@u2764 is someone claiming otherwise?
@aescling @wallhackio @Lady i am reasonably certain you graduated a while ago now
@rowyn it was an interesting story! i’m glad you managed to fit it in
@rowyn i guess you DID address the main plot recently as well tho!
@DeliaChristina haha then i’m at 14 instead of a truly concerning number
@DeliaChristina total tabs across all devices or just laptop?
@coreo whats your preferred coffee shop order? why do you like/not like big cities? hows the weather?
@AzureKingfisher i extremely am not an expert on angle shades, but if they’re native or naturalized in your area then they would also be able to take your normal weather no problem. I’d be concerned that bringing them inside could mess up their biological clocks by exposing them to warmth/light at unseasonal times

@pamela ahh i love a good farm share
@pamela we’ll start a church of bureaucratic efficiency
@heyheymomo favorite bird?
@maya well, or support other people financially tho i would be a bit surprised if that was gen z’s reasoning
@maya @kottke my parents bought their current house in their mid thirties, after their second kid and had minimal educational debt to pay off. I’m lucky enough to also have minimal educational debt but I just straight up can’t afford to even rent in some of the neighborhoods my cousins grew up in bc of the way housing prices have skyrocketed locally. I think millennials responded by setting lower goals, and I think gen z prob will too if you give them ten years but also that seems kinda shitty and awful, idk
@maya @kottke so if you click through the study was only on legal adults (so 18+)
i think whats happening here is these are kids who are in college or just graduated with a large amount of college debt & who grew up being told that to be financially successful is to own your own house, have a decent car, etc. And they’re looking at how much they’d have to earn to pay off their loans and buy a house anytime soon and coming back with 600k which…yeah is still prob higher than it needs to be (esp if you live somewhere with a more moderate CoL) but not as insane as it initially looks?
