Very Unfathomable Horror

“GEN Z DOESN’T DRINK” “GEN Z DOESN’T DATE” “GEN Z DOESN’T BUY HOUSES” “GEN Z DOESN’T HAVE KIDS” “GEN Z DOESN’T SMILE” Maybe because: • They graduated into a pandemic • Job hunted into an AI apocalypse • Entered the housing market when rates hit 8% • Watched a world war start before they turned 25 • Got their first paycheck and lost 30% to taxes they’ll never see benefits from • Student loans kicked in the same month rent doubled • Were told to “just network” during two years of lockdown • Grew up on social media designed to make them feel worthless • Watched billionaires add trillions during COVID while they lost their jobs • Inherited a planet that’s literally on fire • Were promised the American Dream and handed the American Bill But yeah. It’s the avocado toast.
