Children, Life, and Love: When My Children
remember their childhood, I
want only for them to remember
that their Mother gave it her all. She
worried too much, she failed at times
and did not always get it right... but
she tried her hardest to teach them
about kindness, love, compassion
and honesty. Even if she had to learn
it from her own mistakes she loved
them enough to keep going, even
when life knocked her down. I
want them to renmember me as the
woman who always got back up.

America, Clothes, and College: O4G19:39

I wonder if one of the causes of animosity
towards "entitled millennials" is that many millennials
are poor people who look rich. Theres this growing
class of people who wear nice clothes, have fancy new
electronic gadgets, go out to eat nice food... and will
never own a home or have a retirement fund or put a
child through college.
It's so easy to say "if you cut down on the avocado toast
maybe you could save up", and so hard to accept that
a house these days is fifty thousand avocado toasts,
and thats why so many of us have just given up. We
don't treat ourselves because we think the world will
take care of us when we get older, we treat ourselves
because we know it won't. Might as well feel and look
good on the way down
geobrarian
think you're absolutely right. And what compounds
this image is the fact that fancy new gadgets and nice
looking clothes and elevated toast ARE all relatively
cheap compared to how they look. The cost of things
has gone way down while the price of property has
skyrocketed. I can buy a full outfit, a phone case with
an external charger embedded, and lunch at a local
business for under $50 total, but then I'll walk home to

my apartment because I can't afford a car payment or a
mortgage.
It's unintentional smoke and mirrors

Older, better off people also have difficulty
understanding the cell phone thing because they
remember cell phones being a luxury for thousands of
dollars practically yesterday in their personal timeline of
the world. They often have sincerely no idea you can get
at least a flip phone for $10 and pay as you go
And foods that used to be "exotic dining" in America
like sushi and pho and curry have normalized enough,
especially in cities, to be as inexpensive as a typical
quick Tunch

Yep. There's an aspect of frugality to turning your
buying choices to what gets you the most bang for your
buck, and now that you can have sushi for the price of
McDonald's, buy a suit from the thrift store and have
it tailored to you for less than the price of a new pain
of jeans, and find smartphones for under a hundred
dollars or even free with data plan, that is the sort of
also like, half of the stuff is not only nolonger a luxery
but its an actual necessity, if you dont have a computer
it just became so much harder to apply for jobs, if you
dont have a phone how are they going to contact you for
the interview?

Memes, Money, and Today: Lawrence Ferlinghetti decades ago wrote and it gives
me chills to read it today:
"Pity the nation whose people are sheep,
and whose shepherds mislead them.
Pity the nation whose leaders are liars, whose sages
are silenced,
and whose bigots haunt the airwaves.
Pity the nation that raises not its voice,
except to praise conquerors and acclaim the bully as
hero
and aims to rule the world with force and by torture.
Pity the nation that knows no other language but its
own
and no other culture but its own.
Pity the nation whose breath is money
and sleeps the sleep of the too well fed.
Pity the nation oh, pity the people who allow their
rights to erode
and their freedoms to be washed away.
My country, tears of thee, sweet land of liberty."
Lawrence Ferlinghetti
This is amazing.
