I genuinely think a lot of millennials are reaching the same conclusion at the same time.
We grew up watching technology make life better every year. Cell phones. iPods. Smartphones. An app for everything. It felt like the future was arriving right in front of us, and we couldn’t wait for what came next.
Then somewhere along the way, it changed.
Everything became a subscription. Social media became algorithms. Every day feels like another once-in-a-lifetime event. The things that were supposed to save us time somehow ended up demanding more of our attention than ever.
We were sold convenience.
What we got was a world that feels faster, louder, more expensive, and somehow less human.
And that’s why so many people I know dream about a completely different life now. Not more technology. Not more optimization.
Just a quiet job, a flip phone, a small town, and a place where life feels real again.
What the fuck am I supposed to do man? Why is this OUR problem? We shouldn’t have to give a dime or a second of our time for billionaire corporations to figure things out.
Senator Ron Johnson: “Every one of the 1.7 million Wisconsinites that voted for Donald Trump, you must come out and vote on Tuesday. Talk to every friend and family member and neighbor that you know, every email contact, every text contact, get them all out to vote.”
