consequences of living at home as an adult: fighting over the thermostat
#🍄.txt#i’m sorry i genuinely do not care if ur a little cold… put on a sweater#do you know how much more difficult it is when it’s hot?? because it’s NOT the same as it being cold#especially in the summer. like you can’t tell me that doesn’t factor in#nooooo no no no im not doing it anymore seriously it’s getting ridiculous#oomf always complaining her dad has the house in the 60s year round meanwhile my mom keeps this bitch like a fucking oven#stay at home daughter swap PLEASE. i actually fucking hate it here#WE HAVE TWO THERMOSTATS MIND YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! IM ALONE UPSTAIRS#OH MY GODDDDDD

i just sneezed unexpectedly and fell off the bed, proceeding to bonk my head on the same wall i ran into earlier and rip my phone out of the charger
help
#I don't even know what I'm doin#I'm just here and this hotel room wants to kill me#ITS LIKE 75 DEGREES BUT THE THERMOSTAT WONT TURN DOWN#IT BE FINE IF I WASNT DYING OF HEAT RN#I am a cold blooded creature who needs it to be cold so I can be comfy#But it is w a r m#And I can't use the VLANKET HELP#Ow#my head says ow#I also got myself trapped in a snowdrift couple days ago for like... 10 minutes#And I think the snow cursed me#Like#rvil snow or somethin#Why I keep bonkin my bones#It's only 10:30#Wait no it's 11:30 in my normal timezone#I'm not at home#Help

big day for me i’ve finally reached the comfort level at my bf’s to be able to turn the thermostat up a couple notches when i’m home alone!!!!
#lol growing up poor will have you be terrified to touch the thermostat in a home you don’t own#to be fair tho he always tells me to turn it up if i’m cold i just layer up instead

This is my first time ever living in a multi-story home. (I've lived in multi-story buildings before, but I only ever lived on one floor of those buildings at a time.) So I'm really not sure what to do about the fact that there's only one thermostat but the first and second floors have pretty different temperatures.
#the thermostat is on the second floor#so even if I turn the heat on the first floor is still pretty cold by the time the second floor reaches temperature#I think the second floor might have more vents too#maybe I should get a space heater for my living room#where I grew up there weren't townhouses like this#and only rich people had two story houses#well--that's not quite fair there were some new developments that had two story houses that (when I was a kid) an upper middle class family#could just manage to afford#plus there were a couple families in my parents' social group that just about straddled the line between upper middle class and rich#(mostly lawyers but also a few particularly successful doctors)#and some of them also had multi-story homes#so I did actually know a few people who had multi-story homes

if three years and four shots later I've caught covid I'm going to be so pissed off
#kee speaks#i was doing so much better this morning asides from a cough#but now suddenly i'm all achy again and absolutely freezing while wearing a hoodie and under blankets#and i checked the thermostat and it says its 23 degrees in the house#so it's not cold enough for me to be this fucking cold#i have a home test from last year that i'll take tomorrow morning#idk if it'll still be accurate but worth a shot#i certainly aint leaving the house to get a fresh one

"It even connects to your smart phone!"
Well... that's a huge downside for something to have, don't like that
#don't like it cause not only might it be harvesting data on me; but that also means it probably is real susceptible#to the manufacturer just deciding they don't support it anymore; specifically with software#and of course that not just meaning 'not support' but meaning 'we've bricked your working device'#like I get why people like it; the convenience of your whole life in the palm of your hand#but I don't trust like that#to me it's an unneeded massive point of failure that risks me not actually owning the physical thing I bought#this is about a density meter for like... figuring alcohol content in home brewing#and like... neat... but the moment they said 'it even connects to your smart phone' that's a massive red flag to me and I don't like that#takes it from 'if I ever start brewing maybe I should get that'#to '...man... I don't know that I trust them not to brick my shit with hostile software'#know nothing about the company; but that's how I feel about all app based shit#maybe just like... measure my shit for me and keep and internal log... oh; and a usb port and the ability to interface with standard OSs#that would be nice; like then I can rip the logs off your thing onto my computer#but nah... I don't want a phone involved unless I plug it in with a usb#I'd rather it be a little less convenient for me; but not use a wifi signal#cause then you can't fuck with it; no one can fuck with it; except me when I plug direct into it#...don't want my shit connecting to the internet; and that's the other problem with apps#they pretty much can't mean anything but an internet connection... cause how else does it talk to your phone?#if it's not my computer; frankly it should be dumb and totally offline with usb ports (or other HDMI whatever) for communicating#tv should be a dumb blackbox; oven should be a dumb blackbox; sadly even thermostats and shit should be a dumb blackbox#this shit makes life easier... till it doesn't; and if I don't have total control over it then someone else does#like... if I have a closed system smart home; that's one thing; but if I use a standard one that means anyone can access it#both in terms of random employees being caught peeping on me (and tos that say they're allowed to gather data on my sexuality and shit)#to the fact that if it hooks up to the internet and someone can connect to it... they just have to get past security and they're in#like my car shouldn't fucking be harvesting data on me; that tos example wasn't random; that's lifted from one of car companies tos#online is vulnerable; online is unsecured more often than not; it's a fucking risk that isn't worth it#it's like all those keyless cars getting stolen cause all they gotta do is catch your fob's signal and then spoof it#I want it dumb and connecting to nothing 95% of the time#sometimes I want it dumb and connecting only with a direct wire#I in theory might want it smart but on a closed home network I have complete control over

muffled screaming
#mine#maintenance came by for a work order. the thermostat keeps resetting to 68deg#guy claimed it's bc the air filters I installed in the vents were blocking the airflow and causing it to reset#and also that they're a fire hazard#which is buckwild to me bc every other home I've lived in has managed the temp just fine w these#and why are the vents getting so hot that an air filter designed for vents is a fire hazard

Ok it's driving me mad, I keep seeing these blaze ads for smart home shit and interior design from the same blog and the pictures are all fucking creepy.
It's all so bland and lifeless. Like muted grey's and white's. The decor items are like fake plants and gold trimmed metal tat. It might be AI generated but even if it isn't it just looks viscerally unappealing to see.
Where are the earth tones? Where are the textures? Where are the gradients and complimentary colours?
There was one picture of a bathroom I saw that looked so fucking sterile you could perform surgery on the perfectly lain tile floor. The living room looks like a shitty purgatory waiting room.
Where is all of the fucking colours? Where is the humanity? Why is this more soulless than my ginger ass?
#also I didn't even really read the pitch the first few times and didn't know it was for smart home shit#so fuck all of that#the only computers capable of independent thought in my house should be the phones and the computers. thermostat? analog. tv? box for flashy#pictures that can't get said pictures on its own. appliances? should be my age or older and as capable of using the internet as my deceased#grandad.#fuck smart devices

Things are really. Well.
#things are so messy#holy shit theyre so messy its so tough to deal with its so fucked#my roommate moved her loser deadbeat boyfriend in without telling us#and at the same time didnt ask him to pay rent#and now we pay all his bills and he just games all day#and she installed a bunch of google home thermostats so we couldnt lower the ac anymore#and removed a bunch of lightbulbs bc we were leaving the lights on#bc apparently utilities went up#so shes trying to raise rent on our friend max#who isnt moving out and still lives there#but he has the shittiest smallest room in the house#and i feel bad for him#and we dont even have a new place lined up
