i was investigating 'innovative, truly social' media group https://reported.ly/ (both to get some ideas on how they work that can be copied and understand where they fit... very progressive alqaida boosters, you know the kind); and found this interesting video they 'produced' on this gay google earth

Saudi Arabia was the above with the added benefit of the mutawiun stalking you on the daily, in an attempt to catch you performing sorcery. I, of course, kept my wand and spell books hidden on the eighth lock in Moody's trunk. Makkah and Madinah were nice though.

Other than the heat, and switching out some of the nationalities of the underclass, that could all be written word for word about London, too.

Being able to gracefully pivot to living in your car during periods of economically-mandated transience is "coveted lifestyle on social media"

Those people spent over 20 grand buying and retrofitting the car though, and balked on a 2,200 lease. I fucking hate how expensive this city is, but most people I know cannot pull off 1100$ rent neither buy a 20g vehicle.

Sorry not sorry that I don't have sympathy for the photogenic bohemian 'chaiwalas'

Like I'm suspicous of the media spinning the worsening first world standard of living as 'lifestyle choices', but for this couple it seems pretty voluntary.

maybe they should have just built like 300 identical crap castles instead of 732. unless this was intended from the start to be a the producers-style real estate hustle

the whole point of those homes is to entrap the type of people that would want to live in them and then blow them up, correct? i'm not saying it's right but it would be effective.

one of the effort posts i'd love to write but definitely never will is about how much of middle class retirement/estate planning is, at least in its idealized form, less about saving up money that you will then spend than it is about accumulating capital to the point where you can spend your golden years living off its rents (and obviously home ownership is a linchpin of that)

like, the idealized neoliberal order is that you have a small minority of superrich who are bourgeoisie throughout their lives because, of course, they deserve it, but all other class demarcation is done in terms of life segments instead of population groups: prole for most of your life, bourgeoisie for the last part--a new answer to the perennial question of American liberalism "how do we prevent the proletariat from gaining class consciousness and uniting," traditionally answered by white supremacy

There's this whole movement of labor aristocrats into 'financial independence' I.e. achieving class ascension as quickly as possible. The idea is you work super hard, save and invest so you can do exactly that, live of rents during your later years. It's funny how they frame it in this 'we've figured out the game' type way. They sneer at the suckers who don't have the gumption to 'build equity'. It's an extremely bizarre form of class consciousness where they recognize that the key to freedom lies in escaping the proletariat, but achieving it as an individual family unit is the dream.
