Like holy shit what is wrong with the world. Everywhere is too dark, or too expensive, or too remote, or decrepit as hell. Doesn't help that my mom's credit score is in the garbage thanks to years of scraping by as a single parent, so while I'm lucky to have a fairly high one we're immediately disqualified from many places even though she can show regular deposits in her bank account.
As a result we might be stuck paying for a prohibitively expensive PMC radlib short term lease digital nomad unit in the middle of nowhere. God damn America, god damn commodified housing, god damn the credit system, damn it all
Luckily where I live it's not quite that bad, but it's getting there. My sister has a similarly sized studio apt and was paying like 1200 because she got it in the heyday of the pandemic, now she's renewed for something like 1500
Plus every place charges you like $50 a month for unassigned parking, it’s such bullshit
