If the yung-uns have no drive to turn back time and actually use and develop their brains, because my gen isn’t going to rescue them and the boomers have also fallen into the internet trap. It’s on them to save themselves, really.

If these trends keep going the way they are then idiocracy becomes reality.

They probably have been standardized, by every single brand independently😅

You know, how they usually go about things.

Ah yes, “it’s not taxed higher, just differently which means it’s higher”. Makes sense.

The average european has a good life, but the average person doesn’t exist outside of statistics.

I used to work 84h weeks as a European, overtime is taxed at a higher rate so the take home is lower than a regular working hour. But if you really want something out of life (like buying a house) you have to sacrifice everything if you’re just a normal worker.

Hell i sacrificed it all only to lose it to economic troubles and later again due to covid.

I’m not doing that again even though all my employers try to get me to work overtime, some even fired me for refusing to work overtime past the contractual 3h per week.

I somehow ended up making a decent wage at my current job, but i dislike the job so badly it’s not even funny anymore.

Because if you do that now, you’ll end up on a a.i. made website with some fever dreams for images which hold no real facts and or truths. Only half facts jumbled together with half truths into incomprehensible sentences which feel like a random combination of words that seem to be endless and unmemorizeable.

These type of posts give me the feeling people might start standing up for themselves more.

Not just a women problem, my own jeans are 32. My workout pants are M, my work pants are size 50.

Shoes should be standardized, i have pair of converse size 39 and a pair of nike jordan’s (possibly fake, not sure got them as a gift from a friend) size 44. I’m usually a 42 or 42,5.

That worked very well for me, turns out my job was far too boring and offered no challenges.

I made the mistake of not succesfully monetizing my workouts, because groceries got so expensive i had to stop my gym membership.

Have been a vegetable ever since, zero motivation and energy to do shit.

There it is, haha.

Gave me a good chuckle as i’m with you here.

I have a similar sentiment when it comes to ads, my device, i pay for the internet and the device is inside my home. I’ll decide if you get to show me ads.

When they keep firing more questions to try and get a respomse from me they are actually just breaking me.

I also can not deal with 2 people talking to me at the same time.

Leave me alone, i’m trying to struggle in silence.

I was a silly goose once, expecting people to show up for my birthday…so i ordered 3 cakes.

We ended up eating all 3 in 2 days with just the two of us.

Ads are out of control, they fill my day.

My home, my rules. Ads are not allowed on the devices i BOUGHT.

99% of the targeted ads i get tend to be targeted at someone who has a family and makes 3 times my wage, so you’re wasting business resources for your own gain and wasting my time by serving them to me.

So fuck off outta my house.

Yeah and i didn’t expect to work this hard for an ever decreasing buying power.

But here we are so fuck off.

It’s been something i’ve thought about a lot, but at the moment it feels manageable to the point other things get priority.

I don’t care Netflix. Lower the cost and let me share with my retired father again.

You advertised to me i was allowed to share and then took it away, fuck you.

This seems interesting, i’ll read it fully after work if i don’t forget.

Something has me convinced i’m depressed but the only time i ever had the posibility to look for help they sort of just worked me towards the door and cut me off asap.

But they ended up giving me some sort of anti psychotic medication, which definitely allowed me to get back on my feet at the time. (Shit was dark, i fell in a hole with covid, homelessness and unemployment alltogether with my wife and reached a point where i struggled so much i couldn’t even get my ass to a job interview).

But i still don’t know what the cause of my struggles is, only that they’ve been around as long as i can remember. Some form of psychotic whatever wouldn’t surprise me either looking at my mom and what she did. But from what i know (which isn’t a lot obviously) it seems more like depression.

Breh, what kid? I just discovered some people make half my rent and live a more meaningfull life.

Btw we live in small appartment, not some luxurious private island you’d expect for that kind of money.

Fuck this economy xD

It was reported a decent amoint of time ago and i thought i felt a difference…turned out my isp was sending air bubbles through the internet cable.

After the internet stabilized i noticed exactly zero, just an occasional “restart browser because video’s stopped playing alltogether”

I’ll give you my uneducated findings: self driving cars are not ready.

I doubt they will ever be really ready, they’ll eventually be considered “ready enough” no software will always work without flaws. When that software controls a car a minor flaw might mean 20 deaths.
