  Yeah, my boyfriend and I are in our mid twenties and still not moved out of his parents’ house, but we just made an offer on a house and it was accepted, so fingers crossed.

  Shit is already so rough, and yet it doesn’t seem like it’ll get better. It’s a shame, really.

  Yeah, I’m in my early twenties and my mom is in her sixties. A friend of mine is in her mid twenties and her parents are both in their sixties, too. Some people wait longer to have kids for various reasons. Luckily, my mom barely knows how to open Chrome, so at least I don’t have to worry about her getting addicted to TikTok lmao.

  It was required in my school to take the ASVAB. If we missed we’d face repercussions. I purposely answered questions wrong-- not all of them because it would look too obvious, but I apparently still scored high enough that they still considered me. I got my results in class, we had someone from the military come speak with us and try to get us to sign up, and even text messages.

  Shit was so fucking annoying.

  I asked a friend of mine from where I used to live if she had to take it and she asked me what the fuck I was talking about.

  I mean, shit, I guess when you live in a state that is known for having awful levels of education they figure they can shove you in the military instead.

  …Or football.
