realizations in order:
lotta pink
pretty big for a bathroom
why is the plunger in front of the door
why is the bathtub in front of the door
Is that a rug because it goes under the tub
push button toilet
What’s the issue with the push button on the toilet? Most toilets in my country are just a button to push on top?
Yeah it just looks like a standard dual-flush to me. Very common in the United States.
I mostly see these in public restrooms or airports, seeing one in someones house instead of a lever is kinda like seeing a steel toilet paper holder. It’s not incorrect but just struck me as out of place, definitely the most normal thing in this picture tho
I think this is because dual flush is more modern, so newer built buildings or ones that are often renovated like businesses or airports would have them. I’ve seen the dual flush top button on new residential builds because it wastes less water and therefore more economical.
You don’t get to be a superhero without defying public conventions… of porcelain placement and toilet flush preference.
Rug also goes under toilet, where the plumbing connects.
Ah, but maybe the toilet is just a prop to make her home look “normal” and she disperses her guano in another, more batlike way?
Bathtub also only has a curtain on one side, leaving the end open for water to splash everywhere, and for cold air to constantly creep in.
what the hell is a hroom
Ent pondering noise.
(I know, I get the joke, but still… HROOM)
Is that a door with a bolt latch partly behind the tub?!
My brother lived in an apartment in Chicago for a couple years. Apartments there are usually the whole floor on the thin but deep building. It took him almost a year before he noticed there was a full size door behind his refrigerator. He never bothered to figure out where it went as that was the edge of the building(external wall). So it was just weird. That apartment was full of stuff like that. It had another door that looked like it was from Willy Wonka(about 1/8 the size of normal). There was also an attic hatch. The typical drywall on a square frame section of trim. The issue was it was only like ~18” diagonal. He figured it was like an access panel to plumbing or something…but nope. Just went to the attic but you could really only stick your head through unless you were a child.
He had all sorts of interesting places. One had the old school elevators where you had to pull the grates down to close the shaft and elevator opening. You could just look up and see multiple floors above you. Had the slide lever for up/down instead of buttons.
And the tub + toilet going on top of a carpet?
If I remember right, this stoked accusations of AI art being used in DC backgrounds.
You remember wrong. It’s from 2016, long before AI art was a thing.
Yeah designers and illustrators have been using sloppy technical shortcuts since long before AI, speaking as a designer/illustrator
So AI slop before the AI. Wonder where AI learned to be bad from?
I get what you’re saying, but i want to remind people: AI doesnt learn! LLMs don’t think nor remember, it is only a fancy prediction model. It is more analogous to phone texting word prediction. It cant do anything remotely human-like.
Agreed, got trained would have been better. Learned can mean that, but implies a bit more than was meant.
They dont call it machine learning for nothing. The process it learned isnt too far off how biological neurons work, except instead of random chemical interactions… machine neurals use…math
Isn’t this post/screenshot from before the novelai leaks and stable diffusion hit it big? Wasnt that like October 2022?
I assume it is tile, but a bathroom that large would have a designer who wouldn’t have the tile pattern clip under the front of a toilet or the corner of a tub so it is terrible wither way.
Maybe it’s a Murphy tub?
Considering what we’re looking at, this is the most sensible explanation. WTF
Forgetting to drain it before it flipped up would be a nightmare
No, that’s the only way it drains all the way.¹
¹on paper. In reality it never goes up perfectly straight and you have to put it up, take it back down, mop out the last little bit, then put it back up, where the remaining damp absolutely will not air dry without a box fan running in the room.
I bet she’s whacked her shin on that thing so many times
Do not check where the carpet goes
I love your username.
My professors for the CS class on Parallelism and concurrency was making an analogy between different functions and lego bricks. At one point presenting a function and the associated lego brick, decorated with nice flames, he droped: “This lego brick turns out to be so good that it is litterally on fire”. I liked that.
That’s a sink plunger, not a toilet plunger.
TL;DR Batgirl occasionally tosses a brick
It’s a general purpose plunger, I have never seen the specialized toilet version irl.
