A friend of mine had to sit through getting suspended high on mushrooms once.

I didn't go to a good high school lol

People really don’t understand what mental health even means still. Like the idea that if you struggle with anxiety/depression etc. you shouldn’t go out and try to enjoy your life is literally insane

Probably. Pluses and minuses to each area. Depends what is important to you.

Considering I own one yeah. I also don't live in Cali anymore. You know you point isn't mute or anything but you could phrase it better to come off a little less condescending. Don't phrase your points in a question you are then gonna answer with no input back.

Ok, swing away.

Those private preacher jets aren't going to pay for themselves.

It can be done but it’s not going to be like living on $120k in Omaha. Still probably better than living in Omaha tho.

...next we will find a mutant rat in Ballymun and so will begin a new age of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

She was dying of hypothermia and dehydration, but they saved her, so now she’s not dying

I’ll bet her sister doesn’t have an article written about her that went viral.

Got yer uplifting comment thread right here.

Breathe oxygen long enough and it's fatal.

What happened to Chloe?

Nothing uplifting about this. Janitor shouldn’t have to come out of retirement in the first place. This country is fucked.

Good job he brought his own accommodation cause the price of rent here is bananas.

There is no such thing as a dying man, we're alive 'til the moment we are dead And a drowning man is just a living man who hasn't run out of his last bit of breath.

You replied in the wrong place lol.

This is so confusing.

those are awesome.

Right, your living my exact same life almost. If I get a worse paying job and move to SF, I’d qualify for a below market rate condo or section 8 and be fine. I’ve honestly considered it but the BMR stuff in SF is a dumpster fire. I was living in LA, and as you say, paying tax and high rent so my neighbors could live cheaply.

A big draw of SF are the amenities. If you didn’t have rent control, section 8, and BMR, low income people would leave. That would mean fewer restaurants, fewer bars, clubs, cultural events, etc making it less attractive and more people would leave. Eventually, the city would find its balance between people, wages and business. The way we do it now, we create these imbalances where the rich get cheap labor, the poor get stuck and everyone else gets fucked. If we just let the free market work, we wouldn’t be in such a mess.

It's really good at breaking down how the Inflation Reduction Act works.

How has the government failed in this situation? Individuals are responsible for saving for their retirement. And we know very little of this person's situation other than his rent was increased.
