  I do not understand how some people live without curtains, blinds or privacy film over their windows.

  Living in your home while on full display to anyone watching, is insanity and an open invitation to stalkers and creeps.

    I have curtains and use them mainly for climate control.
    If someone wanna watch me do the dishes that’s on them 🤷

  Wonder if they know they’ve got a potential bro one floor away.

    they won’t get along. one has the next room in darkness, and the other in harsh white light.

    it could never work.

      That could be the neighboring unit. There’s still a chance

      Bananas are neither of those things, so I guess fair enough.

  Little off topic, but I remember my college roommate and I watching a TV ad around '91 or so, “Oh no! Ground beef again? What will I tell my husband!?” We. Were. Screaming.

  “Fuck you bitch! We’re on our last can of boiled carrots and frying flour in the last of our oil and topping it with the last of our ketchup!” We were picking pecans off the roof and frying them in the last of our butter and seasoning salt. (A fine meal!) We were scheming on swiping a duck while we picked black walnuts at the campus pond. I’d get dressed nicely and shoplift our Sunday meals.

  Kids today: We. Are. Literally. Dying. McDonald’s is SO expensive!

  It’s not that we olds think you deserve to suffer because we did, but… we did… Kinda hard to entertain modern complaints.

  Don’t start me on rent though. That place was the attic of a 107-yo house that was literally tilting over, held together by wires in the basement. Landlord was not a smart man to begin with, utterly senile by the time we met him. As in, worse that Trump senile. Not even trying to be funny. Still, $250/mo.

  $600 in 2025 money, exactly our Habitat for Humanity mortgage today. Please fucking call Habitat and merely ask when the next meeting is! It’s almost certainly not what you think. One phone call changed my life.

  This will piss you off. I got turned down for a lease in the 90s because landlords wanted you to take home 3-4x the rent. If you couldn’t make rent in 7-11 days, you were a poor risk.

    You live in subsided housing and are shitting on younger people complaining about how difficult it for them? That’s ripe enough to smell from here.

    • Saapas@piefed.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      If someone complains about how they can’t afford to eat because McDonald’s is so expensive then yeah that’s worth of shitting on lol

    • shalafi@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Subsidised? Don’t think you know what Habit for Humanity does.

      Anyway, I’m not baggin’ on young people for rent ills. Were you able to read, I’m saying they should be extra pissed off.

    I mean, I’m sad you had to live like that, but that doesn’t mean young people shouldn’t complain either. It’s insane that in the west in the 1990s, let alone in 2025, anyone would be forced to live like that. We have the resources to do better than that, and many countries do, but the US is a broken economic system since the Reagan era.

    I’m not sure the McDonald’s complaints are really about McDonald’s as opposed to a clear example of inflation. Unless you’re talking about something I haven’t heard.
