I can barely afford rent at 40; how the fuck am I going to afford to raise a kid?
puts hand on shoulder son, we've got to talk about your avocado toast
Don't forget all the Starbucks coffee!
Instead of buying that latte, why don't you instead buy some bootstraps and pull on them
For those who don't know, this phrase has come full circle.
It started as something literally impossible. Then people started using it to say they did it anyway. Expecting what is supposed to be impossible out of people is insane.
Sadist laguage.
I'm sure it was only a few bad apples that started that.
Disregardless, I could care less.
"There's never going to be a good time for it. We didn't have a lot of money when I had mine. You just learn to sacrifice for them."
Motherfucker, I just ate ramen for dinner.
And the rich are even buying up trailer parks to squeeze money out of the people there, so even becoming trailer park trash with kids is unaffordable.
I support the death penalty for private equity executives.
Who said anything about raising it? You just need to have the kid, and then the orphan crushing machine will take over from there
I just straight up wouldn’t want to be born so why would I do that to someone?

Shut up! You'll scare off the venture capital
goddammit I will never unsee that. thanks for burning it in my mind, I'm now going to chuckle when some says SAAS.
For just $19.99/mo the sex can be yours. Upgrade to our $29.99 package and you won’t have commercials.
"This orgasm was brought to you by Capital One and the prison industrial complex. What's in YOUR prison wallet?"
No way, that'd be too convenient. They'll probably make that illegal as soon as they find out someone thought of it.
All great app ideas are taking something and doing it illegally.
As a boomer-adjacent 60-year-old, with an adult son living at home, it's the economy, stupid.
But, more than that, the world has gone to shit. And, no, that's not the boomer generation's fault. It's the fault of the billionaires and the ignorant people of all generations who have voted for conservatives over the past 50 years.
Millennials were not voting 50 years ago.
Over the last 50 years includes 0 years, 1 years, even 2 and 3 up to 4 or 5 years ago. Probably even more who knows.
Who'd you vote for in the 2020 primaries?
I maxed out my donation to Bernie and voted for him. In the 40 years I've been voting, I've never voted for a conservative, or Republican, neither federal, state nor local. I've always voted as far left as I can.
Bernie pin:
One article pointed out it takes $200 for a date, while another points out Zoomers are just not having that much sex, nor are they into romantic relationships.
Maybe if you work a people too hard and give them no hope for a future; if they can't afford to have a life, they may not want to have kids.
No, no. We just have to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and stop being lazy.
Microplastics are stored in the balls.
Ah shit, I've been making my own this entire time!
Downloading cum is so easy, come on be realistic
Bro knows where the cum is stored and where the sex happens
Of course, bro is using Arch btw.
Personally I just don't like children, and am suspicious of people who claim to have them on purpose
I always thought this was a weird take. Like yeah I get being a parent is hard and with the world today it’s just not financially fair to a kid for most people to try.
But dude, kids are hilarious and fun m, if you know the right ones.
What this is, is the cascading effect of fewer not-shitty people (or decent people in shitty situations) having kids. Then, everyone sees this maladjusted children and even fewer people want to give it a go.
I mean it’s not anyone’s choice but theirs if they want to have em or even like em. But ironically it’s almost like accelerationism when we all collectively swear off trying.
Wait, you guys are finding partners?
Sex ed was too effective. They don't know how to have sex without condoms!
Grok, where do I put my pennis?
Sounds about right
