Boomers didn’t “work harder.” They were literally paid in gold, while college and houses cost pennies. In 1964 — when the first Boomers turned 18 — the federal minimum wage was worth $146/hr in 2025 dollars when measured in gold. - A full year of college took ~180 hours of min-wage work (one summer). - The median U.S. house took ~1,350 hours (8 months). In 2024, a Zoomer at the same age got $15/hr in gold terms. -Same year of college now costs 20,000+ hours of min-wage work. -Median house? 56,000 hours — 27 straight years. Vietnam War/Stagflation vs. GFC/COVID is irrelevant. They weren’t “built different.” They were born on 3rd base in tee-ball. We’re expected to pinch-hit in the bottom of the 9th, down 10 runs, in Yankee Stadium.

Man, its dope to see people celebrating a scientific breakthrough instead of antivax nonsense for a change...

🚨 NEW: Netflix secretly recorded an interview with Dr. Jane Goodall in March, set to air only after her death. In it, she says she wishes Trump and Elon Musk could be blasted into space… and closes with: “Don’t lose hope.” Now that’s a final message.

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

I cant believe I was about to be angry at Merriam-Webster. Sorry I didnt understand your game.

@ByungChulHarden The encouragement to isolate from other humans and rely only on tech is intentional: we are weak, exploitable and profitable apart. The more you buy into it the more you’ll need it so they can collect more data to profit off you. Go out, make friends, live a real life, connect.

@missmayn Nothing but respect for my goat 🤣

We would never even dream of glorifying political violence

DEMOCRATS- “It’s the rights fault” REPUBLICANS- “It’s the lefts fault” HENRY WINKLER- “Check out this big fuckin trout i caught”
