HOUSTON — Rising housing prices have taken a toll on everyone, but a local trans woman has been hit especially hard. In order to adapt to the rising costs, she was recently forced to squat in a gamer’s head.
The woman, Sara Chambers, has been documenting her new living arrangement on TikTok.
“All things considered, it’s not that bad,” Chambers said in a TikTok Live. “The fact that I don’t need to pay rent to stay here does help a lot. One thing I’m proud of is that since I started living here, a lot of other members of the trans community affected by housing costs have found their own gamer’s head to live in. It’s great to be a positive influence.”
“Once you get past the underage anime girls, it’s actually a pretty nice place to live,” another trans woman living in the neighborhood commented “All of the lectures about censorship and black samurai are starting to get on my nerves, though.”
One of the most striking things people have noticed about Chambers’ TikToks is that the place she is living is noticeably more spacious than most other apartments in the area.
“Yeah, I noticed that too,” she said. “But I think it just feels like that because it’s more empty than other apartments this size. It’s definitely what you would call a fixer upper. There was absolutely nothing here when I moved in and it was pretty run down but I’ve been able to manage. Luckily the walls are smooth enough to be able to be decorated.”
At press time, the gamer Chambers is living in has declined to comment on the situation but he has been commenting on all of her videos with an incomprehensible rant claiming Vivian from Paper Mario will be the downfall of civilization.
