I’m really worried about the state of the US despite being a white male who was I’ll coast right through it. I’ll also accept “I don’t” and “very poorly” as answers

    Also, as an elder millennial (I’m 36 but hang with a handful of late 30s early 40s peeps) we’re pushing 40 or are beginning our 40s, but we’re still stuck in effectively entry level work. All the meaningful or well paying positions that aren’t being gutted or automated are still being held down by our parents and in some cases grandparents. We can’t move up because our parents destroyed the concept of retirement to support eagle fucking corporate freedom.

    I see alot of shit talk about millennials still doing “silly” stuff like drinking and video games or whatever instead of building homes and breeding - it’s all we can afford and we can’t get those jobs that make you FEEL like an adult who’s ready to “step up life.”

    Meanwhile, they’re trying to automate all the artistic and creative work so we’re stuck with only menial low paying work to choose from.
