Another one of the dream apts. I can't afford in NYC. This is a 4bd, 3ba condo in a 1929 building. $4.35M + a ridiculous $10,307mo. HOA fee. (WHAT can you possibly get for $10,307mo.?)
Elegant lobby has a beautiful fireplace and guests arrive to your unit via an elevator on a private mirrored landing. This is Unit 8B, so I'm guessing it's on the 8th fl.
The entrance foyer has a beautiful inlaid floor and a closet.
The living room is spacious and very light. Lovely original fireplace.
Folding doors open to a beautiful dining room with gorgeous wallpaper and 2 large niches. A large window between the niches provide a view of the city.
The eat-in kitchen is fairly large for a NYC apt. It has high-end appliances and a good amount of storage, plus a big window by the sink.
Assuming that this is the primary bedroom. Not very big, but it's okay. (Not $4.35M okay, but it could be decorated nicer.)
The closet/dressing room is nicer than the bedroom.
Then this is one of the baths. It's smallish, but features Carrera marble.
This bedroom has some built-in shelving. It's cute. Would also make a nice home office or TV room if you don't need 4 bds.
This smaller room is very cozy, has some built-in storage, and looks like it has an en-suite.
It's bigger than it looks, b/c according to the floor plan, they didn't show the butler's pantry, the library or the den.

my german cousins (like a 60s dude and his wife. it's so funny to think of them as cousins bc he is really uncle aged. but my dad's sister was a lot older than him & this is her kid) are coming to see my parents and do tourist stuff ~in america~ so my mom texted me a bunch yesterday to ask if i would be willing to show them all around boston (they are also going to nyc and niagara falls) and i REALLY considered ignoring it all altogether bc i would love to not see my parents but manfred and his wife don't deserve that so i called [my parents] today to see what their plan is & of course they have none. i was thinking i could weasel my way into only seeing them all for a day or half day but then my mom said she was thinking the german family could stay at my uncle's house and she and my dad would stay with ME for the weekend and i had to shoot that down immediately. not only would that be barely feasible; if i had to spend all weekend with them in my house i would have to do something drastic. i am really dreading all of this because not only is spending time with my family draining they are also going to make a big fucking fuss about how i wear masks and don't want to eat indoors and i wish i didn't have to deal with it at all lmao. why manfred and his wife want to even come to boston in the first place is beyond me. why can't you guys just spend more time in new york man. leave me out of it
#i mean i do know why they want to come to boston it is an important place in ~American Culture~ i just don't want to be involved#i also don't particularly feel interested in doing a duck boat tour or the freedom trail or going to the tea party museum#god i hate seeing my parents. CHRIST !!! whatever. shouldn't worry about it until it's time to worry about it#chatpost#my mom told me all four of them are staying at my sister's apt in nyc while they're there which is CRAZY to me#her apartment is not much bigger than mine. idk where she's putting them all#maybe i'll get lucky and they'll end up doing something else instead of coming to boston at all

this week kicked my ASS did u know if it gets too hot out the New Jersey transit trains just stop working?? All I’ve been tryna do is type set 12 pages of life after this week and I have four left I will probably finish them today but know I am frustrated to have lost my train drawing time because I had to fist fight my way into the hell hole that is New York City
#important sen fact: I fucking hate New York City#New York in the summer is a specific kind of hell#summer in nyc 2020 was the fucking worst#I didn’t leave my apartment for like 4 weeks at one point cuz I was wfh at the time#nyc has a summer smell and that smell is mountains of trash baked in the hot sun left to simmer because the pavement and tall buildings#TRAP THE HEAT#it was 102 yesterday and I had to take the fucking path train home#missed my therapy apt and had to pay for late cancellation#and was straight up drenched in sweat just standing waiting for the train#because I refuse to not wear pants to work because of gender#wow how 2012 of me to have a full rant in the tags about real life#back to ur regularly scheduled nonsense sorry#nonsense

