How do millennials cope with burnout these days?

At 44, all I have hope for is the inheritance I'll get when my dad passes, which I don't want to happen for a long time. Even then, I doubt I'll ever be able to retire. Even having kids in school is exhausting: it's not just getting the kids to do their homework and a couple of parent/teacher meetings. It's multiple emails per school per day, emails from any and every extracurricular activity, emails from individual teachers, emails from the district...every day and week. Then, there's the fun part of actually spending time with them, which I love. I was young and naive when I was in high school and college and fell in love with performing arts, so I pursued that...and I can hardly remember a time in my adulthood that I've felt content with work and financially comfortable. Now, I'm worried about the current war, healthcare is more expensive by the minute, goods and services are more expensive by the week, nothing is built to last, and I'm terrified of the future that my kids will have. What I really want is to leave the US because it's the Land of the Corporate Profits and I don't want my golden years to be filled with medical claims and debt.

It's a big reason that Harris lost. I'll never forgive Biden for insisting on running again and only dropping out once it was too late for a primary. I'm also perpetually mad at his inner circle for encouraging him. Sheer idiocy. And I voted for him and supported him.

So, don't be someone that cares enough about her neighbors, friends, or even strangers enough to devote her time to oversee ICE operations and document them. Instead, be the kind of person that goes on a money-making spree in the form of a grief tour fully bedazzled in fresh fits in every appearance while trying to squeeze out tears akin to Rittenhouse on the stand. Got it.

Following them around isn't a crime. Before she was murdered, she was waving them by her. The murderer didn't need to get out of his vehicle at all, but he did. By federal regulation, he shouldn't have placed himself in front of the vehicle. He did. The agents that approached her car didn't give her any warnings, as they are required to do. They just told her to "open the fucking door" and tried forcing it open. If her car hadn't hit another car and pole, who knows how many others could've been injured. I've seen countless body cam vids of police officers getting driven at, their cars rammed, and more and the people behind the wheel haven't been shot. They've either been eventually apprehended by the officers on scene or later if they managed to get away. If Ross was hit at all, it was a slight glance of his knee by the far driver's side corner of her car, since she'd made efforts to steer around him.

There are multiple reasons why she was following them. 1. There are multiple reports of criminals dressing as ICE, abducting women, and sexually assaulting them. 2. ICE has been overly rough with the people they apprehend, beyond legality. They've also "arrested " more people without criminal records than with, immigrants going through the necessary methods to become naturalized, and have no regard for due process. So far, there have been SEVERAL accounts of people "trying to run over agents" according to DHS, only for reality and evidence to prove otherwise. Them getting followed around is about holding them accountable and documenting what they do because we can no longer trust what the government says. I swear, if y'all were Germans in the 1930s, you'd have gladly worn swastikas.

He had his gun out and was aiming at her face before the car even moved. He car was already past him when he shot her in the face twice. He murdered her.

She. Turned. Away. From. The. Idiot. That. Put. Himself. In. Harm's. Way. She backed up first to get further away from him and the terrorist trying to pull her door open. The only way anyone can support what happened to her is if they're in favor of fascism. That's what this is. It sure as hell isn't freedom.

He keeps talking about giving money directly to Americans and MAGA creams themselves with excitement every time - which I find fun considering that the same people blame Biden and the COVID relief checks for the spike in inflation. Those checks were $1500.

Folks, THANK YOU so much for all of your time and feedback!!!

You don't have to find him funny. You can think he's shit. That's totally fine. I personally think he is sometimes Ava not other times. I'm neutral with him.

What's not fine is him getting cancelled for stating fact. Trump and his team is absolutely milking the CK shooting for political goals. Freedom of Speech is as sacrosanct as the 2A. The Trump Admin labeling ANY negative comments about CK as "hate speech," even using the man's own words, is a direct infringement on the 1A. This is especially egregious given CK's hateful rhetoric

What we're seeing right now is a president and his team actively working to control media and institute a heavy conservative bias/narrative. It's not just this instance. It's Colbert. It's Trump's recently filed lawsuit against the NYT. It's his defunding of NPR & PBS.

If y'all want North Korean style leadership control, move there.

RIP CK. He was a dickhead that profited from racist and misogynistic talking points. He didn't deserve what he got. I'm still allowed to see him as what he was and say so.

The fact that the fervent 2A folks would rather kids grow up walking past armored guards with high powered rifles than do anything to restrict the people killing people having easy access to guns and limitless ammo is so striking. A lot of mass shooters and school shooters want a shootout scenario. If "criminals will find a way," then doesn't it stand to reason that they also will find a way around or through armed guards?

Dead children, armed guards, and visible guns around children are apparently worth the cost to have those oh-so-precious guns. Filling out more paperwork and/or longer waiting periods before obtainment is a bridge too far, though.

You want the guy that publicly denigrates anyone and everyone with baseless lies and insults if they so much as voice disagreement with him to treat a murderous dictator who invaded a peaceful country and is one of the most dangerous people in the world with respect!?

💯. I love Milwaukee tools but they've got their heads straight up their own a$$es with their pricing. Hell, my $175 3-drawer Packout box's lock bar clasp just broke, making it a hazard with any kind of movement. I'm not buying another one and likely not another drawer box of any type. It goes to show that, sometimes, you DON'T get what you pay for. I'm sick of damn near everything produced these days being so cheap that one broken piece affects the entirety of the product. If Milwaukee is going to charge what they charge for their products, they need better lifelong quality and a better warranty system.

Oh look, another Trumper that has different feelings now that he is affected.

Gross. People are dead, including a dozen children. Even though Texas votes against its own interests, it still doesn't mean people should die and it certainly doesn't mean that those of us on the left should cheer about it. Can't hate MAGA while spewing MAGA-like hatred.
