San Francisco city officials recently unveiled a new, self-cleaning toilet designed to reflect San Francisco values. The city's Department of Public Works stated via press release that the "next-generation restrooms are environmentally sustainable, brighter and easier to keep clean."
Unfortunately, like many of the city's residents, the magical toilet quit working within a few days of its debut.

It broke down three days later.
I was under the impression that San Francisco itself was "the future of public toilets," based on the staggering amount of human excrement on several of the city's streets and walkways.
Sustainable defecation seems a perfect metaphor for what's happening in — and to — America today...courtesy of the Democrat-Socialist Party. Although, on second thought, it isn't sustainable in the long run.

The goal of the project wasn't to provide better access to public restrooms, it was intended to showcase some designer's idea for a building shape. In that it succeeded.

Like with all Frisco projects advertised to benefit street bums, >90% of $$ went to friends of political trash.
A perfect metaphor for the city itself.
Vladimir Voinovich in his novel “Moscow 2042” satirized that true communism would be achieved when primary matter (food) equaled secondary matter (feces). San Francisco may be the first to achieve this level of communism.
—”The whole design looks like it came from some architecture school senior project. Why bother with complex curved surfaces that drive up the cost?”
Outside of England and the architectural community, not many would refer to this structure as a “WC”, as noted on the exterior.

As a cab driver I appreciate the public terlets on occasion. During the lockdown they were PRICELESS.
But the problem in Sf is not lack of public toilets. The problem is junkies and crazies who have no particular interest in using one. They are out of it and they don’t care and they go wherever.
