rent goes down $500

omg rent is so cheap now!!!

[-] Parzivus@hexbear.net 74 points 10 months ago

It's not even that it went back down, it just stopped rising. Rent isn't any cheaper that it was last year

Mine didn't stop rising

i had some items in my amazon cart. they've just been sitting there for weeks now because i'm avoiding buying from amazon for awhile. $16 total.

black friday came and the original $16 price tag is now a BLACK FRIDAY DEAL -24% at $16 ONLY FOR PRIME MEMBERS!

i ignored it. on monday the original $16 then turned into a CYBER MONDAY DEAL -24% at $16.

legit just checked. all the "deals" are now over. it's still $16...

Lotta digital stores do this

Amazon in particular are notorious for price jacking during/near holiday sales to put items on 'sale'

“Just get a raise to catch up, if you can’t then that’s your own problem.”

But don't everyone do it at once, or we'll have inflation again and I'll have to raise your rent.

It's almost like capitalism requires a vast exploited underclass to function.

wowee

I would fight someone for 1000 dollar rent

[-] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 17 points 10 months ago

I think their example means the rent goes up by $1000.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
