The struggle is real.
It takes ~35 years of top 1% income, after tax, to save enough to be in the top 1% of net worth . Asset prices totally out of whack with wages.

Your median expectation should be a gray slab of ultra-processed meat that has been salted heavily and that will feel like concrete in your mouth. The joy of an actual American style sit-down restaurant hamburger does not exist beyond our shores.

As an American traveling internationally, the worst mistake you can make is to order a hamburger in a restaurant (outside fast food places). What you get will be virtually inedible.

Two men (neither of whom has held an actual job outside politics) proclaim their love for the American "worker". The people they claim to represent hate them because they are overeducated and underemployed.
Figured this picture was relevant with all the discourse around “politicians not showing up to Teamsters picket lines”. Proud to support @OmarFatehMN for Mayor!!

This is a mean post, but I believe that it is deserved. You can't try to use your dominant position in the sexual hierarchy to affect public behavior if you don't have that dominant position.

This is 20 yr-old me and 40 yr-old me, btw. I've watched the same absolute bullshit excuses play out over and over again. If you act shitty, you are shitty. The shittier you act, the shittier the world will treat you.

The flip side of social mobility is that downwardly mobile people feel status anxiety and think the world is ending. I have a sympathy for them, but the solution is to simply talk about it and realize it's ok. There's nothing to be embarrassed about, and your kids will be ok.
stray wondering:. how much of "i don't want to bring children into this crapsack world" is actually "i don't believe i could provide a life for my children befitting the social class with which i identify".

The worst thing women ever did was export their shame dynamics to men. Men will fail at EVERYTHING 100X more than women in their lives. That's fine. We're the high variance sex. I refuse to judge any man who tries and fails.
I'm not mad at women - men just need to nut up and take the shot. Women will never make it easy for you.

In 1999, a family could afford a suburban McMansion on a single income as a waste management consultant with no college degree.

Just make a move and if it's not reciprocated, move on.

Women don't tell you when they want you to make a move. They behave exactly the same, and then fault you for your lack of emotional intelligence in sensing their change in internal attitude.
guys. women will tell you when they want you to make a move. you don’t need to force it. move too early and you ruin your one chance. this is the one lesson i wish men would learn.
