My buddy is a brilliant structural engineer that could be building incredible infrastructure in a cool country. He is in the midwest so he builds plasma centers instead.

Well..at least it's not prison architecture.

There is one kind of prison where the man is behind bars, and everything that he desires is outside; and there is another kind where the things are behind the bars, and the man is outside.

Yup. Blood plasma

There's a place here with a big sign saying "Turning plasma into hope", and I wish it was CERN's slogan.

makes sense, i've been starting to see guerilla advertising for selling blood plasma on tiktok

I considered doing an engineering degree but decided against it because I didn't want to build car infrastructure and shit like this for a dying empire.
