"I had no idea how insanely wealthy she was, due to her tacky taste, or that her dad was a big time DNC donor. Over time, I've gotten to interact with the family and live out some rich fantasies of mine. The other day though, our friend group went to the family lake house for dinner."

It's insane how little is being done about the drug problem in the U.S. · u/acocky-acockyavich · ↑403 · 2025-12-13
"Common aznidentity talking point but it's crazy just how ubiquitous AMWF relationships are in the Bay area. It's like there's some sort of mandate for Asian girls to jump through every possible hoop to avoid dating and hooking up within their own race."
"Really…$8 million net worth to feel comfortable having kids. The Bay Area sub is filled with dumbasses who honestly believe that anything below $200k for a single person is pretty much poverty."

"I grew up in a wealthy, suburban city in the Bay Area. My high school was essentially a feeder for top schools (Berkeley, Stanford, Chicago, Duke, Northwestern, etc.). It was also home to a pretty intense social environment, so much so that throughout my time in school there were volunteers posted a"

"I've been a long time listener of these bitches and this is quite the <anna voice>NEOLIBERAL</anna voice> turnaround from when Dasha was making fun of coders, questioning why there were so successful when she lived back in the Bay area and Anna going after Amazon for labor practices not to mention a"
"They shut down roads, block traffic and bridges. Newsflash: no one with the power to make a difference is driving to work. Stop being cowards and assassinate a congressman or blow up a courthouse. Stopping <$200,000 salarymen from getting to work on time is not making a difference or speaking truth "
"He lives in West Loop, is a Bay Area transplant. He said one of the major reasons he moved out here is because nothing gets built in California because they're too obsessed with preserving old buildings there, which is fueling the homeless crisis."
"The past week my relatives from the Bay visited us in Canada. I haven't seen them in bare time since 2017 when we were teens so I was looking forward to catching up and seeing how they've changed. To sum it up, my two cousins who are 22 and 24 respectively, made me develop a very quick and maybe not"

"The author is a therapist who mostly works with rich teenagers and college students in the Bay Area, and a good chunk of her book talks about how rich kids are more likely to lack a sense of self (which I think is at the core of BPD) because their parents never valued them for who they really are."

"I feel like people are so standoffish and frankly, just fucking weird here. It's like they want to catch you saying something offensive and are obsessed with being self aware. My brother lived here 10 years ago and tons of late teens/early 20s people from our area moved up. Now no one I know from hi"

"I moved to the bay area a year ago and see this all the time now. I think I've gone 4-5 days max without seeing or hearing a shit ton of them outside my window. They're always teens and usually wear a poo shiesty mask. One time I saw them come through and rob a guy"
"Spent some time this morning scrolling through instagram and accidentally delved into a bunch of peoples accounts from the bay area who are about my age... these people glow almost. The average girl is a 9.5 and the average guy is also incredibly attractive compared to the average person in this tow"
