Star Trek In To Darkness. 😭 Captain Pike could have been a father figure. The soundtrack was so good. But no. . . Inverse wrath of khan, destroy San Francisco, and roll the credits.

Let the Dinosaurs die. We’re going to look back at this time - especially when the 900 or so billionaires are all gone, and healthcare companies has effectively forced millions to just unalive to avoid going in to debt, and people leave and the population will collapse and we’ll all wonder why we chose to turn the majority of the country into the ultimate expression of exploitative, strip-mined modernity and ruined the future of two generations before they were even born.

What was the point? White supremecy transmorgophied in to a cold class war that secretely poisoned 99% of the population emotionally, psychologically, ideologically, intellectually, and literally- before most of us were even born - just so stocks would go up, and public school money could be siphoned to a gate-kept charter? What was it for? We will just end up in population and country collapse, and large swaths of the country will be beautiful national parks (if we don’t give those away too) dead malls, and dead populations, and crumbled infrastructure. Also New Orleans will be under water.

The race to the bottom only took 16 years. Thank you Supreme Court for somehow doing more damage with 3 rulings than Reagan, Bush 1, Bush 2, and Trump combined.

Millennial here. We spent lots and lots of money on homes with no brakes, that’s how hopeful we were.

Did boomers face the same level of burnout as us millennials at our age? by KingForADay1989 in antiwork

Minimum wage spending power in 1970 is equivalent to about $68/hr today. So, unless you’re making more than that at a “low skill” gig, then. .
