You lot all spent your twenties railing against the outdated and unsustainable lifestyles of our parents but now as soon as you sign a pre-nup suddenly you want to go and do the exact same fucking thing.

Leftists are not immune to boomer brainworms I guess. :deeper-sadness:

    Before WW2 and before private homeownership got big, it was really common in US cities for whole extended families, even whole communities, to live in the same apartment building. One person would be the de jure landlord but everyone would be a de facto part-owner of the building. That's how my grandparents grew up. I hope that's something that makes a comeback for millenials, zoomers and their kids.

      Yeah let's bring this back.

      Also let's make it a green-roofed apartment building with strawbale insulation and lime plaster, and a couple shared rooms. Plus shared cars.

      Super high density but no worries about parking or noise, more yard space on the roof.

      All we'd have to do is fight the code enforcement people.
