A lot of people are finally waking up to the likelihood that their lives will not go like their parents’ lives went, and it’s very hard to let go of that expectation. I also think a lot of people already knew that and are at a later/different stage of grief.
Like babe we’re not getting mortgages and children and college educations and Roth IRAs. Sorry but you’re not gonna be 60 years old talking about your new hardwood floors with your best friends on the back patio.
I feel like personally I did a lot of grieving about 6 years ago when I realized how bad the climate change situation is and I had to let go of a LOT of personal and professional goals and it SUCKED ASS
I know I’m meant to be a little Nonna making meatballs for my grandkids and I will likely never get that and I’m furious but also that was never guaranteed and so you have to pivot. Obviously I’ve pivoted into being a cunt.

no one is talking about how 60 monkeys can now make hands free phone calls
(Sorry guys if this ruins the little dumbass Twitter joke but the screenshot above is fake. I thought that had already come to light on Twitter. Sorry for ruining your lives)
Honestly 3000 monkeys in a test is an insane number I’m not sure why that would be real but ok. Anyway the conditions of the 23 monkeys it was tested on were terrible cnn.com/2022/02/17/bus…
can't wait to go to a party or bar again soon to corner someone and bring up how the Jason Wade version of You Belong to Me that's on the Shrek soundtrack isn't on Spotify
one time at work everyone made a list of their top five albums of all time and I put the Shrek soundtrack on mine and everyone got mad but I was right
Shrek 2 soundtrack is also full of bangers sorry to use the term "bangers"
one thing that concerns me so much is that either humans as a whole or much more likely today’s American society is showing itself to be absolutely incapable of sacrifice.
The idea of sacrifice is going to be like The Theme of the next 100 years imo. Who sacrifices? For whom? What are we willing to sacrifice? Etc
And hypocritically many people who are rock hard for “the ultimate sacrifice” military-esque talk are seemingly very unwilling to actually give up anything for the greater good at all.
