It’s going to impact initial emotions, which filters how they see it after even as they imagine it different

You get used to it as an eternal renter

We don’t use checks except very rarely and we have manufactured houses (called mobile homes here). They just don’t come with the land under them so they constantly lose value and cost rent for the lot, are generally smaller and worse than in situ buildings, and are stigmatized as “for poor people” because of the fact that they’re cheap in the moment and expensive long term, which is the opposite of normal housing.

To clarify what others are saying, the design and layouts are repeated, but done in situ. So especially in a new house/neighborhood you’ll have a neighborhood with maybe 1-4 variations (possibly also mirrored versions of them), but each was made on the spot with a mostly standardized lot. Then over time some will slowly be modified and they’ll all get their owners’ touches to them.

It’s very much an industrial process in the suburbs starting after the world wars.

I think the happy medium is modernism. A handful of colors that look good together, maybe a simple pattern or two. Idk i think the 60s and 70s both had great home aesthetics

I’d love to see someone try to explain how As You Like It is Hamlet

It’s my favorite app to play around with

Yep! My high school chemistry teacher taught me a trick for it and it’s such a useful tool. Add in my college physics class teaching us the format of “list what you know, then list what you need, then list the formulas to convert what you know into what you need and then keep looking for the values you’re missing”. Those two tricks are stuff I still use in my career

As someone witn just adhd (and memory problems) that was my experience. I did well in engineering school once I got a bit in. Going into every exam figuring out formulas I forgot based on what I knew was shockingly effective. And when in doubt, the units were always a hint

That’s how stores used to work until I think the early 20th century

I miss Aldi. My region really needs to get it

What was old becomes new again

Who called the cops‽

Ok but green is so good…

And they’re always understaffed. I hate having to wait several minutes for someone to come unlock the contact solution I didn’t realize I needed until I was trying to go to bed

If you don’t get much fall foliage that drive can be majestic in autumn. Otherwise maybe

Nice try, still not vaping

Glad to have you back violet

They don’t have to cut it off, it simply recedes under the right social conditions
