Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

More than half of people under 30 live with their parents now.
And I'm not saying that's necessary a bad thing, that's a norm in most parts of the world. But we aren't really socialized that way. People are living at home with parents who harangue them daily about not getting a good enough job and who aren't planning on leaving their home to their children.
My dad would constantly call me "loser" and other deprecating shit when I was still living with him and my mom in my early 20s. Even when i was making pretty good dough (but still not enough to live on my own) and was paying them a few hundred dollars a month, buying all my own food and paying 100% of the Internet bill.
I don't miss that at all. I feel for people who have no choice but to be in that predicament.
Parents! They can’t in good conscience let you die, but they sure as hell will make you wish you were. Most parents seem to behave with such resentment towards their children, especially the adult children falling victim to the system the parents created.
Glad you were able to get out of that situation.
