Look at all these 30 something druggies on here who had middle class parents who gave them nice things and a nice home. That's not a coincidence. The boomers completely fucked with our work ethic by telling us we were just amazing all the time (except when they'd sometimes break down at random points and tell us we were all hopeless). I had to teach myself what my parents should have taught me in my 20s. -

Originally posted by rabbitweed So looking at that situation, I feel like unemployment is your biggest challenge. You solve that and you can start making a dent on savings and living situation. Get that sorted, work on the addiction - use the fuel of your next step (better job, through more education whether that's formal or informal) to give you something to make it worth it.
Wow, what a finacial genius you are. "If you don't have a job, can't pay your bills, drugs/drink too much, have no education, and very few professional contacts maybe you should get a job and earn an income". It amazes me that nobody ever thought of that before you. -

When your life is a clusterfuck trying to fix it all at once won't work. The first step IMHO would be to get a menial job that provdes *some* income.
Most my generations brains are fucked from baby boomer parents and education systems. They don't function properly. If you don't take it step by step, and start un-fucking it, you're doomed. -

Job: Several, basically I work when I want and am paid pretty well.
Sobriety: addicted to painkillers. Smoke 1 or 2 joints a day.
Living sitch: have 3 places I mostly stay at. They all have nice beds. Rent is a big monthly expense

Tryna be an awesome boyfriend/father figure to girlfriends kid thats not mine. See my kid every few weeks. Am looking forward to having another kid ans trying to have a good family.
Health: debilitating chronic pain. Look pretty healthy. Eat at restaurants much of the time and seem to either exercise too much or too little
HAHAHA Imagine if someone actually lived like this what a faggot they'd be and how sincerely they would need to commit suicide
your life is incredibly confusing.
You have less than $100k saved, yet earn awesome money and rent three separate places?
Why exactly? -

Your generations problem is they can't take responsibilty for the poor decisions they make becasue they think they are so perfect in every way. -

Because your generation gave everyone participation trophies and told them that they were unique and special and amazing and that they could become whatever they wanted.
When they weren't getting divorced or abusing drugs or having emotional breakdowns. -

My generation didn't do that. Boomers rasied Generation X (Baby Bust) and Xennials not millineals/Gen Y and not Gen Z -

Don't fool yourself we used to talk about it in the 70's. And the rules were made up in the 1600s'. -

Aren't you an IT employee in the Netherlands? I know roughly how much money they make, I really wouldn't brag too much.
I'm certainly not bragging about the raw number amount I make now - I'm starting out and my rates are absolutely at the low end. -

Do the maths. A lot of baby boomers raised millenials.
People born in the 80's didn't get participation trophies. That shit started in the late 90's. Next? -

Never ever heard of someone born in 1975 being a millenial. That's solidly gen-x. Where the hell are you getting this?People born in the 80's didn't get participation trophies. That shit started in the late 90's. Next?
People born in the late 80s were CHILDREN in the late 90s. My god man, stop digging yourself into a hole. Just admit you were wrong. -

There have been a few before but usually in shitholes like france and georgia or other overtly corrupt places, it's just the western world version which is undoubtedly a sign of the decline. Every aspect of society is slumming to the least common denominator. Even the promiscuity of young women waters down the gene pool and makes the most mindlessly accessible paradigm to be the status quo.
So the concentration of power makes the vast majority weak and ineffectual in every way. In all echelons of power and control it's in their best interests to keep it this way so dividing people into camps, none of which get too much power, is what they seek to do. It's literally COINTELPRO type shit but is happening in every aspect of society, just to further an agenda of the eroding of the identity to ensure power structures remain in place. Idk if I'm being specific enough, I'm high because I have to take drugs to cope with reality and my degeneracy from a young age has been as a result of the breakdown of the safety, stability and freedom of the family unit. It seems to only get worse and I know the bottom is still a ways away -

This sounds like you're saying I'm your overlord but I really just want nothing to do with you. I would not talk to anyone as dumb and pathetic as you in my day to day life and I would prefer that during the time I spend online I'm not being reminded there are people in the free world who are this mindless, sad, boring, disgusting and ugly inside and out.
This thread isn't about how much that hurts you though, it's about utility and the decline of western civilization so I guess how useless and stupid you are is on topic.
