Neurotypicals for some reason think the main light is ok to use.
There was an era in home building, decades ago, when overhead lighting in living rooms wasn't really a thing. They had table and floor lamps. That was good enough. Some fucker along the way thought he was being smart by adding an overhead light in the living room.
We need to find him and exact revenge.
That fucker must have lived in my house with his shitty ideas.
I have a plethora of overhead lighting options that just makes you go “fucking why, though????”. Seriously the place is ancient and used to have gas lamps and a coal chute, so all retrofit, most rooms have two light switch panels with 4-8 switches - the tiny bathroom has 8 switches on 3 panels ffs, but kitchen and living room have -5 panels each- for the overhead lights. Fucking absurd. (And don’t even ask about my breaker box.. absolute nightmare. Since stuff is wired into whatever they felt like, the master bedroom shorts out the kitchen 🫠)
I really want to get someone in to rewire.. remove all that crap.
My house was built in the 19th century. We have a shortage of closet space. I assume that clothing was much more expensive back in the day so they had less of it.
This is the correct answer.
