Mcmansion Hell has a new post about 1970's timecapsul of a mcmansion that's pretty great. But more importantly in it she links to a Collector's Weekly article about mid-century style, specifically the colonial revival inspired by westerns and the bicentennial that dominated tastes in that period far more than MCM.



If you want to understand why this room exists, and why it reminds you of your grandmother, read it.

My grandmother did actually have a wagon wheel chandelier just like that for my whole childhood

Anyone interested in an old mill? Aside from the ~$12k taxes, you're probably responsible for the mill pond dam. Nice place, though.

You found Kirk Johnson's liquor stash?

E:

Holy gently caress, I just was looking up stuff about the goat man himself and came across this article:

:nws: :nws: :nws:
https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/goatse-revealed-kirk-johnson/

Which mentioned that:

quote:

When I began looking into Goatse’s identity, I depended on the longtime rumors that the men’s similar frame and matching moles all pointed toward Johnson. I couldn’t be sure, though, so I consulted an expert: A man who calls himself Grey. He’s the proprietor of the Big Sex Toy Store, an online erotic novelty shop specializing in extreme penetration gear, where the bestseller is an eight-inch PVC slip-on penis-extender. Grey is very familiar with both Goatse and Johnson, and he approaches them both with the practiced eye of the connoisseur.

Which lists that very item (christmas tree/buttplug) for sale on its website.

If you were fancy you didn't just have a telephone niche, you had a telephone booth. Per the ad this one still works!

Dislike - here in the bay area especially near my neighborhood there are a lot of super-modern houses that completely look different from the other houses in the block. I'm of the opinion that a neighborhood should have some cohesion, but you can do anything you want inside.

I'm the complete opposite, but I live in New England where we're packed with identical-looking colonials. Love modern boxes, they look refreshing.

Looks like a safe sex advert. That yellow thing’s a condom.

Is it “don’t gently caress yourself dead” or “don’t gently caress yourself to death”? Or is that functionally the same in Finnish

i don't have any particular argument for or against the attitude expressed in this post, but it made me consider for a solid five minutes the idea of an entire subdivision of 1970/1980 split levels under a historic preservation ordinance and people having to like source artisinal vinyl siding for the reaganpunk aesthetic all the rage in 2045

Thank goodness they have FOUR phone ports for a space that contains one phone, and it's not even plugged in.

Looks like USB-A ports to me. If so, seems like a dumb spot. If the box under the phone is a charging area, just put it in there.

The box under the phone is a cubby for the phonebook. The USB-A ports are probably where the old phone jack used to be rather than a totally new addition to the space.
