Finally furnishing a flat exactly like I need it, everyone wants to know where the lounge is
There is no lounge I say as I'm screwing more tool storage boards to the wall
I'm finally home

An ideal flat is so wonderfully contradictory: anything but, rather full of space to be filled and to play with.

@canzonett everyone had such different needs, I think it's one of the greatest cruelties of society to reserve that fulfillment for only some, and tell the rest to put up with a standard that doesn't fit

@vivschwarz I mean, just having several rooms at your disposal is already a luxurious situation. But so many people who have that space use it merely for symbolic or representative purposes, basically for storing aspects of their own meaning and self-importance inside them, instead of putting them to actual use.

@canzonett yeah, no need for status display here, which is lucky... Every so often I remember the "your bed should only touch the wall with the headboard if you're an adult" thing and it just amazes me
