The Green Room: Saturday Tweets: #FlyingLess, VHS Making a Comeback and Alanis Morissette Impressions

In the 1850s farmers in Hälsingland in Sweden built astounding neoclassical wooden palaces for themselves. The level of sophistication and the workmanship is unlike anything seen since. Seven remain today. This is a two-and-a-half story farmhouse for two families, ca. 1857. pic.twitter.com/a5B7J0aHX1
