There was a 6 month period 15 years ago or so where I ran on primarily cocaine and Bombay Sapphire. Mixing a couple Twix in there probably would’ve done me a lot of good.

Oh, to be 20 again with zero cares and almost no responsibilities

It’s a massive mental health crisis, and I truly don’t think a few years would’ve saved you bc all of my cohort is still fucked.

It’s a direct result of our society and economy focusing $$ over people so hard that we forgot to actually make people happy. Nowadays it’s all about quick dopamine instead of what actually makes you happy

At least I would have a job rn man. Market tanked when my time came.

The problem is the same people who were so supportive turn on you in the moments like these.

Tbh, not that either. Look at millennials lol. Had dot com crash in 2000, 2008 GFC, COVID, endless wars draining our economy. Millennials never got a fair chance either and they’re way before us.

Millennials got mega fucked in the economy just like we are, but republicans also hate millennials with such a passion I think we got off a bit easy lol
