    We are watching a family on food stamps with a carefully planned grocery list go shopping together like a family in a charming 90s movie and buy mainly whole foods in bulk and this is supposed to be bad? Aren't these people like model welfare recipients?

    do people have any idea how shipping works? <most> of the volume is industrial / commercial so they're dropping of dozens or hundreds or 1000s of packages at onces most of the hands that touch your package are doing so in bulk (truck to truck, truck to hub, hub to truck, etc)

    This story is 200-proof New York Times, the purest distilled form. Summary: a teacher quits to be a TikTok influencer because she inherited a 1200 sqft. rent-controlled apartment on the Upper West Side that rents for... $1300 The quotes here are gold. Straight into my veins

    this is perfect because this code won't run and if it did it would be an infinite loop

    Volunteering and helping people and participating in community is good - but by moving somewhere you have not committed some sin you have to first atone for Being a "native" does not excuse you from participating in community or volunteering merely by the accident of your birth

    Cities are for people! It is good when people move to cities! It is good to come to urban areas to do commerce, earn wages, study, produce and participate in culture, etc - your presence and participation in the conglomeration effects is a contribution to the urban fabric
