THE BOOMER PLAN: 1) Stay in the family home forever. 2) Your kids never become adults. 3) No new homes ever. 4) Social Security stays solvent till right after you die. 5) Tune immigration to staff nursing homes and Chili's. 6) Your kids never have kids. 7) ??? 8) Profit?

This is going to sound harsh but if you don't have some unceasing compulsion making you write, why the hell would you do it? There are a million better ways to spend your time. Take the "block" as a gift and go outside.

116k likes so I guess TV-brains agree with this but honestly there is no meaningful relationship between the two. It's not even the same people involved by and large.

One of my adult onset peculiarities is something I don't post about because kind of like veganism it becomes insufferable if you're someone who talks about it.

One of the best things you can do for your cognition is, if someone makes you mad, to immediately try and steelman why they would do what they did.
