But then also surprised that they’re going through it.
Like … nothing has changed about this machine in hundreds of years. Everything is set up to extract to maximum from you until you push back and then it will extract a pound of flesh or more to teach you a lesson or make an example of you.
And now in 2022 it’s even worse

Adulthood in 2022 is having the world of problems moving at you at the speed of technology and people still treating you
1. Like you pick cotton to survive and
2. Like the skillset require to navigate this is the same as picking cotton.

You gotta be your own IT for you home phone, internet, cable, computer, remember dozens of logins just to pay bills, be your own customer service, your own financial person, filter your own news, be your own personal chef, nutrionist, therapist, friend, professional advisor … and that feels like only half. Im ranting at this point.

I don’t see how anyone would be dealing with this shit in any kind of healthy way.
