@PhilNvestigates LOL where did you get your info? My husband owns a business, and when he had employees, before the pandemic, he had to pay payroll taxes.

@Rebalooks @shaunvlog_ Yep. grew up with those too, especially those darn cockroaches. Palmetto bug is just a nicer name for those nasty varmints.

@HallsInTheKid @johnhawkinsrwn I agree with you.

[VickiMBooth @MichaelDBooth]

@johnhawkinsrwn Except that there are other cultures who don't kick their kids out at 18. Since when did that become the norm, and why is it?

@brittilina Moms wore their babies in the distant past, and they still do in Africa. They worked while they wore the baby.

"Your great-grandmother was not trying to manifest a beach vacation. She was not curating an aesthetic. She was not optimizing...anything. She had a list, and the list was short, and the list was sacred.

A full pantry. Healthy children. A roof that did not leak. A husband who came home. A garden that produced. A few good dresses. A reliable stove. Sunday dinner with people she loved. Enough flour for the week and enough kindness for the neighbors.

That was the whole dream. That was the whole life. And by the standards of most of human history, achieving that list was a roaring success.

Then the twentieth century happened, and somebody figured out that a woman who is content is terrible for business. A woman with a full pantry is not running to the store. A woman who is satisfied with her kitchen is not redoing it every four years. A woman who knows what enough looks like cannot be sold the next thing.

So they got to work. They made the small house embarrassing. They made the old car embarrassing. They made the home-cooked meal embarrassing, and then when nobody knew how to cook anymore they sold it back as a meal kit with a celebrity chef on the box. They raised the cost of living until both parents had to work, and then they sold daycare and convenience food and weekend therapy to fix the exhaustion that working both jobs created in the first place.

They took your great-grandmother's list and called it poverty. They took her life and called it limited. They took her contentment and called it a lack of ambition.

And then they sold you ambition. They sold you a bigger house you cannot clean, a car you cannot pay off, a wardrobe you do not wear, a calendar you cannot survive, and a vague constant feeling that you are still falling behind.

You are not falling behind. You are running a race that was designed to have no finish line. The race itself is the product.
