This absolutely tracks with my wife and my experience. We life in the smallest home of our entire relationship but are so much happier because of the location. We live in the 15 minute city meme and it’s absolutely fabulous.
A Washington Post article suggests that, beyond a certain threshold, larger homes don't make people happier. Instead, well-being is correlated with affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods where they feel socially connected.

![Excerpt reads: "Prioritize your neighborhood
Neighborhoods drive our happiness (or unhappiness) more than we think.
When Lina Martinez, director of POLIS, the Center for Wellbeing Studies at Universidad Icesi in Colombia, studied the happiness of households in the city of Cali, she couldn’t find much difference between poorer and richer areas. “Their happiness is pretty much the same,” she said. But that changed when she isolated neighborhood conditions, such as access to transit, health care and parks. “The conditions of the neighborhood affect happiness,” she said. “I can’t link that to the space where [people] live.”
That aligns with findings from a 2023 study of the Vancouver metro area: Researchers found no significant differences in well-being between people living in single detached homes, duplexes, townhouses, laneway houses and apartment buildings (basement units smaller than 300 square feet were the only negative exception). What did people say they missed most in their neighborhood? Affordability, proximity to family and friends, and a sense of community. Home design was eighth on the list."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ks3gpa6ftoyaq7hmf6c4qx4c/bafkreicapfknasylzk2lqzaxxeb5mchgnru75obggn45dusda6j5zogvuu@jpeg)

Okay hear me out. The the car community would go absolutely feral over the new charger if it was called anything else or if it was made by any non-American car company.
It’s certainly not a sports car, it’s not a muscle car. But the hurricane I6 has the potential to be an absolute monster.

Don’t know how to feel about that. Anything is better than last season but just how are other teams so clinical against us.

I would genuinely fly out to Montana or whatever state if one of these people could coherently explain their political economy to me. Like, walk me through the thought process and tradeoffs they’re making when they decide to vote for republicans.

These things are the biggest own goal retail stores have made. Gave up after 10 minutes of waiting and nobody showed up to open the case. Found what I needed online for 30% cheaper and it’ll be here in two days.

I’ve always wanted my autocorrect to say the 14 words.
People are skipping right past the part about rewriting “the entire corpus of human knowledge.”
I know it's an ableist slur to call someone 'mental'.
So we should just call this what it is: fucking stupid

This isn't about protecting children. It's about policing a gender system that puts everyone in a pink box or a blue one, that gives people higher social value if they're pinker or bluer than their box-mates, and that puts the whole pink box below the blue.
🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
