Ayn Rand and the World She Made posted:

When Rand was five or so, she recalled, her mother came into the children's playroom and found the floor littered with toys. She announced to Rand and Rand's two-and-a-half-year-old sister, Natasha, that they would have to choose some of their toys to put away and some to keep and play with now; in a year, she told them, they could trade the toys they had kept for those they had put away. Natasha held on to the toys she liked best, but Rand, imagining the pleasure she would get from having her favorite toys returned to her later, handed over her best-loved playthings, including a painted mechanical wind-up chicken she could describe vividly fifty years later. When the time came to make the swap and Rand asked for her toys back, her mother looked amused, Rand recalled. Anna explained she had given everything to an orphanage, on the premise that if her daughters had really wanted their toys they wouldn't have relinquished them in the first place.

It’s the same message that first gestated in his mind when his parents would take him and his younger siblings for ice cream after church on Sundays and his dad would confiscate large bites out of each of their cones, explaining, “This is income tax” or “This is property tax.”

PSA

Why would any of y’all send me a message saying “MCMANSIONS ARE AWESOME NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO FOLLOW THE RULES WHY ARE YOU SO MEAN” etc

Bruh, this is a blog devoted to hating McMansions. If I hate something enough to make a blog devoted to hating it, you’re little blurbs about my alleged saltiness are not going to change my mind.

The point of this blog is to educate people about architecture (both bad and good) through a combination of colorful roasting and informative guides.

Finally, if rants about architecture personally offend you, may I remind you that you are not a building.

Hope more places crack down like this because anti-vaxx stupidity is legitimately a health risk.

I don't get it. A cool tow truck picks up a car and drives away?

"This happened yesterday on the parking lot of the Festival Andanças, an International festival in Portugal for the promotion of popular music and dance. The fire started in one of the parked cars and propagated quickly due to the summer high temperatures and the very close proximity the cars were parked.

It was the worst accident of this type in Portugal history, 422 cars were completely destroyed. There are no fatalities or serious injuries although some people had to be assisted on site. Insurance companies have gathered for an emergency meeting."

I can imagine that insurance meeting, and trying to find a way to not cover all the cars.

My response comes from me being a foster parent and seeing mental abuse first hand.

ratbert90 posted:

More like; being a good parent means you shouldn't teach your children that mild infractions lead to wild over the top punishments that do nothing but harbor ill-will and fear instead of understanding and respect.

_{Handing out punishments like what Rough Lobster's dad did was not only crazy over the top, but most people who were mentally abused, especially by somebody in a position of power will make plenty of excuses as to how it wasn't mental abuse. Rough Lobster's dad's punishment did absolutely nothing to stop the root of the problem, and instead went straight for the "I have more power than you and thus I can make your life miserable you little poo poo you WILL respect me" angle. It was mentally abusive and power hungry. Just like spanking is physically abusive and only serves a purpose for immediate physical compliance.}
