I know the one. Nice staircase, but I'm not the target market for the over-50's disco night

Definite 'never progressed beyond their first year hot takes' mentality in some spaces, but I'd argue an engaged older high-schooler will often end up in similar political boats

dunno, this seems a pretty chill instance and your experience mostly matches mine. There are a few knobheads I see around though (I started adding user notes and it's amazing how any agro chat is always one of the same few accounts)

Couldn't agree with you more. In particular, the way most state pensions are structured imply infinite exponential growth. It's gonna be a tough drug to wean off of.
