It's literal rather than representative

Damn I've got to rewatch that special. Bo was woke.
If money can buy you power in the apocalypse, then they would rather live as rich fucks in a fallen might-makes-right cinderpile, rather than pump the breaks slightly on their insane lifestyle so that we could all have a future worth living in.
Sorry about the way I type
Forgetting is second only to acceptance, yeah. Left to my own devices I'll just fixate on the past, replaying the scenes and emotions over and over like that one Black Mirror episode.
I wish I didn't spend so much of my time in the past.

Ah yes, I could see that situation arising, although frankly I'm as surprised to hear of landlords competing for tenants as I would be to hear of them selling their properties for under market value. Not that I'm doubting your honesty--it's just not been my personal experience.
I've heard too many personal anecdotes of landlords trying to hike up rates by seeking spurious evictions, or refusing to install climate control, for tenants who are getting a "good deal" at lower rates. Maybe there are rational markets out there, but I don't personally hold out much hope for landlords to be reasonable in the face of the dual pressures of fear and greed.
For anyone out of the loop (from the AP / quoted in the article) :
Why are people protesting in Nepal?
The demonstrations—called the protest of Gen Z—began after the government blocked platforms, including Facebook, X and YouTube, saying the companies had failed to register and submit to government oversight.
But they spiraled to reflect broader discontent about a lack of opportunities and corruption.
In particular, many young people are angry that the children of political leaders—so-called Nepo Kids—seem to enjoy luxury lifestyles and numerous advantages while most youth struggle to find work.
It's a miracle 😭
Oh my you win today
Yeah that's the vagaries of the housing market and valuation, which is why I said equivalent property.
There's also no reason you couldn't sell that house for 400k less. The value is just the value. It's going to be the same whether you're renting or paying the bank for the same property.
I also won big by buying prepan, but who's up or down in the Canadian housing lotto doesn't change the physics of paying a lord's mortgage costing more than if you were paying the bank's mortgage directly.
Nevermind that whoever gets to be lord keeps the equity.
Thanks, that is genuinely nice to hear. Was there any particular type of meditation that worked for you?
