  • I had zero support system when I moved out on my own and yes I survived, but look at the cost of things and guess what it isn’t fucking inflation Its fucking greed!

    My first place was a 2 bedroom duplex that cost me 300 a month. Not best neighborhood but in 1997 not bad. Fast forward 2001 working at Walmart had a one bedroom apartment for 360 a month. Go look that same apartment today. Just looked it up fucking 958 for same place. That place with inflation should be no more then 600. How the fuck do they expect anyone to afford that at today wages?

    So yes he is adulting best he can. But promise he wont be 21 still living at home. Shit I hear kids older then that are. Some 25 year olds with college degrees are trap at home.



  • What retirement? I am Gen X and dont have that. But I do have shit ton of possessions. Luckily not in the position to have sell them off.

    Also bullshit where these Gen Z parents. My Gen Z sons aren’t suffering this fate. So far my middle son just turn 18 an adulting okay. Yeah still lives at home which sucks, by his age I had a one bedroom apartment. But he is savimg for college and will move out once he has 10k saved up.

    It’s tougher but with good parenting and knowing the pit falls in life I can guide him to success even in this hell hole.

    Doesn’t have to be this way, but until we rise and demand better nothing going change. So I will do what I got to do for him succeed. It’s up to us Gen X and millenniums to stand up for Gen Z. Its a class war folks need to fight like it is.






  • I used to knock doors back in the 1990s raising money for Jump Rope for Heart. Not once did I have to worry about being shot. And that was in Texas! Also in 1999 I was a door to door sales man for Orange Solve. Again never had an issue For fuck sakes my grandfather sold life insurance door to door. We used to have door sales man and not mention religious people who would go door to door. Not once did you hear stories like this.

    I blame fox news. They have made these people so fucking scared. Life was more dangerous back in the 70’s-80’s for a kid.

    Guess that’s what they want to go back to. I hope this man gets life in prison. Goddammit I am sick tired of these fucks ruining and destroying our world. Fucking piss baby.
