my parents were born in 1953 & 1954.

i was born in 1984. single income household, father is blue collar worker, mother is housewife.

when i was born, we lived in a big, two-story, full-size single family home in a high cost of living area.

when i was 3 years old (1987), my parents decided they wanted another house, so they bought one and we moved to an even higher cost of living area. they didnt sell the first house to afford a new one, they just bought another one and we had two houses.

what the fuck happened.

also, Elon’s dog.

my ignorance is showing… what is RT?

i like the happy vacuum. <3

it has always been so weird to me that national public media isnt 100% funded by the government. i honestly didnt realize that the funding was this low, but i figured it would be at least in the 10’s of percents :(
