White people will look you dead in the eyes and tell you that Palestinian children deserve to starve and then go drop a band on 3 different types of raw chicken feet and salmon fins to feed Bark Ruffalo, their goldendoodle with an uncannily human expression
someone has to have made a gentrification sign tier list, this is an S rank for sure
Expensive pet stores, an abundance of yoga studios, boutiques, and salons, a flurry of ill-fated overpriced concept bars, Mexican restaurants run by white people that charge $7 for a taco, a brewpub with the most mid IPA you’ve ever tasted, fad restaurants in general (acai bowls or whatever the fuck), almost completely unused rooftop patios, a health food trend grocery store that charges 4X the price for basic goods (it replaced a local, much cheaper supermarket), the neighborhood suddenly gets nice sidewalks and transit (for the white people of course)
Bagel shops, fancy donut shops, fancy ice cream parlors, drinking chocolate shops, French-style bakery-cafes, cold-pressed juice shops, mediterranean cooking supply shop where everything comes in a <500mL container and mostly looks like it’s there for the aesthetique
Hahahaha there are always an increasing number of way overpriced ice cream shops. It begins with 1 but they don’t stop there! The rest are on-point too.
lmfao gottem
The Mexican place has to also gentrify elotes and call it “Mexican street corn” and charge $12 per ear (yes the ends are cut off)
We need to get hexbear’s best minds on this asap tbh
