We’re in a different political climate than when you were young. Today’s youth can’t afford to have children, and even if they could, they know bringing a child into a world of impending climate collapse is a cruelty.

They’re jealous of your privilege and resentful that you still find the time to complain in front of them even with your good luck

the fuck are you on about? I’m talking about the generation before me lying about how the baby years of the child is the best, the same way they lied about being in school being the best. 35 is down there with school years.

I’m talking about how in contrast to what the generation before told me, starting a career turned out great for me. I’m not talking about any privilage. If it seems privilaged, it’s telling them that when they start their own career, things start to look up. maybe they’re still just “working jobs” instead of "starting their career.
