The New York Times said that this is the building that showed that brutalism could be "playful.". 'This may be true, but only in the sense that the cat tormenting a mouse, or the torturer doing “eeny-meeny” to determine which testicle to zap first, is being “playful.”'.

Making it harder for children to fall out of windows is quite sensible. And costs very little.

Building regulations have existed for centuries. They save lives. A decent architect or builder should be able to work with them.

UK planning rules are insanely bureaucratic about things people *don't* want. Visited a new build today. In the *same room* one window has don't-jump-out bars (whyyyy) but the other doesn't, due to random building regs madness. (1/2)

If the senseless slaughter of civilians in Dresden is “common sense”, we are in a very dark place indeed. (And, in fact, it didn’t help to defeat the Nazis and it was condemned at the time).
