@HeatherLemire1 Go make a sandwich. Your parents knew how to budget.

Kevin O’Leary’s comments about young people making sandwiches instead of ordering out are going viral, and honestly, a lot of what I’m seeing on social media about it annoys the hell out of me First off, it is hard to be a young adult right now. Inflation is brutal. Housing is expensive and in short supply. Groceries, gas, insurance, and energy costs are hitting everyone hard. Starting out today is not easy, and pretending otherwise is disconnected from reality. But what I completely reject is this growing narrative that boomers somehow “stole” prosperity from younger generations or should now give up what they worked for. My parents are boomers. They started their marriage with almost nothing. They lived in a depressing basement apartment in downtown Lexington before moving into a tiny rental house. My dad worked his way up at Pepsi-Cola over a 30-year career, starting in the warehouse and eventually becoming controller of the company. My parents didn’t buy their first home until I was in fifth grade, and even then it was a very modest ranch house. We ate at home almost every night. Going out to eat was rare. There were no Amazon packages showing up daily, no DoorDash, no expensive vacations, no constant lifestyle spending. A lot of people today act like previous generations all bought mansions at 23 while working part-time jobs, and that simply isn’t reality for most families. That doesn’t mean young people should just “stop complaining.” There are real economic problems we need to address. I help my own kids financially because I know how difficult things are. But I also expect them to spend responsibly, avoid wasting money, and work toward independence. No one is owed an easy life. Most people struggle at some point. I’ve worked three jobs at once as a single mom just to survive. It wasn’t fun, and I don’t wish that on my kids, but struggle is sometimes part of building a better future. Blaming “boomers” for everything won’t fix housing shortages or lower grocery prices. Spending all day online complaining won’t either. If people want change, get involved. Push for housing reform. Support policies that increase supply, competition, energy affordability, and economic opportunity. Build something. Contribute to your community. Fight for solutions instead of resentment. Quit whining. No one “owes” you anything.

I literally despise talking about anything close to politics on here but do ppl realize it's more the life and this world than whether you are a Democrat or a Republican?

We should just remove all the data centres in the world and replace them with trees

@KcWeedologists Thanks 😊

@StephKc45 The worst....Tea Tree oil works wonders tho

I got bit by a spider on my neck last night while I slept...So I spent over an hr this morning spraying my entire house. The bite is super annoying but I'm more terrified that a spider was just having his way with me while I slept

As a woman passed her daughter's closed bedroom door, she heard a strange buzzing noise coming from within. Opening the door, she observed her daughter with a "toy". Shocked, she asked, “What in the world are you doing?” The daughter replied, “Mom, I'm thirty-five years old, unmarried, and this thing is about as close as I'll ever get to a husband. Please, go away and leave me alone.” The next day, the girl's father heard the same buzz coming from the other side of the closed bedroom door. Upon entering the room, he observed his daughter with her "toy". To his query as to what she was doing, the daughter said, “Dad, I'm thirty-five, unmarried, and this thing is about as close as I'll ever get to a husband. Please, go away and leave me alone.” A couple days later, the wife came home from a shopping trip, placed the groceries on the kitchen counter, and heard that buzzing noise coming from, of all places, the living room. She entered that area and observed her husband sitting on the couch, downing a cold beer, and staring at the TV. The "toy" was next to him on the couch, buzzing like crazy. The wife asked, “What the hell are you doing?” The husband replied, “I'm watching football with my son-in-law.”

The algorithm was a lot more entertaining, when it was farm animals trash talking each other.

Shocking, I know… but some women are kick-ass drivers, love sex, hate movie talk, don’t want your money, and always say what they mean. 😏

This is a message for clothing stores as a girl.. WE DON’T ALL WANT CROP TOPS
