My parents in their 30s This would make a lovely second home for our family to winter in. Hopefully the garage can fit both our cars, snowmobile and ski equipment.
Me in my 30s I’ll never financially recover from this purchase.

Gentle reminder finish that carton of milk to not lose your investment
There are several reasons why I don’t talk to my parents. But one of them is that they refuse to understand our situation right now. I make twice the money my parents made at my age, yet I am unable to buy a house while them, at my age had already finished paying for a custom built house.
They paid 60k € for that house. Today, you won’t buy it with 500k.
Don’t blame older people, blame capitalism. Americans have voted increasingly rightward, and are more supportive of enriching the billionaires in the mistaken belief that they’ll create jobs and pay us more.
I also blame your parents for how you turned out to be such a whiny loser.
This morning I went to the grocery store and only bought two items: milk and bread!
I’ve been unemployed for a year as of today.
Holy shit, this guy can afford dairy?
2 items?
I shop exclusively in the 1 item or less lane.
or less
It’s always nice to just go out to see the happiness of people buying their grocery item of the week. It’s so kind of them to just let others watch them for some vicarious bread.
If you aren’t taking advantage of the free samples you’re missing out, bud.
Some restaurants are pretty generous too:
Spoiled people nowadays demanding to eat food.
Keep in mind, this is not the fault of the parents’ generation. It’s the fault of the rich who take more and more profit out of the working people.
It sure is also their fault. They have a house, they want the price to go up. There is no incentive for them to want more houses built. So they do not get built. So there are too few. Very simple and a big part of the problem. But sure let’s just blame rich people, as if that would solve every issue.
this is the reason. but it makes ordinary people look greedy and awful… and we can’t accept that.
despite all evidence to the contrary. half my my socialist friends who bought homes are now 100% NIMBY, because they want the value of their house to go up, and that ‘value’ trumps their socialist ones by a large margin.
because everyone should have housing, but not in their neighborhood! but no, it’s not THEIR fault housing prices keep going up, aferall they ‘made an investment’ and it’s not their fault that other folks aren’t as ‘wise’ as they are…
95% of the peopel here screaming about housing prices not being fair, would 100% support no more development the second they owned a home, because now they are on the flip side of the equation, and everyone pursues their won self interest above all else. the ‘rationale’ will just go from ‘housing is a right’ to ‘preserve the neighborhood character’.
It’s the fault of the parents’ generation for electing Reagan and letting them do it.
So it’s your fault for Trump?
Just throwing it out there that only a tiny fraction of GenXers were old enough vote in the 1980 or even the 1984 elections. I am in my 30s and only one of my parents was old enough (and definitely did not vote for Reagan, I have seen their Mondale button), the other first voted for President in 1988.
Also remember that only a tiny fraction of humanity lives in the USA
We are talking about U.S. President Ronald Reagan, so that hardly seems relevant.
I’m just expanding on your point in replying to @grue
It’s the fault of the parents’ generation for electing Reagan and letting them do it.
You limit the culpability of the “parents’ generation” in electing Reagan, I limit it further. The “parents’ generation” is bigger than one jurisdiction.
I’m a Millennial, but my parents are Boomers. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
GenXers in their 30’s were not buying secondary ski houses, we were getting buttfucked by recession
Then who exactly is this meme about?
Guessing boomers and millennials. I know plenty of millenials with boomer parents. And a lot of miilenials are still in their 30’s (and fucked)
Did… Did you not read my original comment?
I think you’re inferring a tone that is not there. Demmed textual interface
Electing… meh. But not killing and eating him and his friends when he showed his true face? I’ll never forget!
If you went back before 2016 when politics were less culty and asked boomer what they thought about Preidents. They all would have said Reagan was the best. He is Neo-Lib Jesus, bringing the teachings of trickle down economics to the world. They had decades to move away from Neo-Liberalism.
My FIL was a life long republican (he was a standard conservative engineer type), his wife a democrat social worker, but the post 9/11 Iraq invasion flipped him to democrat and he’s stayed that was even now in his 80s.
My dad was a pretty liberal guy, got tear gassed protesting Vietnam. Taught us to distrust the police and most other authority. My mom was the democrat too but less extreme and ran school boards against republicans who wanted to defund everything.
All four voted for Reagan at least once.
