What for? You can sit on the floor, you can put your things on the floor, wait you can eat on the floor too? Great!
I see no game console, so I can't say this is true. There's also like a few cans of any beverage and a few cups of noodles missing from this picture.
Under capitalism, yes.
Under socialism? Men would all be spending their new free time learning woodworking and making gigantic overengineered furniture out of oak and mahogany.
I had a mattress that I had directly on a cement floor in a basement. That was an expensive mistake. The mattress retained moisture because it couldn't breath, contributing to it collapsing. A basic bed frame is cheap, makes the room look nicer, and provides extra storage space underneath.
I've been having some fun with my current setup. I have a bed, nightstand, desk, dresser, and closet in one room. It's maybe a little cozy, but functional as long as I put some thought into it. I even have a nice space in the middle that I can pretend I use to work out in.
I think the idealization of this kind of spartan living space is basically the same as the cryptobro idealization of unregulated currency.
Over time exposure to reality will result in making compromise after compromise to solve each problem that arises until you have reinvented from first principles the very same standards that everyone else in society already arrived at.
I get where you're coming from, especially when it's something like OP's post where it's just a bed and some junk. But there's a difference between spartan and efficient. A spartan setup doesn't provide much functionality beyond the basics (sleep, clothing). An efficient setup might take reworking, but it squeezes a multitude of uses into a small to medium sized room.
Sone would say these occasional fruitless détours are healthy
except that logic is tacitly pro-status quo
Crypto isn't bad because it's different and socially divergent, but because it's stupid. It promises to achieve "freedom" but this is only possible for those who are already rich and safe enough to afford buying crypto.
If you compare it with utopian socialism, it has all the same problems PLUS that, so it's objectively inferior. It has all the same problems of "how do we achieve this/bring it about", because rich banks can buy crypto too
Their actual position is "we need to uplift the petit bourg (cryptobros) and not the poor, but also not the people who are richer than me (banks, billionaires)" which means they have no position other than selfishness
Yes, there are clear advantages to bed above floor technology
Once, I used a bunch of plastic storage bins as a bedframe. Properly elevated bed, plus a lot of storage.
I'd immediately go for the minimalist apartment. A floor bed that I can roll up, a table and chairs I can stash, just a big open space with dozens more plants and my gun.
Look at this fatcat using a water bottle! You can drink perfectly fine water from the tap. Don't even need a cup if you put your palms together.
Literally my apartment when I was making 6 figures. Women be like “I don’t date poor dudes”. I’m like “lol just because I don’t blow my entire paycheck on Barre, Whole Foods, and shitty brand new apartment with paper thin walls doesn’t make me poor”
You're just making me more convinced that "women" were invented by furniture companies to sell more bedframes.
