I heard North Korea is great. Immigration progress? Lol, don’t be silly. Just hop their border, you’re only looking for a better life and going through an application process is just absolutely oppressive and racist.

Every ‘fun’ chapter is just about you sitting down for dinner

I just wanted to let you know, you posted this twice and I downvoted both of them.

Congratulations! You have received the ultimate sass award!

I’m with you

Exactly

I mean… this pretty much sums up most lemmy users anyway

🤣

Wallowing in my own filth

Like o em g girl me too lol I wanna piss my pants I’m a celebrity now 🙌

Yea. It’s rough out there for everyone. A friend of mine is paying 1700 a month for a 2b in California. Dude, I’d be homeless. There’s no way I could afford to pay that every month.

There’s also an app called Flex

They pay a portion of your rent every month so you don’t get behind. They split it up

What state are you in?

I appreciate that thank you. I am. My apartment is fine, but I also don’t have a shit ton of the upgrades that they’ve been doing to other apartments. That’s another reason it’s low. I actually need to re new my lease, they left a note on my door yesterday

So, some guy eating pizza at his sister quinceanera told you to bust out your phone and make a Lemmy account and post this stupid question?

I take one check and put it away, then next pay cycle I take a portion of that to add to the first chunk in my savings and then use all of that to pay my rent at the end of the month. I don’t spend any of my first check because that needs to be the majority of my rent while my second check I only need to pull 250 from

I’m down if you’re down

Honestly, this is just a random ass question to generate discussion like if that were to even happen.

It’s not like, something I’m 'advocating ’ for…

I think you need some chamomile tea

I pay 800 and no. I’m not sending apartment listing I’m my area are you crazy lol

K my bad

Totally fucking agree and thank you for being so level headed. It’s true, when you have the time and a savings (USE A DAM NUMBER THAT YOU CONSIDER TO BE A LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY ACCORDING TO YOUR SITUATION THAT WOULD HELP YOU WHILE UNEMPLOYED FUCK)

You do have the flexibility financially and for the betterment of your career, to walk away from jobs that are toxic, low paying and have no career growth.

You’re not rushed to just take anything keeping you in a vicious cycle.

I wish that everyone could have that. :( I hate how things are

True dat
