This is a meme shared on 9Gag that repurposes a UK news article screenshot. The original news piece from The i Paper covers a 70-year-old pensioner who is unable to sell her £850,000 family home, alongside context that 2.9 million UK residents over 55 who want to downsize are struggling to sell property in the current housing market. The 9Gag title 'The Day Of The Pillow has begun' references a popular dark humor internet meme that jokes about younger generations waiting for older family members to pass away (with 'pillow' referring to the crude euphemism of smothering elderly relatives) to inherit high-value property that they cannot afford to purchase themselves, creating an ironic contrast between the older homeowner's frustration at being unable to sell her home and younger people's desire to gain access to that same unaffordable housing via inheritance.
