      And tomorrow they’ll post a picture of a 10,000$ gaming setup with LEDs and shit and claim that women can’t possibly understand spending a ton of money on furniture and decorations.

      Not to mention that this joke has been done to death. For years pictures of empty rooms with a matress have been posted to claim that “this is what men want”. (Until next week, when we’ll post a picture of a gaming room full of expensive furniture and elaborate decorations and claim that THIS is what men want, actually, for real, I swear.)

        Well, for starters, a bed frame. Lamps for better lighting, an couple night stands, something to divide up the space a bit (assuming this is a studio), book shelves, some plants, some art on the walls, an area rug, table and chairs, and a couple couches and a coffee table, some kind of speaker system, some kind of storage system for any equipment I own for job and hobbies. I also like wooden desks.

        Like, the environment you spend time in has an impact on your mental state. Making that environment nice will make you feel better. The way your living space looks also says a lot about you. What this space says is “I literally do nothing but sleep and look at a computer screen”. Which is less “hell yeah” and more “this cyberpunk dystopia isnt as neon as I expected.”

        So if this is what you want, then follow your bliss I guess. But also, if you are having trouble dating… Look around you.
