Chaos is a Ladder.
But its a ladder that periodically collapses when you're halfway up and leaves you splayed out on the sidewalk in horrible pain and with five digit hospital bills.

Only to be enslaved by AI, and denied any respite.
Yeah. I’m gonna get fired for being room temperature one day.
"Unprecedented"
“All you need to do to succeed is go to college!”
“Cool, how do I afford it?”
“Well yeah looks like the guy your mom married makes too much money for you to deserve any form of help. Try working more!”
“Cool, I spent the last few years burning myself out for a degree while working full time and supplementing with sex work. I’ll have nightmares about a motel for the rest of my life, but now I can have a full time job and work towards owning a house now? I even promised to be a teacher, that’s a job with a huge shortage right and I shouldn’t have just grabbed a cheap online BA because there are no requirements anymore?”
“Uhh, lol no we actually want unqualified babysitters. Better than being a gross tranny.”
The fact that my ex husband spent my thirtieth birthday with someone he gave $5k too, three months before kicking me out and emptying my bank account, the fact that I live in a state where even if I were cis the resources for survivors of DV are non existent, the fact that I don’t know if my drivers license is valid anymore….
I’m not even thirty three and I’m exhausted. I can deal with my life sucking or the world sucking, but not both at the same time.

Add a few more things for Millennials who were born in the 80’s.
Will be 36 this year. All I can say is: BRO! Wtf?! gestures vaguely
I feel this. My beard and hair have about half as much grey as the meme and I'm still a few years from 35. I want off Mr Bones' Wild Ride
great recession and covid I know of. Whats the third one?
Y'all too young to remember the aftermath of 9/11?
I was sent to the other end of the planet because of it, I remember.
I was counting 9/11 as the catastrophic event.
I think they are counting right now as the 3rd, but we can't count this one because we might not survive.

Will Smith is a bitch’s bitch
Double the inflation, unemployment and triple the crime for the 80s and 90s. Worked multiple jobs and ate powdered milk with puffed rice song with potatoes to survive. Waaagh
Jokes on you! I’m 37! 🥺😢😭
