Poised for a massive expansion, Starcity is another you get a “furnished” single room, share a bathroom and kitchen facilities, and you pay substantially less in SF than you would for a one bedroom (studios not mentioned — not clear why). Feels like of like Apodments.

30 year old who briefly lived out of his parents house 8 years earlier (and apparently fathered a son in that brief window) continues to resist efforts by his parents to get him out. This article is a _lot_ weirder than it seems on the face of it. I really feel for the parents, and for the mother of this man’s son. Any sympathy I might feel for him evaporated in the face of his clear capacity and eagerness to argue with absolutely anyone about absolutely anything.
