This is an announcement from Genetic Control:
“It is my sad duty to inform you of a four foot restriction on
Humanoid height”

I hear the directors of Genetic Control have been buying all the
Properties that have recently been sold, taking risks oh so bold
It’s said now that people will be shorter in height
They can fit twice as many in the same building site
They say it’s alright
Beginning with the tenants of the town of Harlow
In the interest of humanity, they’ve been told they must go
Told they must go-go-go-go

Genesis, Get ‘em out by Friday

Greenville is Dupont-level upscale.

I forgot to add that his new mansion is lakeside and his old mansion wasn’t.

The dining room and kitchen marble work are quite nice.

“They can fit twice as many in the same building site”

Many California Democrats would turn LA into Gaza II if they could avoid damage to themselves.

The only thing that stands in the way of a large part of San Francisco being a S.H. is the lack of the hole.

Are you sure that Trump appointed all of them? The article didn’t say.

All the suites look like cold, concrete interrogation rooms, correct?

If all your town’s buildings are being painted gray and white with little bit of red and maybe tiny bit of medium blue, it is the new Mao look.

Never has a building so needed to have scaffolding erected around it for remodeling and then just left there permanently.

I really dislike neo-classicalist buildings, but the statists only have one design, and it’s ugly-depressing-stark-utilitarian.

See https://www.emporis.com/buildings/323694/john-a-hannah-building-lansing-mi-usa for a prime example, but thousands of these monuments to self-loathing exist even here in the US, not to mention the primary examples in PRC or from the Soviet Bloc.

All of the design magazines have gone woke; they’re all in on this.
Architectural Digest is finding D-list or foreign “celebs” and featuring their butt-ugly, uninspiring homes as long as they are people of color.

And most or all of the Ivy League architectural deans are very “woke,” it seems to be more important than actual talent.

Brutalism was really developed in Germany and Putin is more post-Soviet than we are.

In England, it has gotten so bad that they used the Canary Wharf tube station as a set for an Imperial military base for filming Rogue One. All they had to do was to put up appropriate flags. If anything suggests inhu!man architecture, it would be having your public places look like the work of a soulless Empire.
