I feel bad as an older millennial for having some sense of stability and normalcy growing up in the imperial core. Kids today get a revolving door of covid, school shooters, prison style schools, state enforced white supremacist education, and climate change. Growing up the biggest thing I had to worry about in school was making sure my dad didn’t see my shitty grades so I could continue fucking around with my friends and not being sent to the kindergarten gulag.
