It must be nice to be so rich that it literally doesn’t matter what political policies are in place.

$700k in SF would get you a shitty studio. It’s ridiculous.

It really depends on the area of the country you’re in. I live in Pittsburgh, where 700,000 would get you a mansion. San Francisco or NYC? Maybe a reasonably nice apartment

We just gave up on Sydney and are building three hours away just so we can rent it out in three years and use the equilty to move back.

I didn’t know it was fake in this specific way but it suddenly makes so much sense that people seldom choose the best house. I thought everyone on the show just had severely misguided priorities.

I live in Melbourne, Australia where the median house price is $740,000 so I’m constantly screaming “HOW IS THAT MANSION ONLY $200k!!! Australia is bullshit!!” at the tv.

The Countess

My child made this costume via bits and pieces from goodwill. concept came from this album cover (in the aeroplane over the sea:)

My son is going as Eleven.

My kid was Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer last week for a Boo at the Zoo thingie. You know, like you do. For trick or treating she’s going to be a witch, which will also be adorable but which will not be nearly as funny.

Welp, here’s my baby as Rosie the Riveter again. Spit bubbles and all!

My bf and I. Boozy babies

By popular demand, Nasty Woman and Bad Hombre. We ended up not going quite as balls out as planned because we didn’t have plans until the last minute, and my logos looked more ‘amateur sports league’ than ‘superhero’, but it was still super fun.
