Occasionally things that I post (rarely my own thoughts because as I've learned those are often best left as inside thoughts) get over a thousand notes in a short time. It would be great if this made it one thousand reblogs by Friday (but also if it just reaches five people and helps them, that's equally awesome).

"they won't buy enough diamonds"
"millenials are killing the wedding industry"
hoooly moly it's almost like being broke means you can't do luxury! Did you just realize that paying service workers to make you a daily fresh lunch is luxury? wait I don't think they did even that... 'your new lunch habit' because packing your lunch was just invented by today's millennials? Talk about political gaslighting, so much manipulative pseudo shit in today's journalism. FYI: it's not new.

[ID: coal miners each carrying a lunch pail, except for one in the front. the one in the front is looking at the camera and seems to have something in his mouth. A lunch pail sits behind him in the corner of the photo]
Also want to point out that 2020 was a gigantic dip in consumerism, especially lunch but all restaurant work suffered because of the lockdown and surrounding era. So it's weird to me that's their comparison, both because it's astonishing if we truly have gone lower; and because they could have gone earlier for a more statistically powerful figure.
Yet even still, making the jump they did, they could have made an intensely catchy headline like "Restaurants suffer now more than they did in the times of covid" and frame the issue with relation to the timeline of history and imply greater questions about the things that have changed in such a short time.
But no, "new fangled change once again shocks the boomers" was the right angle for this economic devastation. O kay

Seeing women & immigrants voting for trump is so sad, its like watching a lamb be a walking advertisement for a slaughterhouse, and then walking straight into the slaughterhouse house. Trump don’t care, he will make your life hell!

As a veteran, I want to celebrate Veterans Day by giving a proper 'f-you' to all the stupid American citizens who decided last week that the very freedom and democracy I and many others fought and sacrificed for them to have just wasn't worth it that day.

Crime / Social Welfare
Real talk; so much 'crime' wouldn't be an issue if everyone had the means to get by.
Oh no, someone stole your car? Good thing public insurance has no deductible and you needed to repair the old thing, anyway. Oh no, your art got cut and pasted? Good thing you have everything you need to get by thanks to universal basic income, affordable housing, reliable health insurance, and a food stipend. Oh no, AI is ruining the chance to become a successful artist? Well, no, art is and has always been a shot in the dark to be seen in the crowd.
The real CRIME is that no one has the CHOICE to pursue a life of art without shackling themselves to a debt, whether it be housing, credit, or education. That debt will forever limit their wings. I wanted to be an artist from the moment I understood what my choices were. And in that same moment I knew I would rather die than have to perform something so beautiful and sacred for the price it would be worth to someone else.
I don't think any artist should be limited by the means necessary to survive. Maybe that made sense in a scarcity society but we are far beyond the ability to completely support (fund) a third of the earth's populace (with the resources distributed better). These people are not worthless just because the value they produce doesn't have a monetary value by an objective metric. Hey, neither does stock.
