They’d probably tell you to move to a rural area where $150k will get you a mansion.

Where are these mythical inexpensive small houses? The older housing stock is in the urban core (with accompanying high land prices), and the newer stock is all enormous. No one builds small anymore, unless it fits on a trailer.
I remember a few years ago, I went to a company luncheon on Mercer Island in Seattle. I rode with my boss at the time and we drove by all these giant houses, real mansions and not the fake prefab kind. They were lovely, but all we could think of was how isolating they were, and how much time they would take to…
The further we get from the statistical blip that was America right after WWII and the “nuclear family,” the more desperate these clowns are to pretend that everything was ALWAYS THAT WAY UNTIL THEM GODLESS LIBRULS CAME.
Not only are suburbs and suburban housewives not a thing anymore, but I question if a majority even want them to be a thing anymore. The people voting for this dumb idea are men who want women to know their place and boomers sick of babysitting their grandchildren or watching their kids spend money on daycare. Maybe a…
Not that I have any personal knowledge, but from what I’ve read of life among the “masters of the universe,” they still hold to a pretty retro version of gender roles. A wife’s full time job is taking care of the kids and their social life and keeping herself fit and beautiful. Social occasions still feature men and…
“where are the poor and working class expected to live?”
“They want safety & are thrilled that I ended the long-running program where low-income housing would invade their neighborhood.”
Right? I compare it to negging. Now that we all know what it really is, can you call it subtle anymore? Lee Atwater was the one who let the cat out of the bag 40 years ago.
The reality is that the “suburban housewife” is Trump’s way of sending a subtle signal to racists who long for a return to a version of America that never existed outside of the film Pleasantville.
The problem is men discussing the fuckability of women as if women were inanimate objects marketed to consumers for the purpose of fucking, and the variable appearance of women is just the manufacturer catering to the variability of individual tastes, and thus it’s perfectly reasonable for a man to have a sniffy, “I’d…
After which a rail line of Hi-test Peruvian Flake the size and density of a major league base path was hoovered up enough with a speed to even make Tony Montana go “FOCK...dot’s a lotta yayo!”
It’s the only way I can believe these idiots think this shit flies....wired to the gills.
“For these reasons, the film has been called “the closest thing to porn” on the streaming service.”
I’m going to have to reread gilgamesh because I do not remember that part!
...and Stockholm Syndrome itself was invented by a male psychiatrist (Nils Bejerot) who never met the woman he labeled with the diagnosis (Kristin Enmark).
SPOILER ALERT
I immediately thought of ex machina and how I yelled with glee, despite myself, when Oscar Isaac (bless that hot assed man) got (SPOILER ALERT) stabbed
I can’t stop laughing about them writing a kidnapper stating that he would never do anything against his victim’s consent. I can only imagine the screenwriters high-fiving each other after that, thinking how they reflect the many deep layers of the guy.
At this “how to be gentle” line, I began singing aloud: “Tale as old as tiiiiime, true as it can beeeee, barely even friennnnds, then somebody bennnnnds, unnn-expec-ted-lyyyy.” It was the most enjoyment I got from watching this terrible, terrible film.
No to all of this. They adopted for the youtube ad revenue and then gave the child away when parenting became too much work. Fuck them.
