I think millennials are having a factory reset.
Nobody wants their career. Nobody wants corporate culture. Nobody wants another fucking productivity app.
We just want a little house, some hobbies, financial security and to be left the fuck alone.
Apparently thatโs radical now.

Immigrants come to the United States without ever having to learn Black history and immediately side with white supremacy when Black people are the only reason they have rights!
Devastating news
๐จ: Fireflies are disappearing so fast that scientists think we are the last generation to see them.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Some firefly species face declines from habitat loss, light pollution and pesticides, but experts state we are not the last generation to see fireflies as common resilient species will persist.

Do you remember when radio stations used to give away concert tickets and backstage passes? | just heard a midday radio giveaway, and now the prizes are groceries, a year of gas, or rent paid. It's a strange reminder that survival has become the prize. That's pretty sad.

The word "slavery" is too small for what happened.
People were hunted, chained, branded, raped, tortured, sold, and worked to death. Families disappeared. Languages, names, and traditions were stripped away.
It was one of history's greatest crimes against humanity.๐

Love that celebrities are getting their fibroid stories out. Most recently Porsha. I also want to precaution women who donโt have access to personal fertility specialists that your experience will more than likely differ GREATLY. Scheduling the procedure alone may take MONTHS

Bob Mackie should be the subject of next yearโs Met Gala theme. A Costume Institute exhibition devoted to his extraordinary legacy in costume, celebrity fashion, performance, glamour, and theatricality would be long overdue. His work deserves to be experienced as fashion history, not just nostalgia.

As of September 12, 2026, Arthur Ashe is still the only Black American to reach the US Open Final since 1972.๐
It's more than just Ben Shelton's first US Open Final ๐ฅ

All due respect to Ben Shelton and not enough characters to *really* dissect it #onhere, but the โone-dropโ rule does an incredible disservice to the representation and historical achievements of actual full-blooded Black-Americans.

See how racism works?
They found out the lone holdout juror was Black and now they're digging up anything and everything from his past to discredit him.
That's some crazy work.
All for a white lady that killed 3 of her kids with an exercise band. ๐คฆ๐พโโ๏ธ

Marcy Borders - "Dust Lady" after escaping the North Tower of the World Trade Center on 9/11. She would die of cancer at age 42.
currently mourning the fact that, not only are people generally becoming more illiterate & less academically capable, but also:
-more cruel
-less respectful of the arts & humanities
-less curious
-less creative
-worse at understanding nuance / hypotheticals / abstract concepts
