You don’t tear out an architectural feature like that. You make it a focal point.
One ginormous cannabis tree!
A bow front fish tank would go so nice there
An altar to the elder gods.
Punching bag hanging from the ceiling.
Better yet, hanging from the floor
Stormtrooper
Aquarium.

I don’t live in a huge house but if I had to go back to a tiny apartment with nowhere to put stuff I would just end it. Fucking terrible way to live.

We have to start building cities in the countryside.
Car dependence hellscape with no efficient use of space*
I would say the fascism is what’s wrong. Buts that’s just me.
I’ll take School Shootings and Privatized Healthcare for $100, Trebek.

Many would say that all of Manhattan is wasted space and the most of America is wide open so why not use it?
Not sure about that one chief.
Half the US lives in cities. It’s not an inaccurate assumption. They’d be wrong, still.
Ninety-nine percent of American cities still have more and cheaper square footage than Manhattan.

This is true, but on the flip side, 99% of American cities aren’t Manhattan.
Which is another upside of them.
Not for everyone driving up the cost of rent in Manhattan, apparently.
Everyone talking about Christmas trees but that’s obviously where you put the cheap-ass “Venus de Milo” replica to go with your Mac mansion.
is a mac mansion a mcmansion styled like the imac g3 because if so i am in
No no, it’s the Scottish version.
Dang, I was hoping for a mansion filled w/ mac and cheese.
Make Justin Long stand in the Mac Mansion while John Hodgeman stands outside the Public Community housing.
I’d go with this
Ya know, that was what I had in my head too, but I couldn’t describe it properly like you did.
Elaborate throne spot if ever i saw one
Halloween skeleton in a chair.
Pretty much the perfect spot for any and all holiday decorations
I’m imagining an easter party:
That’s beyond weird.
I’ve stolen it. I’m sure I’ll find a use for it somewhere
cat tree obvs
Cat throne
I know with 100% certainty a cat would jump from the second story and knock a cat tree right the hell over
With tall cat trees; if it’s not in a corner you’ve gotta anchor it down. Some even come with brackets to screw them to the wall.
I have a 9 foot cat tower that is tensioned into place against the ceiling. My 14 pound cat flies on and off it like the floor is lava, and it hasn’t budged yet
that was literally made for a big family that likes taking pictures around the christmas tree like in the movies
Shouldn’t have been raised above the rest of the floor. Now you’ve got to use a relatively skinny tree and you can’t put a train or tree skirt around it.
Put the tree relatively far forward, cover the step with a nice skirt, then put your train along the front edge of the step with smaller presents below it and larger ones behind it.
The step makes the tree and the pile of stuff under look bigger than they are and makes a nice raised platform for the train to run along.
Okay, I did the math (or rather, found an online calculator to do the math for me) and, assuming a tread depth of 10" and therefore a platform radius of 60", you could fit a 48" diameter train track on it. Not great, not terrible for O-scale, but barely big enough for the most cramped G-scale circle (which might’ve otherwise been preferred to stay in proportion with a tall tree in the high-ceilinged room).
This guy’s mom took tylenol while pregnant.
Call a plumber. Install a toilet or, if there’s space, a claw-footed tub with the whole over-head bath curtain around it. Embrace the awkward
Pooping eye contact with your guests on Thanksgiving is a real power move
I vote a functioning toilet. Completely visible, no curtains.
Life-sized LEGO Christmas tree
It’s only good for a tree if there is a living room that can see it.
I want to start with “I’m not rich”
One of the luxuries I afford myself is more than one Christmas tree.
They smell great.
My gremlin ass cats LOVE THEM.
And blinken lights.
I recommend you too splurge if you can.
I’d have a tree here for display and (it’s only) smellz.
Oh heck yeah, I just want at least one tree I can see from my primary seating area.
Or if you walk past it as you enter your home.
Hah, walkable cities! Good one! If only…
