You think metricon, McDonald Jones, Mojo, Clarendon, Coral, dont use retarded wog concreters, turban heads cablers, illegal chinese gypies and irish plumbers to build these shite homes on the cheap?
Housing quality has really taken a dive in the last 10 years.
Rents are rising in the states as well. I've got a friend who rents, and she received a notice on her door last week that effective for her lease renewing in two months, her rent was jumping almost $300/mo. I don't know anything about rent laws, but I thought this was absurd.
I can recall college apartments and those bastard companies. They'd normally raise rent by a smaller margin every year. $100 was the most I recall experiencing.
Her rent is going from just over $600/mo to $900. I told her she'd be financially better off getting a house at that point, but unfortunately, the truth is she wouldn't. She doesn't have the credit for a loan, and she's living hand to mouth as it is. She couldn't possibly afford the extras that go with home ownership.

They'll take the tax money from her low income job, and use it to subsidize the rent of foreigners they bring in to replace her and everyone else.
I bought the boat I am aboard right now, with a pseudo Australian name, just to sail there, under the mistaken idea that freedom could be found there... and also moreover to impress a father in law who was still alive there to impress him... but that is a separate story, I suppose...
He died, and a bunch of my dreams died with him. Time will tell if they ever recover, but clown world is pretty dream killing...
But these new dreams seem so devoid of fruition; so impossible to contribute a positive influence upon. Where once it felt so immediate, so within grasp, all of this is nebulous, and seemingly far fetched.
How can I hope to help achieve this new dream? How can we even express it, without falling prey to ever present feds? It feels outrageously hopeless. I know that it must feel this way for untold masses before anything has any chance of changing, so we're only in the beginning stages. But how much more can our livers withstand in the meantime?
Whatever. Nonetheless, I drink to that. Being half injun, half Irish, it is a moral imperiative. Perhaps an immoral imperative. And still...

I know it can seem like nothing ever changes. And you sound like you're a bit alone in your feelings, but you're not. What you need is someone that can help you understand what you're going through. You might consider finding a partner, not a romantic partner, but an idealogical partner. Someone who shares the same opinions with you, who understands what the world is becoming. You'd have much better luck in getting to an understanding that you are not alone, and that all of us are in this shit together. It can feel like you have no control over the world, or what happens, but understand even when it seems like we're losing battles, you have in you the ability to choose how you react, and the time is ripe to start deciding whether to take your chances with speaking your mind, to analyze and think about who you are gonna become from this grief that occupies so many of us. You could let it kill you, consume you wholly in some addiction, or outburst, or you might stop and could consider, that your old life is over and its not coming back.
I'd say, if you're looking for direction, or maybe not sure where to go from here, you should ask yourself, might I be better applying myself to new dreams? To changing things that are within my power to change? That if there is any chance of dreaming new dreams, of changing the situation that lead here, we must all ask, what can I contribute to making that happen? It might enable you to find new things to dream, and accomplish.
Often grief and calamity snatches from us our dreams, and makes of us warriors. You lose your fear before others realize you've lost your fear.
Grief is a weapon. It is a disciplinary. It will train you up, tear you to pieces, and if you let it, make you new again, better than before. And no fed can snatch that dream, no chance or fate can take that sense of control from you, the imperitive to reorient the world, and think about and gain or attain a clarity of life and purpose. It'll change you profoundly when you find it.
Understand, you have these feelings in you, these moral outrages over what happened, which shouldn't have happened, and that you need to express it, or it can and will destroy you.
I know it can seem like nothing ever changes. That everything is chance, and circumstance.
I guess you'll just have to think about it, and roll the dice.

It's so you don't have this very option.

Most of us lost someone because of the bullshit lockdowns.
It is not too late to dream new dreams.
For example, some people dream of guillotines.
