Imagine having hope for the future. What a time to have been alive.
- Must've been nice to have optimistic futurism, now even the fiction is with just modern neoliberalism in space or a glowing worship of fascism
  
  Back then they actually hoped for technology aiding in the liberation of the human spirit, instead of the daily dread of what torment nexus is going to be implemented next.
- Imaging wanting a unique style and unique aesthetic instead of Pinterest copy-paste all beige/grey.

All of this is rad as hell.

the taps are sick
- Reminds me of
  's ship from Episode 1.
  
  Unfortunately, every time the hot water starts to drip you have to find a nine year old to coerce into doing NASCAR so you can afford to buy a replacement cartridge from a slave-owning racist stereotype.
- Yes

the tiles look like they're made out of that radioactive glass used in kitchenware
- Uranium Glass!
  Interestingly, not available in this aesthetic, since the US banned the use of uranium salts and production ended in 1958. Most examples are from before that, and were typically depression glass pieces.
  
  oh curious, I always thought that was a post WW2 era thing

That’s dope but also may as well be a sign that says “asbestos inside”

goes hard

guys only want one thing and it's rad as hell
- rad indeed
- Rad is short for radiation in this case

I do love those green boomerang tiles
- I love the spaceship-shaped faucet.

That's so kitsch. Some of it I love, some of it fuck no.

I'm not seeing how this is loss

Kinda like it ngl..

Wish I had the money to own a house and add on custom tiles and faucets...
- We have always been building houses with tile in them. The difference is that the market today makes it prohibitively expensive to go through the abstraction of labor hours to wages/savings to products.
  But if you short-circuit the process and just do it yourself (and probably break a bunch of zoning codes), you can just get a house directly the way people did it for thousands of years.

Your mom’s house… the final frontier…

Just got word of another settlement that needs our help, I'll mark it on your map.

this is cool

Fallout house?

I actually think the retro futurism sort of decor could look nice, if it wasn't always surrounded by those pastel pinks and greens.

I absolutely love this.

what
