This is my window. It has two layers of curtains. The inner one are long curtains, and they cover the radiator and the outer curtains to make the room less depressing.
The outer curtains (you can see one of them on the right) is a 100% black black-out curtain, that is off-white/grey on the outside and the darkest black on the inside. It keeps the sun out at daytime, and keeps any light from inside bleeding out at night. To a passer by down on the street, it looks like at nigh the person living here is asleep. At daytime, it looks as someone just has their curtains closed to no one can peek in.
I've put the black-out curtain to the side so I could take a HDR photo. But normally, the curtains are always closed and I never look out the window. I rely on webcams around my city, and other cities nearby to see how the weather is, and if the sun is up or down.
How about you anons?

Put foil on your windows try out darkmode irl and slowly develop far worse agoraphobia !!!

Even Hikikomori have to go out sometimes. Well, at least the ones who don't live with their parents... Some delivery went wrong or you need meds or stuff. Anon leaves his apartment about every two weeks.

Not a single photon gets through when shut. It's not in use most of the time, cause anon is too lethargic to walk 3 feet to reach the button. I might start using a broomstick or something similar as a remote...
Op here.

Haha, almost looks shopped.
I don't have any plants in my apartment. I once had a small cactus, but it died and ended up attracting flies.
>>2173
Can't. People would see this from outside, and start asking questions. I don't want to get bothered by anyone. Better hide in plain sight. As I explained in my opening post, the idea is that people think the person inside is either asleep or not at home, etc.
Also why do I bother checking the weather? Because I like to. I speend hours on windy.com just watching weather data, or watching webcams from all around the world. It feels like I'm almost omnipresent that way.

Rolläden are quite common where I live, but unfortunatelly, this house doesn't have them.

I'll take more pictures when I'm back home.
I'm in the hospital right now, for a condition I don't want to talk about rn.

And now this anon is gonna do that too now. Sounds comfy and just right for assburger me. Thanks, OP!

Been there, done that. Anon's green thumb developed when he was 35. "Gardening" is fun and way better than a pet. That plant feels like a bro. Anon lives like a plant too.
Sorry for the many posts, I'm using my phone to post and it's close to impossible to quote properly.
Op here.
I have acquired a kerosene lamp for 0 money.
I put Biodiesel in it, so it doesn't stink. It actually doubles as a little space heater, as he glass gets to about 300°C right where that bottleneck is.
Nice warm light without electricity, and it's even dimmable!
When I make the light really bright, it's perfecly fine for reading, too!
I live in a small, narrow room.
I open one side of the curtains and slightly turn the blinds a bit upwards, to let in enough light for me to be able to move around. I keep my door only a slight bit open, because I'm worried someone might stand in the doorway and see what I usually browse. I don't want anyone to know what I'm like at all, because people abuse those that they know well, and those that they think have no power.
I have a decent-sized room, but I keep two blankets over my window and now that i look at it I should really get one a bit more stylish or at least all black.

In the metaphorical sense I see our world as getting better slowly.
i have a small room and the walls are really thin. when i close and lock it most of the external sound is dimmed though. i have a window on my left, it faces the front of my house so i just see my neighbour's houses when i look at it. the blinds are not framed so some light goes through even when shut during the day. (i make use of natural lighting whenever possible)
My curtain is also a blackout below a long one, but unfortunately the rod is a bit forward causing light to come.

I have one of those metal sliding curtains. I don't know what they're called. I keep it very slightly open so light can get in.

I don't, my parents abused me and i live in a dungeon far far away from them, I have wageys to cater for me and get my parcels in the mail, I also get NEETbux because my mother got me a sperg diagnostic from a bunch of quacks so she could hide her abuse from the feds. Now she's depressed because I don't want to see her anymore. Fucking hypocrite!
