O-kay. I can think of a myriad of other reasons than sheer cost why I might not want to buy a home straight away. But I see how the graphic kind of makes sense in the way you describe.
I’m not a big fan of landlords, by the way, and the instant downvoting for asking a simple question is extremely rude. Doesn’t exactly foster community engagement, guys! 😑
- Comment on Landlords are parasites 2 days ago:
Not sure what the graphic is trying to say. Are landlords supposed to protect people from increasing costs of home ownership? 🤔 How are these ideas connected?
Mind you, ownership implies that you are not renting your home, you own it.

Or just wishlist/buy Airborne Empire. I’m still waiting for it to come out of Early Access but the demo I played half a year ago was excellent.

Oh, but people are doing something, Elon. You’ve been lucky so far but we have noticed the violence you and your ilk are inflicting. Charlie and Brian are the writing on the wall.
Sadly, you are too stupid to change your wicked ways. But your time will come and your kingdom will fall. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

🤨 The sheer NUMBER of websites, you mean? Yeah, that is sometimes annoying.

Surely that was precisely what Viktor Shklovsky had in mind when he coined the term ostranenie. 🤡📯🥪🤡

This comes up a lot and I wish I could see some real life examples, because it’s not something I see a lot. So maybe it’s a cultural/perception issue.

I think it’s a reference to the Project Zomboid game.

I run 1440p capped at 75fps and cannot see a noticeable improvement with higher resolutions or framerates (my hardware is capable and I’ve tried).

Mine, too, and when he doesn’t I ask him to do it. Literally shaves ten years off my face.

- Comment on Some reasons, not all reasons. 3 months ago:
Our post office was closed for the entire day on Tuesday. No reasons given. Normally, about three to four people work there.
One customer scribbled something about Deutsche Post’s disdain for its customers on the notice. But I’m afraid we are going to have to get used to this kind of thing.

That’s because we get unmatched most of the time if we don’t steer the conversation this way. Then again, maybe most men who try this approach get unmatched as well; I’ve only ever tried writing friendly, interested messages.

Mr. Schubert? Is this you?
My first department head during my apprenticeship had a mug like that for his Coke Light. Takes me back a quarter of a century. Damn, I’m getting old.

Almost!
The economy is not made for living beings.
Life exists, and there is no will nor force that can make it compatible with “the economy”. Certainly not in all the ways that its deranged acolytes are calling for.
But the other way around? Let’s give it an honest try, shall we?
