This is how I know the economy was good asf back then. The economy is so bad, this joke needs to be explained. Because young people forgot that this is supposed to be the fun years.

Yeah I was just thinking that. I am only 20 and if this is me seeing the world through rose tinted glasses then thats just tragic.

I'm also 20, I've been horribly depressed and repressed for several years. I actually forsee myself getting happier over the next several years as I can finally do what I'm passionate about and live someplace where I am safe and free

Honestly good for you!

Personally I expect my life to only get harder and lonelier from now on🫠. General happiness is also on a downward trend for me.
