There are dozens of miles of tunnels beneath las vegas referred to as the "homeless tunnels."

Literally an undercity of people enslaved and tortured and preyed upon by the lovecraftian horror that is capital, all so this thing can exist looming above the city like a monument to some eldritch god, a spherical obolisk that almost defies perception.

      It makes it sound more P R E S T I G E to call it something that it is not. Techbro brain is like that.

      EDIT: I was mistaken; I thought the obelisk description was from bazinga promotional material. Critical support for using it to fancifully describe techbro Nyarlathotep.

        I'm not going to go all nerd on you all now but I could definitely stretch the definition of obolisk to fit this monstrosity.

        I was simply trying to use flowery language and not be redundant.

          I assumed that the obelisk part was from the techbros or their promoters. If it was just something you made up for the thread, that's fine, really. edgeworth-shrug
