Cat snores serenade
My cat, Mouse, a brown and grey tabby chilling in a hidey hole ("The Mouse Hole") in her kitty furniture. A rainbow gradient blanket hangs over the right frame. She's wearing a flower come to protect her from herself. Her little beans are sticking out from the dark crevice which she has scooched herself into.

and before anyone clucks their tongue, the blast radius could be huge since many of these people are actually _very_ working class
the same vicintoronto user responding to a comment. text reads "I'm in Toronto and in certain communities, families (usually consisting of the debtor and his siblings, parents, uncle, aunt, cousins, etc.) will pool their financial resources towards a down payment for a condo with no intention of actually living there. Their intention was to flip it and split the profit amongst the family members. So a debtor will not only owe the builder the purchase price, but he'll also owe many of his family members the money they contributed to his down payment. It can get really messy..."

screenshot from a reddit post from r/personalfinancecanada from vicintoronto, post available here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PersonalFinanceCanada/comments/1pj9uc6/you_purchased_a_preconstruction_home_during_the/ headline reads "You purchased a pre-construction home during the Covid-19 real estate mania and now you can't afford to close. In a panic, you call a Licensed Insolvency Trustee for a solution. Here's what to expect" text from the post reads "Licensed Insolvency Trustee here. I've been getting many inquiries during 2025 from people who purchased pre-construction condos or homes during the real estate mania of the Covid years (March 2020 to February 2022). This is the typical scenario:"

an infamous portrait photo of joseph bloor, the land speculator who bought up and sold a bunch of west toronto. the portrait shows a man in a wide bow tie and suit; his face is crinkled in a severe stare. his eyes are beady and white. his forehead creeps up and it's impossible to see where his hairline begins amidst the shock of white hair.

people in this city are depraved man
commenter EmilyG writes in the blogTO comments: "Can't say I blame the residents. They worked hard to afford their homes, and parking is hard to find in this city. They all know what "mixed-income" means too.

this is a wild story, but buried inside of it is this extremely Gender nugget:
screenshot from the linked article that reads: Fraternities tend to operate like franchises. There’s normally a national office, which shares its name and practices with local chapters across the U.S. and Canada. But each chapter house is locally managed, often by a volunteer board of alumni and incorporated as a limited liability company, or LLC, according to Sasso. These boards may meet only episodically, which leaves the members themselves, young 18- to 23-year-old men, to run the local chapters. Typically, their main sources of income are membership dues, social events, house rent, and alumni donations. Given the lack of supervision, life at a fraternity can devolve “in some scary ways,” Sasso said. “It reminds me of Lord of the Flies.” (By contrast, the management structure of sororities is usually much more centralized, with greater alumni involvement, and their national offices often rely on a professional maintenance company to take care of their properties, he explained.)

what in the world happened here housesigma.com/on/toronto-r...
a house sigma listing that shows a property sold november 20th, 2019 for 2.95million dollars, a suspended sale at 4.95million that went from january 11th, 2023 to may 24th, 2023 and then the final sale price of 720,000 dollars knocked down from 750,000 dollars. the house itself is a boring brown two-level that shows some empty rooms with plastic rubbermaid containers stacked on it.

like many people who talk a big game about domination, palantir is all talk no action.
a very large banner from the san francisco airport that reads "Palantir Technologies, est. 2003 USA" in all caps at the top with "software that dominates, palantir.com" at the bottom also in all caps. a family with blurry faces walks in front of it, they are maybe 1/8th the size of the banner.

ahhh, but on a mobile web client (or, in this case, a zoomed-in vertical monitor)
screenshot of my browser window that shows the same circular "new post" icon button in the bottom right corner of the screen. it's next to Friedman's post and is the same as the first icon button in the post.
