i loved the parts where it felt like we were examining all of our social norms and skipping the ones that were dumb and pointless. but now everything has to be just as dumb and shitty as before for no reason [no social safety net allowed, WFH bad, etc]
There absolutely are reasons. They just aren't reasons you agree with.
The oncoming commercial real estate collapse is a big one. You just don't give a dick about it. And neither does anyone here.
I've been priced out of real estate, why the fuck should I care?
Real estate is a rich people problem now and I hope they're having a fucking crisis.
Yeah, that's prime schadenfreude for me personally.
Nobody with a brain gives a shit about it, because it SHOULD happen. Land isn't a commodity to hold and rent, even the fathers of capitalism thought so.
Just as I thought I was out of having to shake the hands of twenty people when arriving at a family party, they PULL ME BACK IN! Some of them literally!
