Former 1870 bakery superbly converted to a home in Carlton North, Victoria, Australia, a suburb of Melbourne. It stayed a bakery until 1967 and had 3 horse stables on the side that are now bedrooms. 7bds, 4ba, $1.475M.
It has a huge living room that opens to the courtyard. Love the ceiling and the the pipe that is a hint of the building's former life. Isn't the corner fireplace cute?
I love the open airy layout, but if you want completely open concept, this home is not for you. Isn't the kitchen lovely? It has a huge island and row of windows that face the courtyard and let in lots of sunshine.
Isn't the dining room fabulous? And look at the atrium in the middle of the house.
This lovely bedroom has a glass door that opens to the atrium. How beautiful is that?
The upper level bedroom has vaulted ceilings, beams, and doors to a terrace. It might be the primary suite.
This could either be a casual dining room, a library or a den.
A kitchen table is in this wing, which is very light and open.
The current owners have this area set up as a home office. This home certainly brings the outdoors in.
A secondary bedroom that opens to the patio has a lovely beamed ceiling.
The architectural feature in this bedroom gives it a lot of interest. It appears to be one of the stable bedrooms.
This home has an awful lot of tables and chairs. I guess the owners didn't know what else to do to with all the space, but this table is next to the kitchen.
This is another dining room with doors to the garden. There's a sofa and book shelving, so this room would make a nice den or even an art studio.
This nice bedroom has its own en-suite and would make a great guest room.
Cute cheery room for children.
Isn't the garden beautiful?
This little cobblestone alley is an entrance.
That must be Melbourne in the background, so it's not far from the city.
There's this diagram, but the realtor doesn't give the dimensions of the property.

don't hug me i'm scared episode 6 electricity is really something when you're autistic, huh. yellow guy is made fun of all his life by his only friends and laughed at for being "stupid" when all he needed was a change of batteries but no one would listen to him and give him the accommodations he needed and deserved and when he finally did get new batteries and become more clearheaded his friends didn't like him any better. they stopped making fun of him, sure, but they didn't like that he was "smart" all of a sudden, because they'd gotten used to him being "the stupid one". and he looked in the mirror and saw his former self, and his reflection asked him, "have we gone wrong? they seem upset with us" because the truth is even if the way you are now is more comfortable for you, even if it doesn't hurt to think anymore, people will only ever like you if you're the Right Kind of autistic/adhd/traumatized/whatever. have we gone wrong? have we gone wrong? that's what you always ask yourself. "maybe they're not in charge of us anymore." "maybe they never were." and his reflection walks away, as if accepting that the others will think what they will think, and it won't matter, because yellow guy is his own person, no matter how difficult it is for him to articulate his thoughts, and he doesn't need their approval to think. "maybe they never were."

Did Saint-Just ever talk about women’s education?
He sure did! In his Fragments sur les institutions républicaines, he details his idea for the education of girls. Which is as follows:
Les filles sont élevées dans la maison maternelle.
(The girls are educated in maternal home)
That's it. And it comes after a lengthily discussion on the education of boys. So it does sound like SJ remembered girls only as an afterthought, and didn't have much to say on the topic. (I mean, he definitely didn't have much to say on the topic because if he had more ideas, he'd write them down).
Now, I am not sure what this means exactly. That girls should not have much education? Or that any education done to girls should be done in the home? (Those are two very, very different options). SJ was big on protecting girls and women from sexual violence (sometimes seen as going outside without a protector), so maybe this is a reflection on that?
Don't get me wrong, this whole education for women is a big L from him, but he grew up at a time where female literacy was becoming a norm, at least for bourgeoise girls. They would get some education on things deemed important for a girl; SJ's own sisters were literate. So I doubt he would want girls to have absolutely no education, or only what their mother can teach (?) I mean, maybe? But that would be mega stupid, because you want the woman of the future Republic to know enough about the world so they can instill patriotic values in their daughters, so they can be good mothers and wives of the future republicans, if nothing else.
So my interpretation is that he got caught so much into developing that idea of friendship-filled, Sparta-inspired program of education for boys that he forgot about the existence of girls until late. And he didn't care that much about it, past "yes, girls get some education". So yes, an L from SJ on this one, but it is too limited to conclude what exactly he thought about the education of women or what he saw as an "appropriate" education for them.

Beautifully done 1920 factory conversion in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. True industrial style loft has 3bds, 3ba, $950K + $598mo. HOA. (If it's a condo there's always HOA maintenance, no avoiding it, but fees do vary, so some are more reasonable than others.)
The elevator brings you to your private foyer entrance.
This home is huge. Great for maximalists and those who like a lot of room to spread out.
Large area for a dining room space in front of the patio doors.
Very open concept and they've added some walls to make rooms, but still extremely factory-like.
All of the industrial elements were preserved, including the typical vintage columns and exposed brick.
Beautiful kitchen, love the colors of the cabinets. The sitting area is set up right in front of the kitchen so that family and guests can interact.
This recessed brick area makes a great home office or den.
There are actually 2 spaces like this, so there are a lot of possibilities.
Spacious primary bedroom is not enclosed, but it's tucked into a corner.
It has a nice walk-in closet.
Plus, a beautiful, big en-suite.
Bd. #2 is very roomy and can fit chairs, a sofa and desk.
Bd. #3 is also lovely and all 3 bds. get a lot of natural light.
The covered patio is very large, but there's a roof in front of it.
This unit comes with 2 indoor parking spaces and 1 outdoor, which is pretty good.
Since I'm a city person, I like the way the neighborhood looks.

can't stop thinking about crowley as an angel not getting what makes humanity so special that their end should bring about the end of His Universe That He Made versus demon crowley, 2 seconds into being on earth, being like hm maybe humanity really IS special and kicking off the personal journey that will lead to him eventually begging god directly not to destroy humanity as a test/game, not just because it would end the universe but also because it would end humanity
