    This is a heaven description, which we actually could have (maybe except meeting Marx in person)

    Low-key thought it was going to be a nazi/third Reich joke/greentext when I read about the German accent, but then realized where I was and that I am not longer bound by reddit

    • You get home
    • The train enters into a terminal on the ground floor of a 80-story tower
    • It is surrounded by a botanical garden and an algae farm
    • The outside of the complex looks like an overgrown forest
    • You see it through a glass wall but you can’t go there yet
    • It has been declared a protected zone to regrow it
    • You go back to the temperate area of the botanical garden
    • There’s a little kiosk that looks like a mushroom
    • You reach for your wallet to buy a milkshake but you can’t find it
    • Cringing at this vulgar gesture of yours, the distributor inside the kiosk decides to drink it himself
    • Fat L taken
    • You wander back to the tower
    • On the outside, it is a massive socialist-realism style building
    • But on the inside, every floor has its unique style of interior design
    • Some are clearly made by amateurs who live on the floor
    • Most are commissions by locally renowned artists
    • You take the lift to the 80th floor to get a good view, but even the top of the tower is so massive you get lost
    • Usually people party on the roof but tomorrow there the entrance exams for the tower’s university
    • But that way you can climb the spire in peace
    • By the time you made it up, the sun has set
    • You look down on the intricately nested terraces and balconies, the ornaments and statues, the many, many flags
    • The garden and the farm are illuminated in a soft green light, surrounded by a wide belt of absolute black
    • There are a also a few dim lights in the distance
    • Not everyone is a tower person
    • You go back inside and struggle to find apartment 52.M708
    • It consists of a bath, a toilet, a study, a bedroom, and a small dining space
    • Cooking and most forms of entertainment are meant to be done together in the common area or on the ground floor
    • Mail, laundry, and garbage are automatically sent to their destination through a series of vents
    • You want to fall asleep to the TV and zap through to find a random celebrity talkshow
    • Alas everything is about science, art, technology, nature, or philosophy
    • You lie awake until 4am, having existential crises about the vastness of space
    • But at least you’re not alone
