    I used to rent an ok place in Ohio (not a major city) for <$600, had a one bedroom to myself. I couldn't drink the water but otherwise I didn't have any issues. In a cheaper major city (certainly not NYC or SF) it's doable but you'll have roommates, not enough bathrooms, and possibly not enough bedrooms.

          it is, unironically, a caricature of itself.

          any completely nonsensical excess of late stage capitalism you could imagine is without fail a feature-not-a-bug of the way the country is run. yet the realities of it are constantly evolving to be ever more grotesque.

          it truly boggles the mind.

          :amerikkka:

          such a waste of a beautiful landscape tho, for real
