With the bills proposed by the house right now federal workers won't have great benefits for long. Benefits are better on the county level in many cases already.

Maybe they will leave oligarch owned social media next.
The secret level from toe jam and big earl.
I feel like smartphones + internet peaked about 10 years ago and has now steadily become enshittified. I have never used "google assistant" because it takes less time to just type something in to my phone or tap the setup for my alarm.
So yes, definitely feel that way. Consumer tech had less bullshit masking as improvements ten years ago.
I've had to rent out rooms and the basement of my home as a "landlord" and I lowered the rent on people in stead of raising it because they were giving me enough to cover part of my mortgage. It still felt shitty and exploitative to do. Especially if something broke and they had to wait to say, use the toilet.
I'd never want to do that again if possible. Also my "tenants" were not people or friends I knew beforehand. I just tried not to be a piece of shit about it.
When I see "real estate experts" gouging people to buy more real estate and bragging on social media about it - I do think they are, in fact, fucking parasites on people that do actually contribute to society. It doesn't have to be this way. Housing should not be a commodity.
