Another one. On the way to work I pass a tiny houselet -- about the size of one floor of my own place -- that used to be a fortune teller's soothsaying outlet. That closed down and now, instead of a FOR SALE sign or the earlier fortune teller's signage, it just says this:
"$295,900"
I can't grasp how they could possibly be selling that itty-bitty place for that kind of money, even now.

There's a new warning in the parking lot at the post office. There are two of those square grids in the lot covering storm drains, and newly spray-painted over each one is this legend:
WARNING CONFINED SPACE DO NOT OCCUPY
One rather wonders who tried to stuff themselves down there and what kind of emergency crew had to fish them out...

Wow! That bodes well if you ever decide to sell your place, I imagine.
Even my digs are worth about $65K more since I've lived here.

Except I would have to buy a new place for even more than I get for my old one and potentially live for months in a motel room until I can bid high enough to snap up a place. So profoundly not worth it

House next door to the one we're renting just sold for $450K. Works out to over $400/square foot. Madness.

It's even more headscratchy to me now that I've heard it's Zillow driving prices up by robo-bidding so high that they wind up owning whole neighborhoods. SKYNET OWNS YOUR HOUSE!

My supervisor was counting up all our training hours for the fiscal year -- every member of my team is required to get 24 hours/year specific to children's treatment -- and she told me I somehow had A HUNDRED AND SEVEN. Not sure how that's possible.

I was behind a Volkswagen today with a bumper sticker that consisted of an upside-down peace symbol with Jesus nailed to the two diagonal struts like the cross. It read "REAL PEACE"(?).

I thought the previous flag I posted was a head-scratcher, but this...

I've been covering my black & white bicycle with black & white stickers for a long while now. One of the earliest ones I ever added says LOVE MUSIC/HATE FASCISM that I'd received from a pen pal in the mail. You know, I genuinely felt some concern for a few months there, just due to that sticker. The rubes here were spreading rumors of busloads of Antifa coming to their neighborhoods and other scarily stupid shit.

I'm 100% sure they don't know the connection between fascism and Antifa.

I'm showing a little love for N.O. Bonzo --they're an anarchist artist who's done some murals/sticker work for Portland Antifa, I think. nobonzo.com/

I was just at the store and once inside, I got knocked back when I passed close to someone with really bad breath. In the next aisle it happened again. And then, with yet another shopper, the same thing. It dawned on me that all the air inside the Brighton Meijer's smelled like someone who really, really needs a toothbrush.

The last time I drove past this place I noticed the price had dropped. They're now asking only $292,300. SMH

I got a letter from the new mgt company at the complex, informing me that I am $1,250 ahead on my monthly dues. They asked me to reduce my next payment by this amount.
Now how am I supposed to do that? My payment is $250 per month. I should maybe go in with a Glock and rob them?
