"who hurt you?" oh my parents, the economy, rent prices, my unrealistic expectations, that weird thing i said last week, the government, do you want me to keep going
the wealth disparity between the poor and rich is larger than it was when France revolted against their government. we do not have the luxuries past generations have had. what boomers and gen x doesn’t understand is Gen Z has nothing to loose therefor they have everything to gain
Watching everything that’s happening as a Gen Z-Millennial cusp (born in ‘96), I see what’s happening to youth on college campuses as, on top of everything else, the logical end point of decades of neglect of and vitriol towards children and young adults. 🧵🪡
You have to understand, Gen Z is not going to back down.
They lost every teen milestone to the pandemic. They went to high school scared of being shot. They are inheriting a burning planet.
What are we gonna threaten them with, taking away their reproductive rights?
watching the majority of Gen Z standing up and fighting for humanity brings me to literal tears. every generation gets louder than the last and soon we will no longer be silenced
On Friday, Oklahoma Republican Sen. Tom Woods, while commenting on the death of 16 year old non-binary student Nex Benedict, said, “I represent a constituency that doesn’t want that filth in Oklahoma.” (Gender fluidity)
The number to Tom’s office is:

nothing I could say would ever do you justice. you were my person, my best friend, my sister. life will never be the same, nor will I. I love you until the end of time.
I wish less people glorified accomplishing things before 30. More exploring. More starting over at 40. More finding your true passion at 50. More moving across the country at 60. People get complacent because they think life has a time limit.
It doesn't.
Celebrate lifelong evolution.
