Yeah but factor in how many self righteous tweets and Facebook rants were sent during that time period. Can we quantify how much each one of those was worth? Maybe about $500 to $1000 each, perhaps next time we can just give the cash straight to them and they don’t have to pretend on the internet to be a better person than everyone else

It’s true tho. We need to apply the progressive stack to affordable apartments. Privileged people go last, should live farther away, and pay more in rent

Must be nice to have a landlord that doesn’t know what inflation is. I bet he still gives his grandkids a $5 bill in their birthday cards tho

Imagine the overall effect if we didn’t apply the law to violent felony arrests? The net drop would be so stupefyingly obvious it would be impossible to deny the law’s benefits. We should try it.
