"15 Mid-Century Modern Dream Homes that will Kill Your Children"

Generally I am not keen on a lot of 20th architecture but some of these are quite nice.


The clean lines, the geometric decorative elements, the seamless blending of indoor and outdoor space… I sure do love mid-century modern architecture.

Do you know what I love more? My children. And that is why I will never live in my MCM dream home. Because mid-century modern architecture is designed to KILL YOUR CHILDREN. (Also, moderately clumsy or drunk adults).

I'm not entirely sure I could navigate those stairs.

I make the mistake of beginning to read the comments on that post, and discovered what a good proxy "I'm childfree, therefore NO ONE ELSE should care about the children!11!" can be for ableism toward adults.

Those stairs are terrifying.

Also, have learned that architecture fandom is very easy to troll.

Replace architecture with any word you care to nominate, or no word at all.
