I get avocados for $1 a piece at Costco, usually 5 for $5 in a bag
ripen them all at once, scoop them, mash them, then freeze them in the little snack size Ziploc bags, that's enough avo for 3 or 4 days worth of toast
then I just defrost them and go through them one at a time
$5 for over 2 weeks worth of avocado toast

Not OP, but shit adds up. Example: a former employee of mine kept begging for a pay raise. Her job performance was sub par and she was always late so she didn't, IMO, deserve one but she was so bad that she needed to be sacked, either.
Anyway, since I'm the one who signed her cheques, I know exactly how much she took home. She spent $15-$20 daily on coffee and lunch, so let's average that to $17.50. That amount × 5 days per week × 50 work weeks per year = $4375. Bringing coffee and lunch from home could have saved her $3500 annually, which is over double the raise she asked for. If her job performance were on the level, I wouldn't have bothered calculating how much money she wastes, but there you have it. Shit adds up.

I didn't say it to her. I just noticed her spending after she insisted on 'needing' the pay raise. Instead, I gave her a flat out 'no.' When she persisted, I explained that her work record was poor and that her constant lateness didn't inspire confidence but were I to see a change in these behaviours, we might discuss pay raises at a later time.

I started to notice her spending habits soon after, figuring she doesn't really 'need' a pay raise. All she needed was to live within her means.

I mean, maybe it's that, or maybe the neolibs and neocons opened the floodgates to global capital pouring in (and laundering money for mafiosos in the process) and crowded out local buyers. The global rich want to restrict supply because it inflates the value of their real estate holdings.

I put sriracha on anything I can get away with, I've been addicted to the stuff for years.. Eggs for breakfast, can of beans or can of 'dines for a snack, any delivery, and most anything you'd cook for dinner. Salad? Sriracha is a 0 calorie salad dressing. If it's not sweet, I'll probably put some sriracha on it. (yes I know Sriracha is sweet itself, however I don't frost cakes with it) The stuff tends to lose flavor over time, I go through bottles fast enough mine do not.

If I had a purse I'd carry a bottle around with me.

eh, kind of. Real estate is more valuable though if you can actually use it to build stuff on and collect rent. You cannot collect rent from an empty lot, and you can collect a lot less rent from a single family home than a large apartment building. The fact is that all of the cities with the biggest housing crises have been long dominated by some of the most leftist local governments in the country, most notably in San Fransisco

Who the fuck here has even seen avocado toast on a menu irl? I was born in SoCal, grew up in Hawaii, went to undergrad in PDX, went to grad school in NYC (lived a year in Brooklyn), spent a ton of summers in Minneapolis, 2 years in Chicago, and currently live in a suburb of Sacramento, and frequently visit the bay area. I've seen avocado toast on maybe two (2) menus in my entire life. I honestly do not, and never have, understood this meme. I know this predates drumpf, but I feel like it's just another retarded spin thing about immigrants and border walls and nonsense despite the fact that only drumpfkin tards drink shit like corona.

Governments shouldn't be about profit.
And corporations have no place in government (other than paying their fucking taxes, which they never do).
Governments need to focus on the wellbeing of their citizens. Making sure people have access to quality education, housing, food, and healthcare.
Governments that only care about continuous economic growth need to be torn down.

Tbh, I used to be a fabian, thinking we could effect change gradually.
But after my best friend died because he couldn't afford to go to the hospital, I think I got radicalised.
Plus, we have a very small window to limit the damage from climate change. Most of the animals are already fucked, but at this rate a solid 60% of the planet will be completely unihabitable by 2050.
