Pretty good. Literally just finished my biggest job ever.

Unspoken expectations are premeditated resentments.

My mon recently got mad at her sister’s friends for not helping with the arrangements of her 60th birthday party. I then asked wether she had asked for their help to which she said no. Well, that’s a you problem then.

It’s not a cast iron skillet problem, it’s a mental health problem.

I mean, as long as it’s your cast iron skillet.

Well people want my opinions on current events obviously.

That or my renovation services.

It is if you don’t buy premium.

I had the same reasoning: I’ll rather regret trying than having not. I’m still going though. Just took a huge paycut compared to my previous job, but then again, I no longer have a boss either.

I started my own bussiness early this year. Though I’m not in the clear yet, I must say that commiting to actually doing it was the most anxiety inducing experience of my entire life. I was feeling physically ill for months due to the extreme levels of fear and worrying wether I’m about to make a huge mistake.

I’m certain I won’t get it, as it’s not on my wishlist nor have I ever mentioned it to anyone, but my number one desired object right now is a life-sized, anatomically correct model of a specific non-human animal body part.

My aunt talked her mom out of kitchen remodel because it’s going to cost so much (that she’ll get smaller ineritance then) while my grandmom, who already spends most of her time alone at home then can’t even spend her savings to make her surroundings a bit nicer.

I tend to be painfully aware of my underlaying motives when ever I’m about to post something and it’s almost always some form of bragging so I refrain from posting it. If it’s not something I’d like to see on my own feed I don’t post it for others either.

I don’t see that. To me it reads as guilt tripping the parents for wanting to spend the money they themselves earned.

My criticism isn’t aimed at parents who want to leave an inheritance to their kids. It’s directed at those kids who expect it from their parents, as if they’re somehow entitled to it.

Inheritance from who? Your poor parents?

What on earth are you talking about? Generational wealth is not a binary thing. There are people rich enough to pass their fortune to their kids and then there are ones who can’t. That’s how it has always been and that’s how it’s always going to be.

What’s infuriating about this? Why the heck should I inherit something I haven’t worked for? I’ve always told my parents and grandparents that dying with an empty bank balance is the ideal way to go. Hell, preferably be in debt.

There’s not much left to browse if one blocks all communities on lemmy that people post politics to. You can’t even discuss electric cars or space travel anymore without people coming to tell you their opinions about Elon Musk.

It’s not even memes. People are literally posting here screenshots of political opinions that are not even intented to be entertaining. I’m pretty sure there’s a dedicated community for political memes but nah, everything needs to be injected with politics nowdays.
