My sister has been saving for a house down payment for 6 years.
$500 a month. Every month. No exceptions.
She skipped vacations. Drove the same car for a decade. Packed lunch every single day.
Last month she finally hit $60,000.
She called me excited. Ready to start looking.
Then her realtor sent her the numbers.
Average home in her area: $520,000.
She needs $104,000 for 20% down to avoid PMI.
She's $44,000 short. After 6 years of sacrifice.
She asked me what she did wrong.
Nothing. She did everything right.
The finish line just moved faster than she could run.
She's 34. Single. No kids. Good job. Perfect credit.
And she's still not enough for a system that keeps adjusting the rules mid-game.
i love declining cookies. i love telling TSA agents i do not consent to having my photo taken. i love pretending i have any agency over the countless tiny ways i am surveilled every single moment of every single day
Mitch McConnell's team reached out to me earlier today — through an intermediary, of course — asking me to take this down.
I won't. I don't bend the knee.
And if they don't like having their name and face attached to it, maybe they should ask themselves why that is.
This person submitted a FOIA request to his City for HIS OWN LICENSE PLATE (Flock Data) and was DENIED due to "privacy concerns."
I REPEAT: When a man requested FLOCK FOOTAGE of HIS OWN CAR, the CITY claimed it was a PRIVACY VIOLATION and DENIED his request.
So Flock can SPY on you in a mass surveillance state but YOU cannot even see YOUR OWN data or surveillance footage of YOU YOURSELF.
Make it make sense.
this person is claiming to be pumping out 20 pieces of custom jewelry every single day of the year.
turns out they're just buying from shein and marking it up 5x.
or...what's more likely...they're the same factory, posing as a handmade seller.
idc if I sound too woke but the queen of bastards shit being used in these promos feels disgusting. it’s a title used to dehumanize rhaenyra and thrown around by misogynistic men & you’re using exactly that to promote your show. where’s this energy for that rapist ?
