"Traditional European ArchitectureTM is the best! modern architecture is degenerate!"

"alright, well, putting aside my strong disagreement on the philosophical/ethical undertones of your statement- I do love old buildings! you must be a big proponent of paid apprenticeships for preservation students"

"um what?"

"well, people have to know how to preserve these buildings. and as it stands now, only those willing to go into student debt or with family money to fall back on while they study can afford to learn the techniques involved (unless they're lucky enough to be born into a family with their own preservation contracting business). young people aren't going into these fields even if they want to, because they can't take the financial hit"

"yes but why should anyone have to pay them to learn? they should pull themselves up by their bootstraps!"

"...right. well, what about preservation grants? nationalizing historical site museums?"

"government handouts! no way!"

"preserving and revitalizing traditional forms of building craftsmanship, like decorative masonry or plasterwork, stained glass, tiling, clockmaking, etc?"

"those things cost too much and will hurt the building company's bottom line!"

"talking about the people whose labor made these incredible works of architectural art possible?"

"woke history!"

"adaptive reuse, like letting businesses rent historical buildings with appropriate restrictions on modification?"

"ew! not in my backyard!"

"traditional buildings in styles from other parts of the world?"

"no, no, no! everyone knows western art is the most ~highly evolved~!"

"so, let me get this straight: you just want grand old buildings to be there, and stay perfectly intact, unused for anything, with no effort whatsoever. and you want new buildings to happen in that style but somehow as cheaply as throwing up a glass-and-steel skyscraper that starts falling apart in six months? also only western-style buildings, and we should only talk about very specific people who occupied them?"

"yes!"

"my guy, you don't actually love old architecture"

Sprawling, never-updated, true 1967 time capsule in Lakewood, CA. 7bds, 6ba, 6,763sqft, asking $2.995m. This home was made for entertaining.

Wow, this is grand, but the gold shag carpet is 58 yrs. old and is it ever pilled. Look at that.

There's a brick bar with an awning, here by the family room.

Two pairs of French doors open to the patio. This is a big area for entertaining.

Then, off to the side of the formal sitting area there's a large open dining room.

Check out the elegant guest powder room.

The kitchen is original. It's very large, though, with 2 islands.

Large dining area in the kitchen has a very long counter on the left. You could set out a big buffet there. Plus, guests can walk right out to the pool.

Look at the huge rec room. It has a bar, also, plus access to the pool.

Here we have a guest room with a large bath and a door to the patio. The carpeting should be replaced, though, there're a lot of stains and possibly dry rot by this point.

The bedrooms are very large.

Original bath with blue fixtures and laminate counters.

Another bedroom suite. It's a large home with 7 bds.

The primary is very spacious and rounded with sliding doors to a terrace. The bed was on a raised platform and the carpet is in rough shape. Look at the built-in armoire.

Very large ensuite has a dressing area with a closet.

Family room with lots of built-in shelving, sliders to the garden, and that famous hanging electric fireplace.

The garden, patio and pool area are pretty nice.

.72 acre lot.

Just steps from the golf course.

The smaller building is a spacious attached office/den with its own private entrance and bedroom suite.

To other English people, stop saying "England has no culture", it is actively harming us. There is a reason the Tories defunded the arts and heritage sectors whilst scapegoating immigrants. The fear that immigrants will come and destroy Englishness is only working as the government is literally trying to actively wipe it out. If we a) recognise the things that are distinctly cultural (eg architecture styles) and b) actively participate in the traditions you're always told are silly (Morris and Molly dancing, scarecrow competitions and folk songs), it will actually make us better as a country and more difficult to divide via classism, racism and xenophobia

To be extra clear, these traditions are for everyone, queer people, imagrants and anyone of any faith (including Islam).

The deliberate eroding of our folklore/traditions by conservatives (both big and little c) is allowing for the insecurities weaponised by the types of Tommy Robinson against imagrants. These traditions and folklore do still need challenging from a modern critical lense (like how blackface has been removed from Morris dancing). Nor should they be preserved exactly how they used to be, because folklore and customs have always changed with the times. Having a good understanding of our past, critically understanding and accepting of the problems in it will absolutely contribute to decolonisation. Hopefully, having a solid grasp of our own traditions and folklore in a meaningful positive way will allow us to step back from clinging desperately to the parts of Welsh, Scottish and Irish culture we cling to because we don't think we have our own. Doing so will also hopefully allow for more support of the Welsh, Scottish and Irish independence movements. Also, it will hopefully stop the rampant cultural appropriation of other sacred traditions - it's ridiculous that modern wiccans believe that smudging with a non native plant (white sage) that's being driven to extinction by over harvesting will clear any sort of bad luck.

Loved making this space feel subtly lived in and cozy. Playing on this lot with my own mother/daughter sims has been so cute. Really feels like a family home! And for the lot size, I’m surprised the rooms feel as spacious as they do. Up on the gallery with no mods/cc!
