to whoever says "omg your 20s are the best years of your life" stfu because this generation sucks in the worst way possible. yeah i do get downtime but imagine having to work full time to pay all my bills and taxes, have to micromanage everything in my life (rent...), not be a homeowner because i'd have to sell several organs to get a mortgage, can't even fathom buying a car because the insurance sounds awful, have existential breakdowns every day about what i really wanna do in life, think about how scary the future is with all the things that are happening domestically and internationally, and even hanging out with friends has to be done smartly where we think about the price before enjoying a meal or going out and genuinely having fun. 20s are the best part my ass i just wanna get this montage of self-discovery and flop era over and gain stability so i can be the rich aunt in every chick flick buying the mean girls their birkins and drinking 2-for-1 margaritas by the seaside.
#ujutxt#listen#i come from a country that went through not just one#not just two#but borderline THREE financial crises#everybody should have fucking listened when the asset bubble exploded in the late 80s and japan entered the lost decades#we're still suffering through it because 08 fucked us up even more#wages have been stagnant since and the only thing increasing are prices#how are you to tell me that i'm living my best years when i can't even begin to think about a life where i'm happy doing what i do#don't get me wrong i do enjoy my current career path#and i do in a sense look forward to what the future holds#but that doesn't negate the amount of overkill overthinking i have to suffer through#just to ensure that i don't go homeless or bankrupt and fuck over my entire life#this 100% sounds like first world problems but#idk this is just the plight of late stage capitalism#everything sucks
