i'm with you. late x'er here. my boomer parents' promises never panned out, my retirement plan is work until i die or check out early if i can't manage it.

getting lumped in with boomers when i have been served the same shit as the younger generations gets old, but the minds of people who never didn't have internet is still a bit of a mystery to me.

funny how appropriate the x nomer and all it implies about our generation turned out to be.

Judging by the state of my town, I think the secret ingredient is living in a shithole.
