houses are easy you just sign away your next 30 years for a "starter house" then you live there for a bit and flip it to get a more expensive house, and keep doing that forever until you can barely make the payment and then one day you get laid off and you quietly drive home and tell your spouse and kids that your day at work was fine and you go into the bathroom and put a pistol in your mouth!

deal with it. there are 'upper millenials' and 'lower millenials', but the accepted definition of the earliest birth-year is 1980-1982 depending on how thinly you want to slice the cake.

(personally i prefer the upper/lower division over trying to cram a 'generation y' in there)

it's like how 1991 and 1992 are technically part of the 90s but boy howdy where they more about 80s blowback

the internet that the 90s promised me was a lie

i have never had a video call with a smiling african native while baba yetu played in the background

i have probably done more harm to the rainforest in the last decade than all of my ancestors combined

there are stages you can go through.

i have had this argument with many people and they almost always come around to my way of thinking about it. the key to acceptance is the upper/lower divide, and to accept that there will be some blurring.

you can also think about it in terms of aligning with those who are closest to you in order to avoid atomizing your cause (see the Green Party in the united states)

if it was money laundering they wouldn't shell out for a recognizable brand both because it would cost more and invite more attention. you want your money laundering outfits to be boring and unseen like nail salons, carpet stores, or pay day loan companies.

theres a whole block near my apartment of hair salon, armenian clothing store, and barren liquor store that have been there for years and ive never seen anyone in any of the stores who doesnt 'work' there. must be some sort of front. when i moved in, there was a pizza shop across the street that had a guy working there who would read the paper all day and served no pizza. you could order it, and hed put a tombstone in the oven. it was pretty epic.

i went to an italian restaurant like that once. just hungry and it was there, walked in, zero customers, a couple of guys at the back, lady at the counter, tons of empty tables. we sat down and ordered and they made the food and brought it out, very home style, not fancy but still hearty. like eating in someone's living room. really good service, they kept coming by, but clearly not something they did every day b/c they seemed unpracticed at it.

about halfway through the meal i realized holy poo poo, i'm literally eating in a mob restaurant. this place does not exist to serve food. and it was a real weird feeling
