You (collective) are here for me so much ^whether^ ^you^ ^want^ ^or^ ^not^, so I want to make sure you know I'm here for you too. If you have any vents and don't want to make a thread for them, I'm here. :3

Stupid petit bourgeois stuff, but I've been increasingly depressed about housing. My lease renewal is coming up for my apartment. Rent is going up another $80/mo, half my annual raise since the company I work for is doing poorly. It's up $500/mo in total since 2019. I really wanted to buy a house, but housing values literally doubled in my area. You can't get in the door under half a million now. There's no relief in sight and I'm just getting bled dry by ever increasing rents. I have no future here.