I have convinced Kevin to keep an open mind about moving back to Miami (we’d have to rent for at least a year and he’s not keen on the idea).
I just don’t want to experience pregnancy + PP so far away from my family again. I have a strong feeling that after my allergy test, we’re going to start trying. However the results come out. Sky will be 3 next month and I’d really like her and baby to not be more than 4/5 years apart. This may be her only sibling and I don’t want such a big age gap.
If Kevin and I are WFH, Sky can go to my Mimi’s sometimes or obviously, be in daycare or school of some kind. If we could live anywhere, it would probably be Barcelona at this point. But I can’t do that to my Mimi. Or to myself. I won’t be isolated again from my family for my whole pregnancy / birth / PP.
Do they drive me nuts? Yup. But they’re mine. I need them in this part of my life.
Whew. We’d be looking to move in October if we end up going through with this. I wonder what we will decide 😅
#really nice 2/2 condos cost the same as our 1/1 apt in the village#which is insane bc Miami is expensive AF#and we had rats and bed bugs in NYC#trying to convince him lolol

truly 2 trans 2 furious is also extremely like [billionsposting as people never meant to be here yet having the symposium while not necessarily having a good time but we can also analyze &/or simply play around with it in other ways with an easy ability to deconstruct things enough for that & perhaps have a good time, perhaps have something way more complicated than that but which could also be called having a good time] like including in its having the "there's a nonbinary f&f character" entry in there at all through kompensoing & monitoring billions since & drawing funny little guys about it (winston, e.g., and taylor) and then also that like, Any & Every Entry in 2 trans 2 furious is of that genre of crucial tour de force visionary symposium understander posts that get 2 notes. and then compiling that is like yes of course this wins an award, a surprise but also not really at all.
#besides fast & furious crossroads besides what i've learned from 2t2f that's my one other thing to say abt f&f. segue into fury road talk#but like for real this is a project of people's Very Specific Posts w/Three Notes that are transcendent & crucial & thee ultimate etc#cam stone entry pretty straightforward like Did You Know This?? (Telling You About It in one page more would be too much)#in an apt & compelling kind of Contrast ofc if it was like ''send a Perspective on winston / billions :)'' dunno i could like whew#but i Can do a one page half illustration 101 Intro To Cam Stone's Existence Yayy#and we can thank [it's years back it's some nyc theatre it's akd cast as lucifer] like now it's billions time now it's f&f crossroads time#wait'll will gets cast in sm shit....stemming from also casting around those times? black suits may have been relevant#looking at you [evan hansen] i sleep [chris thurser] oh shit fr?#& anyways then speaking of roads crossing. taylor & winston despite it all. well what if some connoisseurs tripped & fell over this#and that brings us to this f&f project with a wynnstannery tayficionado power combo move contribution#and the ability to be like yay in whatever fraction we got a lambda award for that Let's go. vroom quarter mile babey &c#truly feels like a fitting contribution amid fitting & completely different contributions yet in an overall project that's like Yeah. yea.#and going lord smh billions and stuff throughout iykyk easier to avoid than f&f but hey i know only enough to go Fury Road Time#probably an alternate timeline where i went zanier like hm a tangent explaining how we even know about this role; personally lol?#but it's like One Page is ambitious enough (for sure a last minute crunch where i had to add in edits around those last minute technical#difficulties lol but it was always gonna happen like that) & being ''matter of fact''ish Explanation / Intro & fond illustrations is like#yeah that's entirely idiosyncratic & Classic in its own way

