Imagine everything we do is because of money...

and while 'work' can be seen as "keeping #busy", the whole point of #money and #banks is to make you work (for them). Hmm.

So it all becomes a bit meaningless if I / us all do whatever we can just to pay #rent. Whatever it takes to get money putting #living & #morals waaaaaay down the #list each month.

#Parents might realise feeding #children in the same "#system of a down" (#cheating #maths / #debt-increase) isn't going to get better. Right? 👶

Shout-out to the Cambridge, MA community.

I'm beginning an apartment search for a three-person household. Any leads in or around MIT would mean a lot.

Boosts and local knowledge both very welcome !

My friend is disabled and cannot find work, and despite just getting out of surgery a week ago, is not receiving any help from their landlady with rent, and now it's overdue. They *need* $1200 for the monthly rent, *badly*!

Why doesn't CPI seem to capture the affordability crisis?

"From 1967 to 2022, the cost of basic necessities—#groceries, #rent, #healthcare, #transportation, #childcare—increased 35% faster than everything else."

* "groceries shot up by 23.6% from 2020 to 2024."
*" Rent is at an all-time high, with 50% of renters spending more than third of their income on housing."