Ehw, partially AI-image?
Created by bots, posted by bots and reposted by bots.
It’s bots all the way down here.
I’d argue there is a case for reddit repost/recomment/bridge bots that are properly tagged, credited, can be filtered out by users (I think that’s an option on PieFed, not sure tho), preferably managed by instance/community admins, and perhaps a few other measures just to be sure.
Sadly, none of this seems to be the case here.
Reddit loss prevention department is on the case ;)
Funny how you don’t change your language for your alts.
I dont know them. can only imagine reddit shilling is bothering a lot of good people
It’s damning that you always accuse your critics of being “Reddit agents” contrary to all evidence except that they criticized your undisclosed automated reposting, banning them from communities your alts moderate, deleting their comments, and reporting them for harassment.
Now that you’re using AI to write your comments, you might think no one can trace you across all your botting alts because your characteristic language errors are papered over, but you’re wrong.
In reality, most of your alts are already linked either by your direct admittance (mostly childish threats and impulsive chest-beating) or by accidental persona-hopping in various argument threads.
But even if you hadn’t already repeatedly exposed yourself, and even though you never disclose or mark any of your botting alts, and even if Lemmy weren’t a small town compared to Reddit where this type of abusiveness paid off…
Anyone who looks twice can tell it’s you, so give it a rest. I’m barely paying attention, and these are your alts that I’m aware of so far:@[email protected]
@[email protected]
@[email protected]
@[email protected]
@[email protected]
@[email protected]…et al. Others’ lists, including @[email protected]’s, are more complete than mine. So quit all this bad faith bullshit.
Now they’re engaging in blatant vote manipulation too.
Guess I’ll just pin this to the board with all his other Lemmy TOS violations
Interesting. I actually went through those accounts and the communities they moderate.
Meanwhile, you’re compiling lists of prolific contributors, tracking their activity, and trying to connect unrelated accounts. From where I’m standing, that looks suspiciously like an organized network of accounts targeting active posters.
I initially thought this was just a handful of weirdos with too much free time. But the more I see, the more I’m convinced there’s a deliberate effort to undermine Lemmy by harassing its most active contributors.
And who benefits when Lemmy loses content, activity, and users? Reddit, obviously.
You’re doing a remarkable job of reinforcing my suspicions.
oh yes I banned their accounts for brigading and shilling. There should be a way to tag subversives lemmy accounts permanently.Would do it again.
hey sieptimus @infosec.pub
Took me a moment to digest all that, thanks for the laughs. No relation whatsoever. I do, however, agree with OP that there seems to be something shady going on with these bans on Lemmy. does not appear incidental
you are not as intelligent as you think you are. this is the most blatant “i’m guilty and think I can win” comment i have ever seen. also your vote history is public.
The funny thing is that people do like your ai powered bot swarm taking popular content from Reddit and moving it to lemmy and if you created communities on instances that people who want organic content can block you’d be popular.
That you don’t just shows you’re trolling.
Oh, I know this game. I’m very familiar with these tactics.
- First, pressure community moderators into banning frequent posters.
- If that fails, push for an instance-level ban.
- If that doesn’t work, complain to the receiving instances and try to get them to ban those accounts.
- And when people move to a separate instance, suddenly the demand becomes defederation.
The goalposts just keep moving. It’s never really about finding a solution. It’s about getting rid of people who post content.
Who benefits - oh ya definitely reddit.
I’ve seen these tactics before, and I’m not falling for them.
It’s to make it easy for people to view organic lemmy content instead of the shit you spread.
And the people that enjoy mindlessly upvoting reposted reddit content can do it too.
Everyone wins.
Imagine banning people because they use other websites too
Oh no, no. That’s not what’s happening.
Those moderators are banning people who complain about Reddit reposts.
Why? Because some of those complaints are part of a deliberate harassment tactic. These people repeatedly target frequent posters and pester moderators, hoping to frustrate the mods enough that they eventually ban the very people keeping their communities active.
It’s a coordinated effort to undermine these communities from within, so I’m glad the moderators are finally taking action against those bad-faith complainants.
It’s your alt banning people.
I think whomever it is -they probably tried to just post normally and got banned many times through those reddit tactics and harrassed into creating own communities.
and now they know this reddit game and wont fall for bs
Imagine dragon.
