1. You went to college and then got a job and now you have a house. Privileged.

2. Doesn't really matter cause you have one job and no kids. When you have those kids and you're still planning all your meals down to the nickel then you can brag.

In actuality exercise is where I funneled my angry temperament, and its done wonders for my entire life. Kind of coming full circle here to an extent
I have family members who run to deal with stress. They're still *******s.

My Psychology degree did nothing for me except put me $40,000 in debt. It especially was irrelevant when I applied to a low-level IT job with 0 experience, learned rapidly and outperformed all my coworkers, taught myself everything I needed to get important certifications, then got multiple huge raises within a 6 month timeframe in 2019

In a lot of ways I was dealt a good hand, but I also know the work I put in and feel justified in defending that

Fair enough

Doesn’t mean that it can’t work for others

Wow not recognizing your own privilege and bragging about how hard you worked to get where you are is such a unique thing for a privileged person to do, good job friend.

Everyone on this forum is privileged, that should go without saying. So why not talk about what we do with it

It’s a very white thing of you to say that it’s a white thing of me to say

You can get frozen berries cheaper at Dollar Tree. There's one near me where I buy frozen blueberries for $1 a pound. Maybe there's one near you? Shop there for your frozen berries and save some $.

1) Not everybody comes from a background that gave them the same opportunities.

2) A lot of people don't like being held accountable for their own lives because then they have to admit that they are somewhat responsible for their dissatisfied position.

3) Preach on about affordable and healthier life decisions and etc. but fat shaming is still dumb. If I remember right, It's actually been proven to be much much more harmful when you make fat people feel like **** for being fat all the time. The whole economy bit is just an excuse to be an *******. Fat people are no bankers.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
