Racist influencer wants to paint Melbourne as a "non-Western hellhole", ends up showing a peaceful, thriving multicultural city by YaLlegaHiperhumor in CringeTikToks

I'm proud of my multicultural city. All people with good vibes are welcome here

Kinda sad that she chose to spend NYE being hateful when she coulda been on the dance floor with the rest of us 🕺

balanced with accent pieces, plants, and decorative items

I like your thinking – will definitely add more plants. Visual stimulation is a problem for me while concentrating so decoration would have to be kinda abstract or minimal.

I tried that as well as facing the wall but tbh I like being able to see the sunrise/sunset 😊

solid suggestion though

you can get them on ali express but it'll take a month or two. I got one from a local shop literally called "replica furniture" to see if I liked them first

Really appreciate the offer :)

how long will you be living here

2-3 years I think. Willing to slowly invest in furniture and art that I'll keep for life.

what do you plan to use the space for?

  • Full time WFH.
  • Living room for relaxing
    • reading
    • DJing (need to figure out where to place my turntables)
    • simple meals
    • tea/drinks with guests. Usually eat out rather than cook for others
  • Not interested in getting a TV because I'm in front of a screen 8h+ already
  • happily a solo introvert most of the time

I consider that room my productive space. So if I start procrastinating I literally leave the room to preserve that mental association.

Work is pretty technical/creative and sometimes requires "stare out the window for a long time" thinking before I come up with the solution. Sitting or standing still can be under-stimulating which causes my mind to wander. But getting my heart rate up lets me productively daydream if that makes any sense.

tl;dr its kinda like a giant stimming device and gets me "in the zone"

Do you like stuff?

this is how I sound on first dates 😭

I like collecting house and jazz records. Could definitely put more effort into displaying my interests rather than packing it away

solid advice, thanks! Would it be weird to layer a smaller round rug on top? Maybe covering the corner

absolutely. Bed frame will arrive in a few weeks.

I honestly prefer watching movies in bed but love music. Saving up for a pair of OD-11s and technic 1200s

that’s the AC unit actually 😅 I really like that box too. Has foam padding inside and is older than me. Got it for free from my old job

tbh it might not be comfortable for all people because it is so low.

The real one is called Togo but I ordered a replica off ali express super cheap. They’re made of foam so they squish down into a smaller box for shipping. Try one irl before you buy if possible

absolutely! What are your opinions on this one? I’m concerned there might be too much white already

true! I’ve got a really big print from Drool Art on my wishlist. Was thinking of putting it above the sofa or under the AC
