Don’t we all kind of hate on boomers though? Like from Gen Alpha to Gen X, even my grandpa from the silent generation.

Forgive me, but what exactly is Gen Z’s grievance against Baby Boomers? Is it just envy (they bought their house in 1979 for $42,000 inherited Grandma’s two houses) or is it something deeper?

We'll see....

Millennials have spent most their lives doing economically worse then their parents. 2008 really was a raw deal for Millennials.

As much as Boomers criticize Millennials for avocado toast, a significant number of millennials have actually caught up by saving and investing better than their parents.

Boomers and Millennials go at it because of perceived generational inequities. Boomers say they don't exist an Millennials wonder why it took so long to buy a first home. Hint: look at real wage growth.

Gen Beta may fair better than Millennials. If they do then Beta won't have the same relationship.

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.

My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

Happy wife happy life is a really toxic saying. I’m just shocked how this has become the standard saying for men in relationships. I have friends of mine saying this all the time, and I have just thought it’s so cringe and always want to say my thoughts on it but always decide to hold back. However, imagine the saying reversed - happy husband happy life - that would lead to all kinds of uproar. To me happy wife happy life means I need to sacrifice my wants and needs to make my wife happy.

I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my manager (now he's acting normal but there were moments where he was condescending/dismissive/mocked my and others work/arrogant/said stuff was "wrong" constantly/belittling the difficulty of tasks etc. in the past project).
Maybe it is "standard chewing out" but it bothered me a lot. So much that I find myself still getting all fired up inside thinking about it...
Idk how to let go of this :/ Thoughts?