At first I was confused. I'd posted this NYC condo over a year ago and it hasn't sold. But, then I realized what the realtor did- this is a photoshopped version of what it COULD look like. The 5bd, 5ba, 4,076 sq ft apt. is priced at $8.75m, but this is not what it really looks like.
This is what the new owner would be buying. As far as I'm concerned it's cool, but I guess this is why it hasn't sold. So, let's go on and compare the real thing to the realtor's desperate vision, hoping to sell it.
The large living room looking all white and gray.
And, the large living room as it is. But, the carpet- it's like art. I bet it was expensive. And, I love the interesting light fixture.
In the realtor's vision, a built-in bookshelf appears in the corner and there are draperies. The carpet is gone, in favor of a new wood floor and area rugs.
No curtains, the carpet pattern changes, which is cool. I would probably repaint a brighter color, the walls need a refresh.
This is how the dining room could look. I'm surprised that they kept the built-in corner table. Another built-in shelf, too.
The carpet continues around to the dining room. The place does need painting, the walls look worn.
The kitchen would look like this with a total gut.
Because this is the current kitchen. Check out the floor. Love the Playboy bunny stool. And, look at the cool lights going around the ceiling, that the realtor removed.
The new primary bedroom. It's a nice big room, isn't it?
This is the bedroom now. It's looking a little tired and needs refreshing.
The realtor didn't change the delightful child's room. Look at the colorful little loft above the bed.
This bath, however, is a different story. This is how it could look.
And, this is how it looks now. Lots of mosaics.
They didn't alter this bath. (There are 5). The little pink sink is cute and the blue tile isn't too bad to leave alone.
This is considered an amazing view in Manhattan.
I think I can see NJ.
So, the new owner will have what they call a million dollar view.
It's a huge apt. , which is why it's so expensive. But, a buyer would have to consider the extra cost of remodeling it.

#the affordable rental lotteries in nyc are such a fucking scam why tf are these buildings getting tax breaks for this to build#like... one popped up 3 blocks from us so i looked it up..........and#the ''affordable'' units are literally 1k more a month than our rent stabilized place#and...... smaller?#bruh wtf#like the only positive thing is there's in unit w/d but our building has a w/d we can use in a pinch#and... 1k and a smaller place does NOT make up for the money and time we spend at the laundromat#sooooooooooo?????? why would anyone do that instead of finding a pre-war rent stabilized? like#i think it's easier to get into an apt like ours than the lottery anyways LOL#personal

There is a long pause, like the pipe isn't really sure why he just did that. Then the trickle of blood turns to a thick flow, falling into the sink in coagulated chunks before it turns into a steady flow. The smell is atrocious, like a slaughterhouse.
In the doorway behind him, a shadow takes shape-- a woman, her sallow skin sagging from her body in strange places, nude except for her head which is covered in an old wicker bee keepers mask. She doesn't speak yet.
just an average wednesday // anonymous
HE RECOGNIZES THE folly of his ways when the faucet sputters. It sounds bad - he almost turns it off, but then it's running, and there's chunks, and he lets out a long string of curses that can't be repeated on print. He lets it run for a second, wondering if it'll clear itself out, and he turns it off once it's clear that won't be the case. Alright, fine - he's awake again, fully.
HE TURNS AROUND away from it, taking his phone out so he can call his brother, but he thinks he sees something in his periphery. He blinks, takes a better look - screams once he sees that it's some random bitch, and goes for a kitchen knife.

There’s a mouse in my apartment and I have a severe, almost crippling! mouse phobia. I’m serious, it’s the only thing that I’m this frightened of, I cried for hours last night and barricaded myself in my room, I hate this so fucking much
I’m going to go out to buy traps this morning and set them up. But does anybody have any tips about handling crippling fear of mice?
#this definitely originated during my childhood#when i was like 7 or 8 a family of mice infested our house and I saw them scurrying along the walls in my room#and it literally traumatized me for life i still have nightmares about it#so this is like the end of the fucking world for me#and yes i have lived in a NYC apt for 3 years and this is my first mouse#so pretty good record tbh#doesn’t mean I’m happy about it#mine#mice#mouse#phobia

i've been having such great days in this apt
this happens to me a lot where i'm vibing in my schedule even when parts of my day are pretty bad
these days i've been loving waking up in my apt
it truly informs every part of my day and being and i don't know whether i should be happy about the self knowledge or concerned that it's way too much influence to give your surroundings in your life
i am paying a crazy amount to be living here but i don't mind it
it's a spot for me and and maybe sometimes friends but mostly me
anyways i've been waking up late and making my way over to the office for lunch and i just love having the mornings off pretty much, have some meetings, then get to come home after work and it's great
