The pod space things are criminally overpriced and sometimes dangerous. There was this video of someone showing "futuristic" pods made of cheap plastic and electronic-only doors.

If a fire breaks out in these spaces, people will die. I don't understand why a fire marshal would even allow these places that are filled with dozens of people and no emergency exits.

A trailer park or a tiny home sounds like a penthouse suite compared to these places. But they will build these and charge this much because people are that dumb. I get that LA housing costs are extreme, but surely there are many things you can try to do before this.

That's fucking depressing. Though the question I have is - from the looks of it, he works remotely, so why even bother living in such a high cost area? I'm pretty sure this kind of money can rent a much nicer place, possibly even in the same state.

WTF, I pay about that much per month for a whole-ass house and utilities?

Lives in Hollywood

Well there's your problem

I think I have like 10 backpacks....

This is more austere than when I lived in college dorms. 2 sets of clothes? That means this dude is washing them daily. It's also a lie unless he's working out in his street clothes. It also means 100% remote work, which is nice. But not having a nice shirt/dress means interviewing might be a problem.

Not even the most ideal state of communism advocated for shit like this. You still had personal possessions.

Has anyone said "You will own nothing and be happy"?

I can get behind a sparse life (although not for me lol), I get it... but not paying 2 fucking grand a month for the privilege. Christ.

I don't have the heart to tell my wife that I'm clocked out from life and waiting for it to end eagerly, because after multiple quiet attempts, I'm too cowardly to do it for fear of survival with disability.

I use the prospect of a fatal heart attack as my primary gym motivation. It works.
