Shauns tweet was true.
Also I felt it was "you aren't going to have a 4 bedroom house in the burbs with a huge yard and a pool."
Of course I want MORE but I also accept that at a certain point, my more means less for someone else. It's also not good long term to grow suburbs forever. I don't know if degrowth is part of urbanization and trying to live denser, but I like the idea of us going denser, less need for cars, shorter pipes, less roads, less distance.
I agree with you though I made a post months ago here how a bedroom for each person in a family might not practical in the future (and today, parents shouldn't be shamed for not being able to provide it) and got roasted.
there's no reason to shame people for not being able to provide things that the government should be providing but people need to have private, lockable spaces. like a room doesn't need to be a mcmansion style Master Bedroom, but like people need private spaces that they can control access to, especially neurodivergent people (as an autistic person i would have committed parody and satire on myself in minecraft if i had to share a room post puberty, i almost did before puberty even because of my disgustingly unhygienic, constantly nose-picking brother) or people with significant and fundamental disagreements with family members - imagine someone in an abusive home without even the ability to be alone in their room with a locked door. I know people in abusive families and some of the first things their family did to them was take off the locks on their room. it is absolutely an invasion of reasonable privacy. the fact that poorer people can't provide it always isn't a knock against them but on society and wealth inequality - i don't judge poor people for not being able to provide clean water but it is still a vital and necessary resource.
edit: either give people their own rooms or give us enough wilderness to fuck off to when we need to masturbate like in the oh so glorious olden days
Just the locks? Lmao my family took the whole door off. :oh-shit:
average size of a bedroom is like 70-130 sq ft. lets abolish 1000s of sq ft yards before we come for someone's sleeping arrangements
I'd rather have a big yard then my own room cause if you have kids, they can play and exercise in the yard, and you can also have lots of guests/BBQs/party's in the back yard
just a matter of personal preference tho, others may feel different
Why does the yard have to be exclusively your own?
