The reported DRS number moving as if it where just statistical background noise is one of the most suspect things I've last year.

It's mostly the thread splitting that really seems to work. Bake a new one at 250, and know that by posting in the old one, you will have less people engaging with you. Or post in the new one but then still having the old one sorta hanging there and feeling bad about that. It's really a pretty well thought out tactic. I'm going to say for myself that I'm finishing the old one before starting in the new one. I hope other anons join me in this sentiment, so we can keep on heyahoyaposting on a more regular basis

Yes, but in Europe. Housing is absolutely fucked here and we need to get afordable high densitiy (4 stories max) housing into the hands of the people themselves. I'd like to achieve this by way of setting up cooperative housing which is going to be some sort of rent-to-own structure (whereby the people that live in the appartment ultimately own it through their co-op) and an overarching cheap (preferably at cost) maintenance-for-hire department that services these cooperations. Gonna need some lobbying-money first though

Nah, this feels worse. Back in 2008 there used to be hope. You could still unironically think that things might get better for you in 2007. 2008 didn't immediately crush this hope. For me it took most of last decade to really get settled into the feeling that your general midwit would not be able to carve a comfortable living in the near future. That's what's perplexing me the most: how can this keep running if it very clearly is not going to matter to the general population that this machine is actually running? The incentives are gone. The inflation is definitely not done yet, and I hope better choices are being made than the last times this happened, but it very probably won' t get better.

This will mean that in the next 10 years, anyone who's in cash will lose big. This will be boomers that saved, not invested. Countries that still have a semblance of social support will be facing the choice to uphold or deny the promises that where made to that generation: work 40 years, then retire to comfortable life. Upholding this will mean plucking even more from the already bald chickens that are the following generations. Denying this will mean seeing our parents or their friends die in squalor. We haven't got the money to help them, and if governments don't help either (or have already cut back on any help they where promised or might need) then they will see legitimately hard times for probably the first time in their lives. When they go, money will siphon to generations that where probably already in the realm of generational wealth. This is already happening in the housing market. Asset-rich families will distribute this to their children. Those in families that aren't asset-rich will get farther and farther behind, barring any government or widely carried popular intervention.
