My dad retired at 59
I will not
He had a pension. I have a 401k I can barely fund.
He bought his house at 28.
I can't touch a down payment at 30.
He paid $90 a month for health insurance. I pay $430.
At dinner he told me I need to be smarter with money.

Didn't tell him my generation is paying for his Social Security while ours gets gutted.
Didn't tell him the ladder he climbed got pulled up right after him.
Just passed the potatoes.

Denis Villeneuve on Amy Adams' Oscar snub for Arrival:
“That was disappointing. Amy had the whole weight of the film on her shoulders. It’s not easy to act in a film like that, against a green screen. It’s a shame the Academy didn’t recognize that.”
