Its the era of Slop. Everything is slop. The food we eat, water we drink, the clothes we wear. Enshitified, Slopified, and all at the low price of Expensive.

We turned away from the light when we invented a way to go online without the computer screaming in warning.

The numbers are staggering:

Rent is now unaffordable for a record *half* of U.S. renters.

Some 30 million jobs pay less than $15 an hour. The average wage needed to afford a one-bedroom apartment has climbed to $28.17 β€” nearly four times the federal minimum wage, which hasn't gone up in 16 years.

Nearly eight years ago, when I began reporting on the "working homeless," it was treated as an edge case, a tragedy at the margins.

That fiction has collapsed.

Housing insecurity is now an ever-widening sinkhole, swallowing not only the poor and working class but entire swaths of the middle class.

wine moms are our strongest soldiers and also the engine of American consumption and you alienate them from your stores at your peril

But at least he gets a shot at something πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

I'm sad about it, but glad he still gets to play

Exactly. Maybe things will pick up once the WBC starts

I think everyone might be a bit overwhelmed and online a little less? Or it's just the lull before baseball comes back. Possibly a secret third thing that escapes me at the moment πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

03.03.2026 07:18 πŸ‘ 5 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

Agreed on both counts

Roast chicken legs and buttered egg noodles, possibly some kind of veg

Could be. I hope for his sake he takes to the treatment well and can thrive despite the diagnosis

If you wouldn’t serve it to a guest in your home, don’t donate it! People experiencing food insecurity have taste. They aren’t like molecularly different from you; they’re you with less luck.

I would love him to stay for one more year to see if they can repeat, but I totally understand if he's not up for it. No matter what he decides tho we'll all be grateful af for the time he did give us

I am also very excited about that! Not sure any of us are gonna live long enough to see the West Seattle or Ballard lines tho... but hope springs eternal I suppose πŸ˜…

That, not wanting to hurt my hubby, and the fact that my favorite book series is still ongoing is sometimes all that keeps me going. But whatever works, right πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
