This is why they can pry my ability to work from home from my cold, dead hands.

One of the final fuck yous from Boomers will be the watering down, delaying or collapse of social security benefits because they draw from it but elect reps that don't want to fund it and instead prefer military industrial spending. 70? 75? 80?

I like to imagine your watch is just a timer counting down from 40 years.

Driving sucks. If you can, help advocate for alternatives and better planning!

No matter where people live in cities, everyone should have options for walking, biking, or taking public transportation in safe, accessible, and reliable ways to get around.

Zoning needs to change to allow more density and mixed use, bringing people closer to their needs.

Did you forget? 15 minute cities are communism! /s

Such a crazy idea. If you were able to afford to live near where you worked that would be less stress. More stress helps keep you complacent and under managements thumb. They have to pay you just enough to make sure you can never jump off the hamster wheel.

I feel this weight every day. I drive a few times a week and frequently... its less safe than I'd wish for. I feel stuck with this shit location, no valid third places for me or my type of person. I might be moving next year but it's also not up to me.

I don't live in a city, but I work there.

My boss won't let me do work from home.

What do I do?

Burn out is the end result of the current system of employment for pretty much all "white-collar" jobs.

"Blue collar" jobs have an end too, but usually when their bodies get too old/busted up to do the work.

We're all in this hell together.
