It is not very cozy, but it does make life simpler and cleaning very easy. Some types of people will enjoy it whereas others will not.

would you rather have a cozy castle with old armours standing around and a stuffed bear and shit like that, or a minimalist apartment.
Keeping your room ordered and clean does not equal minimalism

If you want to do based minimalism. Get rid of all social medias and delete your Netflix or any subscription.

living in a city is the antithesis of minimalism. you're literally surrounded by abundance and man's creations. you have access to everything - it's just not stored in the apartment.

it's just strange because the inside is minimal with less physical objects but beyond the walls everything else is maximized in every other way merely by being in the city. even the building they live in is massive - just the space once has access to is small.

Minimal is keeping what you like and not having a garage full of pure garbage like most boomers. I don't know how you could live any other way, if I stop deriving joy from something I'd always prefer the extra space/cash, I do not need shit cluttering up my living space.

Based. Parents kept everything and their house was always a shitshow because of that. Minimalism makes life run smoother because it's easy to not crowd out the things you need for everyday quality living with useless junk that just distracts your thinking.
I'm more Marie Kondo style minimalism. If it doesn't spark joy and isn't required I get it the fuck out of my life.

Middle class boomer houses are depressing as fuck, and ironically indicative of a larger problem.
In every one I’ve been inside of, there’s always either a bathroom tore out and unusable, bare spackled walls/ceilings, carpet ripped up and never replaced, etc.
It’s like there’s “always a project” because “the wife” binge watched a season of fixer upper and is nagging for a subway tile backsplash and a stand up shower. But of course it takes months (even years) to finish something that could be knocked out in less than a week with some help and some willpower, but the former is just “too damn expensive” and the latter is just laughable.
But I can relate, and speaking from experience as a kid, I just want a life/residence that’s simple but quality. None of this cluttered boomer McMansion bullshit.
Kinda off topic but it really fucks your head up as a kid to have a dad with “goals” but zero willpower. It seems small and insignificant but it’s the fast track to your kid being terrified of failure and never finishing anything they start. All because you wanted to sit on your ass and watch sportsball at any moment you’re not at the job you supposedly hate.
Rant over, Happy Father’s Day you sack of shit.