I know what they look like which is why I wrote, I have never seen the specialized toilet version irl.
Huh. I’ve seen both, but never realized the sink one was for the sink, because it seems like everyone has that one for the toilet.
I always thought the sink plunger was for toilet and the toilet plunger was just a fancier plunger.
You’ve never seen a lot of tools. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist
I know what they look like which is why I specifically wrote, I have never seen the specialized toilet version irl.
Perhaps simply a painting, as it doesn’t seem to be casting a shadow. Translucent wand?
Once again, that is not the door.
Is Lemmy gonna redo all of the ancient reddit shitposts?
idk if that image is supposed to add context to back up your point but it sure does not
I see it now. It’s a color element in the wall, and the bolt lock on the door is actually a shelf for the shower! It makes so much sense now.
Looks to me like the “shelf” is a curtain rail on closer inspection, but why is it floating and what kind of interior designer has a random ass colour element like that
If it isn’t a door, then it’s a really weird paint job and a really stupid shower curtain in the foreground.
Can’t we all just agree this is a shitty panel? Even if the person defending it is correct in the artist’s intention, it’s shitty enough as a whole that the average person thinks this looks absurd.
What do you mean? Sure looks like a door with a bolt to me.
What is it?
Is that AI generated, or just oldschool terrible?
Being upset at that bathroom is not unreasonable.
Either this is inspired by a shitty bathroom the artist had lived with once, or they intended to make it a shower and they changed it to a tub last second, probably so they could add a bathing scene.
This is definitely a scene that could exist irl though.
- Apartment was built with a family layout and two entrances to the bathroom (this used to exist yes)
- Apartment was converted to a shared living thing
- Layout was remodeled and second entrance closed off because it now lead to a bedroom instead of living room or something
- Someone wanted a bathtub and there was no reason not to put it infront of the unused door
You’d still tile at least a little about e the tub, and not have just straight drywall.
If you can afford that yes :D
And the rug going under each fixture?
You’re assuming it’s a rug, but it could easily be a art deco tiled floor. That honestly was the least confusing part. I’ve lived in dozens of places that had similar floor patterns. One house I rented had bright pink tile in a similar pattern but it also went up half the wall doing the same thing.
Sure, but I don’t see even a hint of grout lines, and I’d expect to at least see a few of them.
If it’s marble it wouldn’t have large grout lines or tiles. I realize I didn’t say that in my earlier comment, although I meant to.
True. You’re right about that, but then you have a 20 something in, I’m assuming a city apartment bathroom, remodeled so a door is being blocked, with a pink tub and bath, and marble tile floor–and I remain skeptical. But you’re probably right, because anything else would just be absurd.
The more we talk the more I’m convinced the artist was drawing from a specific shitty apartment they had or knew about.
Did AI this bathroom?
This is pretty old so I don’t think so.
That bathroom is massive!
That’s no help when you can’t enter it.
It’s of huge help when you can’t leave.
I don’t see any visible hinges. That door swings out.
that’s gotta be $3500/mo just for it
Simple explanation: the bathtub is actually a mimic.
Who brushes their teeth with the bat cap on??
Sorry babe, the bat cap stays on during sex
Clearly Gotham landlords don’t give a shit lol.
I have seen the absolute ‘this semi-historic building was demolished a few years later’ bad landlords, and the bathroom situation wasn’t quite this bad.
Landlords in Burnside are known to cut corners.
It’s a curtain rod.
Is it? Cuz I’m looking at it there’s no curve. So if it is a curtain rod it’s one that doesn’t bring the curtain around to catch water shooting out of the shower. You see what I’m saying there’s no back to it?
Sure, it’s not well designed, but you can just see the rings of the curtain, even though the curtain itself doesn’t hang that far.
None of it is well thought out, but an effort was made nonetheless.
Not well designed? Lol. It’s like a car with no engine. It can’t achieve its primary purpose.
The green rectangle-shaped thing that starts at the floor and has a border framing it?
this is so shitty, that it has to have a rl counterpart. why would you draw that if you could not?
