If it makes you feel better, the CAFOs are putting most of them out of business.

Gotta get out there and create new ones, that'll stop you from ruminating on past failure.

Data without context is meaningless.

https://www.redfin.com/news/homeownership-rate-by-generation-2023/

26% of adult Gen Zers owned a home in 2023, little changed from 2022. Meanwhile, the homeownership rate for millennials rose to 55% from 52%, and the rate for Gen X climbed to 72% from 70%.
Still, most adult Gen Zers are tracking ahead of where their parents were at the same age. That’s likely because many Gen Z homeowners were able to buy when rates were near record lows.

Thanks, I discarded my sarcasm detector in early 2017

It just presents data without going into detail. You're making unsupported assumptions.

I see the gun lobby has gotten to you too. Why is no one talking about teaching these kids how to make IEDs in case of school shootings?

That's NYT's schtick!

I do the same by sorting by 'orders' and looking for better reviews. Also I usually select 'choice' shipping, so I don't have to play so many games with x seller has a price of $6 with shipping for $3, while y has a price of $4 with shipping for $7.

I've come to understand that when people say, "I wish I could do that" or "I could live a life like that"... they're just admiring a thing that is mildly interesting or fashionable.

Most people hear "you can do it too" as a challenge to their current choices and not an invitation to a happier life. I don't take it personal...

As for how you're living, I find it really inspiring! I've tried to work out how I can make some changes and it's great to hear that others are doing it well.
