No, it's not the lack of straight white males under 60, that's been a thing. No, I'm seeing a ton of "California Closets" commercials where your dwelling is made up of hideaway beds and desks, etc. And then I'm seeing a completely different company selling something else and the couple gets out of a...hideaway fold up bed. Setting the mental stage slaves. Stay in your small cubicles while the elites get acres and acres of land to see you coming 20 miles away.

I don't do TV so I wouldn't know what crap they're peddling now.
No TV? What's all your furniture pointed at? kek
If you look at pictures of rooms in the 60s or 70s, the furniture was usually arranged to facilitate conversation, and the TV didn't dominate the room. Nowadays the whole house "open concept" is all about making sure everyone can see and hear the tell a vision. I don't like it.
I'm currently restoring a 1957 mid century home and have spent an inordinate amount of time studying MCM rooms and floor plans. So I know just exactly what you mean regarding conversation spaces. Rooms were never teevee centric and there were separate areas for everything. I kinda despise that whole Great Room concept where there's one big open space filled with poofy barcaloungers all pointing at the black box from hell. There's no mystery, no flow, no intimacy and NO escaping the PROGRAMMING.
Yes! I lived in a 1964 mid mod ranch, in mostly original condition, and I LOVVVVVED that house. Loved it. Cozy, comfortable, everything made sense for living. Life changed and we went to an open concept style. I didn't know how much i would hate it. The kitchen was in the living room and the bedroom. Food odors everywhere all the time. We bought a huge tv bc it seemed like the thing to do, and then the tv was in the kitchen and the bedroom. Hated it. Sold it to a couple who planned to put an even bigger tv in, tvs in every room, and a tv on the patio by the pool. Good for them. Glad to see it go. Haven't had a tv since.
I see what you did there.
Tell lie vision, tell a vision program, its all the same damn thing
It really is.
I saw a collagen commercial with 2 different trannies in it. Trying to normalize it
I have seen most everything else in commercials, but not one with two tranny's--that I know of, I presume they would have to make it very obvious.
Glad bags - cherry blossom scent - total tranny commercial- disgusting the attempting to normalize this disgusting behaviorz
Cherry blossom scented trash bags.. kind of a fitting analogy for them though if you think about it 😆
Home ownership was the American dream. “My grandpa built this house with his bare hands” was a common phrase 50 years ago. Sears Roebuck had a house for sale in their catalog that a person with reasonable skills could assemble.
My grandfather built a Sears Roebuck house in Arkansas— I loved it — gone now and property is now a corporation farm ( he raised seven kids in the 30’s — their mom — my grandmother died when my mother was 10) life is a bitch but people manage to pull through— culls out the weak I guess
Yes, like the sudden boom of the 'tiny home' trend. Getting sheep used to their stalls.
Tiny Homes was on while I was at an oil change, yesterday. I get minimalism and actually try to live by that principle-- however, sharing 240 square feet with someone is not something I would find enjoyable. A loft bed is fun until it isn't... and then what?
Nope! I have a 1365sf house on an acre of land— at times there was 4 people-3 dogs and two cats — close but doable— currently 2 adults and 3 dogs- plenty of room— I never saw the need for 2500-3500sf or more unless you have 7-8 kids— more to clean and heat and cool— the mini mansion is almost as stupid as the tiny house ( also stupid)
Ha! I'm just thinking about how terrible it would be in there after sharing a pot of ham n' beans.
Female here. It isn't "thunder butt" it's a symphonic declaration. ☺️
This particular comment thread is why I come to ga.win.
Butt thunder. KEK
"My fellow Americans, the storm is upon us."
Always has been and Ive viewed intermittently since the late 50’s — boob tube - i rarely watch anything now
Idiot box (that's my favorite term for it).
There's 2 men kissing on one of the commercials.
That one makes me want to puke.
I haven't owned a television for decades, I cannot even imagine paying good money to have this kind of filth pumped into my home.
15 minute cities are a go in UK. Noone voted for it but bollards are being installed to stop drivers
I’ve acted in over 100 commercials in my life. It’s my bread and butter. I barely get auditions anymore because they aren’t casting white people. Especially white men. If they are white they are redheads. I remember when celebrities started doing commercials, then most commercials went non-Union…now this. I’m trying to ride the wave and bide my time but It really seems like it’s not going away.
Interesting experience! Very cool first hand knowledge.
I must be “elite” then. Woohoo!
Seriously, peeps need to let go of their programmed boxes. You may think your on to them, but as long as you watch it, they have you and your data. Also, you have no idea what else they are sending or receiving through the box. Do yourself and family a favor, lose the box.
I dont have a tv, but this still applies to all of us using the internet, too
We don't have a tell a vision either
They are pushing to make 2024 the official kick-off for entering into Fourth Reich/Fourth Revolution.
I wish.
Stop watching TV
Commercials, I don't see anyone white anymore. Not just less, but none, like mean I see all sorts of "diversity " but none of it is white either male or female. None of it is real or authentic. Just shitty people selling shitty products. As in phony and fake.
I no longer watch major networks.....
I wouldn't watch HBOs new 'hit' show The Last Us if I were you...
To be fair, I have a soft spot for folding furniture; I like camping, glamping and the idea of taking big things and making them shrinkable so I can fit it in a tight spot.
I'll never live in a smart city though.
I actually can't handle the stress of living in a city, I require the peace of rural life.
Right there with ya. It's one thing to have a collapsible/compact dwelling if you're purposely in a tight location, need to leave quick, etc. But to live like a sardine on purpose is insanity. Of course considering what their doing to society, it isn't suprising.
Klause shaubs home makes the Queen's balmoral estate look like a mini golf course
WHs taking everything to the nth degree...
Even further back - the tiny house craze.
