) and the National Basic Sanitation Information System (SNIS).

Exploring the Market for Wholesale Jet Sprays in India

India’s sanitation and hygiene sector has seen significant growth over recent years, with the demand for bathroom fixtures and accessories increasing due to the expansion of the real estate and construction sectors. One notable product gaining popularity is the jet spray, also known as the bidet shower or health faucet. Jet sprays are commonly used in Indian households, and they play a vital role in ensuring personal hygiene. Here, we explore the Wholesale Jet Spray in India, examining factors like demand, key players, trends, and future opportunities.

Understanding the Role of Jet Sprays in India

Jet sprays are a standard bathroom accessory in India, preferred by many for their convenience and efficacy. They are hand-operated devices, typically attached to the toilet, designed to spray water at high pressure for cleaning purposes. As awareness of personal hygiene has grown, so has the acceptance and demand for jet sprays across various segments, from urban homes to commercial establishments like hotels and hospitals.

The increase in demand for these products has led to a thriving wholesale market. Jet sprays are available in different materials like stainless steel, brass, and ABS plastic, catering to various price points and durability requirements. This variety allows wholesalers to address the needs of a diverse consumer base, from budget-conscious buyers to those seeking premium fixtures.

Key Players in the Wholesale Market

Several domestic and international brands are actively involved in the production and distribution of jet sprays in India. Some prominent brands include Hindware, Cera, Parryware, and Kohler, as well as lesser-known but affordable local brands. These companies often sell jet sprays through a network of distributors and wholesalers, enabling them to reach even remote parts of the country. The presence of local manufacturers further drives competition, allowing wholesalers to source a range of products at competitive prices.

The wholesale market often works through a regional network, with wholesalers based in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore supplying products to retailers and businesses across India. Moreover, the rise of e-commerce has also provided wholesalers with a new distribution channel, allowing them to sell in bulk directly to small business owners and contractors.

Demand Drivers and Trends in the Market

Several factors drive the demand for jet sprays in India. Increasing urbanization and improved living standards have led to a higher demand for modern bathroom fixtures. Government initiatives like the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Mission) have also heightened awareness about sanitation, further contributing to the demand for hygiene products, including jet sprays.

Another emerging trend is the preference for eco-friendly and water-saving jet sprays, especially in urban areas where water conservation is a concern. Many manufacturers now design products that limit water usage while maintaining sufficient pressure, an innovation that appeals to environmentally conscious consumers and businesses alike. With growing awareness, products with certifications for quality and safety standards are also gaining traction in the market.

Future Prospects and Challenges

The future of the jet spray market in India looks promising, with growth expected as more residential and commercial spaces adopt these fixtures. However, the market also faces challenges. Price sensitivity remains a key factor, as many consumers prefer low-cost options. Additionally, the influx of imported products, particularly from countries like China, has intensified competition. While these imports may sometimes offer lower prices, they may not always meet the quality and durability standards set by established Indian brands, presenting both a challenge and an opportunity for local manufacturers and wholesalers.

 

The Wholesale Jet Spray Supplier in India is robust and growing, driven by increased awareness about hygiene, rising urbanization, and government initiatives supporting sanitation. With a broad range of products catering to different consumer preferences, the market is poised to expand further. Wholesalers who can offer quality products at competitive prices, while keeping pace with emerging trends like eco-friendly and water-saving options, will find ample opportunities in this evolving market. As hygiene remains a priority, jet sprays are set to remain a staple fixture in Indian bathrooms, making the wholesale market for these products a lucrative sector for the foreseeable future.
