Ah yes, traditional urban cores, historically entirely without any good food options, either delivered, on the go, or even sit-down at odd hours

me in ancient times desperately trying to attach my Gyro Bell order to a dove at 3am
"Stop squirming or I'll just eat you instead, you little bastard!"
I’d imagine DoorDash delivery is a hell of a lot of faster here than the burbs.
Having ordered food in plenty of places that look like this... yeah, it is.
Half the time the guy is riding a bycicle, too. Still faster.
What do you mean, "still?" Even Top Gear acknowledged that bicycles are the fastest way to get around cities!

Urban cores are full of liberals and at night the pasty progressives sometimes even venture out of their mom’s boyfriend’s basements.

I have pretty severe ADHD and I fucking hate food delivery service apps. What is this post even trying to say?
They're saying their mental illness is to blame for their addiction to having fast food delivered and if you don't think they are entitled to these services you are a bigot.
Stupid people say stupid things
... they deliver food in old city centres like this al the same, they just use bikes or mopeds.
Also non-car food delivery is better, especially during rush hours.
I actually had no idea that car food delivery was a thing
Ofc it is (I rarely see it in European cities tho), but Murikans just use their private cars (so SUVs & pickups deliver you fries).
The vehicles are also cheaper in every thinkable way.
I have ADHD and never once used and doordash or Uber stuff...I may be all over the place but I'm not an idiot who would willing pay 25-50% extra for nothing .
Pretty sure I’m not ADHD, but I completely agree on that 25-50% thing. It’s ridiculous. I’ve never had a craving that was bad enough to justify throwing money away.
Come to think of it, if I ever do have a craving that bad, I wouldn’t trust my food to DoorDash. I’ll pick it up myself and make sure my order is still warm when it gets to my house.
Never used a delivery app in my life. This person is just using ADHD as an umbrella term for "impulsive decisions", which is an inherently shitty thing to do.

What the heck is this convoluted, but incoherent post? OP must have ADHD jumping between these topics and thinking they're related
What the fuck does ADHD have to do with Doordash?
Literally nothing.
Shitty people will associate ANY impulsive decision with ADHD because they get all their mental health information from short-form content.
Actually, the issue here is executive dysfunction.

Regardless, going for a walk to the restaurant for lunch is a mentally healthy activity for all neurotypes.

With ADHD, you can suddenly be depleted of energy, not have the motivation to cook, or simply forget to eat. When you get hungry you can go ," Ah whatever I'll order delivery"
NOW. It may be more prominent in ADHD folk, as myself, but it is not just an ADHD folk issue. This person is just making ADHD their entire personality, and pointing fingers at things they don't like.
Also, I'm almost positive that Madrid( is this Madrid?)has food delivery services.
food delivery services are better in car-light places, because cars (as we all know) fundamentally fucking suck shit.

ADHD-adjacent food services
LOL
Yeah really like wtf
Carbrains cant imagine how a system that yeets you across the city at 70kmph underground could exist.
Most of the delivery services here in the UK even in places with big roads use bicycles, mopeds, or at most a small hatchback car. They can easily fit through that city.
Well yes but see i don't live there and i need to keep driving my ford F50000 fleshreaper, BLOOD FOR THE CAR GOD

Is there an association between adhd and food delivery?
My moomer trait is I just don’t get food delivery.
I don't see how anyone can look at those prices and not immediately cancel the transaction. Also the idea of some rando handling my food unsupervised is not appealing.
Don't... Please don't say it like that. We already had the stupidest sounding generation name.
I guess the devil shits on the biggest pile.
I feel like that's a millennial trait too, simply because we're all too broke to afford the markup.
My euro brain cannot comprehend that Americans are discussing about it like it’s something weird or exotic let alone anything special.
Love you all and would love to have a huge ass truck and a shotgun and live the Pißwasser advertisement lifestyle, but it’s really just a square. Sometimes they do markets there from like 6am-9am on a Saturday though which is nice if you hate sleeping. Also there’s probably a McDonald’s. Now you know all our town square secrets
Where do I park my truck? I dont see a single parking lot in this pic and im sure as hell not walking

Idk I see a lot of ubereats on bicycles already
"my car brain cannot fathom how such places can exist, where is the parking, why aren't there more lanes???"
You're lazy and can't accept that you have no self control. Stop blaming mental illness. Yes people have it. No it isnt the reason you are worthless sack of shit. That's all you.

Do American towns not have town squares? My (European) town has 3, that I know of.
Most modern US towns were basically founded about or after the time cars were invented. Or at least have experienced the vast amount of it's growth since the car was invented. So stores and shops, courthouses, post offices, etc have just been built all over the place.

I would prefer to see a native forest or at least some trees for shade. I could even do with a fountain. I mean, I guess this would be good as a market place but if it's empty what's the point?
I mean... you put things... in it?
Admittedly on big cities these can be a bit of a tourist trap, but they're nice for events and so on.
They're also often in front of official buildings or big monuments, so they often were just... the place where stuff happened. You know, back when giving the news involved shouting them at a group of people.

American malls were inspired by the town square, if I remember correctly
Kinda the way lots of shitty movies were “inspired” by excellent books.
