  1. Bro literally 20 years earlier the ruling class was decrying swimming as the devil’s tools and only permissible if done to the glory of god; public pools literally did not exist 30 years earlier, what are you talking about

  3. Early 1900s public pool designers: Ugh, why are all of our public pools overrun by hyperactive young men who refuse to control their expressions of toxic masculinity

    Also early 1900s public pool designers: What do you mean, “do you not see what that looks like”

  5. Part of the reason we have modern public swimming pools is the same toxic masculinity that shows up every 30 years right around when society asks cis straight men to understand other people

  11. While it’s harder to enforce class differences in a pool, the pools themselves can enforce them effectively. The layout of the recreational space is meant to let certain people know they don’t belong

  13. This is such an interesting perspective, that one reason there’s often so much class consciousness *around* pools is that there’s little to none actually *in* them. It’s much harder to dress up your station while in a public pool

  15. This is 1885! Some of the very first public pools in the US were completely integrated from the start with absolutely no issue. They were still baths for poor people but this is amazing, given what a wedge they become #books #pools

  17. It is *such* a Protestant American move to create our first “charity” public baths explicitly for low earners to clean up with dignity and then charge so much that it prices out poor people

  19. It’s always interesting to see these spaces where the movement could just stop at “people deserve to have the facilities they need to care for themselves” but be unable to keep from continuing to “because it will make them more morally good”

  21. Wild to think that technically, we’re pretty close to it being possible for someone from the days of the first public pools in the US to still be alive. They’re so much younger than you would expect!

  25. RE: flipboard.com/@sz_de/wissen-l6

    Das auch. Ich muss gestehen: da ich eigentlich schrecklich gerne schwimme bzw. schwamm, hätte ich mir früher fast mal einen Pool zugelegt. Ist dann durch Zeit- und Handwerker-Mangel doch nicht materialisiert. Aus heutiger Sicht: nicht zu verantworten. #Trinkwasser #Klimakrise #Pools #Nachhaltigkeit

  26. Unsere #Wasserkriese in der #Grafschaft Bentheim durch die #Klimakrise ist seit #März bekannt.

    Ist halt kein #Grundwasser entstanden durch die #Dürre im #Winter

    Somit gibt es zu wenig #Trinkwasser

    Anstatt vorbeugend zu handeln wird nur reagiert wenn es zu spät ist bzw eingeschränkt werden muss.

    Die #Pools sind schon voll.
