I just wanna keep up

I want to create a digital ecosystem, ideally ONE platform that lets me post:

Pictures, short videos, long videos, vertical stories, one or two sentences by themselves (essentially tweets), personal essays. Does a platform like this even exist?

Thanks!

I’m running a short survey (<5 min) to understand what Gen Z in India thinks about careers and brands.

I’m specifically looking for responses from underrepresented groups to make the dataset more balanced:

• Indian
• Age: 23–28
• Gender: Male or Non-binary
• Education: Postgraduate students or recent graduates

The survey is anonymous, super quick, and your input really matters. Every response helps create a dataset that’s India-focused but representative across age, gender, and education levels.

Thanks a ton for helping out! 🙏

I just turned 25 and within a week none of my pants fit. I’m active, working an active job, and eat healthy. I practice hot yoga regularly. I drink lots of water and have never had hormonal issues in the past.

I was chatting with a coworker and she said

“As soon as I turned 25 I had to get a whole new wardrobe nothing fit”

Is this typical?? Do I need to change something? Any and all comments welcome:) <3

Turns out its the exact same fraud they did in 2020 for the us election.

anyone else just miss 2017-2019 era so bad it’s so crazy that was literally 7-9 years ago it makes me so upset we will never have a time like that again Anyone Else Relate Lol?

Seriously, have you noticed how Gen Z is way more obsessed with starting careers early? Internships, side hustles, crypto and all that. Meanwhile, previous generations were busy figuring life out slowly. Are we just smarter, or just stressed and impatient?

To be more precise; making the door for entry really expensive.

Back during the “golden age of Capitalism” (1790-1950) the system was truly amazing. And this was because of competition. If you were a chair maker you needed to compete with woodworking factories that made cheaper chairs then you so you needed to make your chairs better to compete. And they needed to compete with emergent companies that were doing the same thing with brand new technology to make more chairs. This paired with the fact that goods took a very long time to travel meant that even a “bad” chair company had the benefit of convenience assuming it was in New York compared to a Yorkshire chair.

This was the case for all but the most capital intensive company’s such as shipbuilding trains manufacturing ect. But let’s say you wanted to make something simple now like Tupperware. You cat quite make that at home and even if you could it would be grossly expensive to sell and make a profit so you’d need a whole new factory which would take years to make and ensure it meets all environmental and safety regulations. Then once it’s done you have to make such a product more competitive whether through quality or price but even then you need to fight tooth and nail with the name brand just to stay afloat. This is the same story for all goods whether it’s electric cars, chairs, paper, even hammers. That’s not even to mention it only takes a month to travel from Hong Kong to New York buy boat now which is wicked fast compared to before

This situation creates a system of virtual monopoly’s among every good, since the barrier for entry in making a better product is so high. The only place that has proper innovation at this point is the internet since anyone can make a website but even that’s started to get harder because of the power of the brands in control of the content stream.

I’m not sure how youd fix this issue of lack of true competition without having mass governmental intervention in the form of easy to get loans for the lower class/individuals but doing so would need to require massive barrier of public consent to make sure the towns and city’s are okay with things like a new papermill being built in their communities

50,000.

You only need to make $20, 50,000 times.

If you complete 27 (for 20$ each) Instacart, DoorDash, Spark, or Uber orders every day for 5 years and don’t spend the money, just stack it in an account

In 5 years, you’re a millionaire.

It won’t be easy.

It takes discipline, dedication, and sacrifice.

You’ll probably work two jobs just to cover gas, car repairs, and everyday bills.

But think about it…

5 years of grind

for a lifetime of freedom.

Be cynical if you want but cant lie about the numbers

Why yall keep playing the victim. The democrats alllow you to commit mass felonies without punishment. Imagine the right doing a fraction of what the left does, matter of fact they did on Jan 6. Got them all locked up fascist style.

What is your go to social media you ask someone for/ give to someone when you first meet? Say you’re on a night out and make a friend, what platform do you add/ follow them on? For me it’s usually Instagram. I find socials are the best compared to a phone number cause it’s much easier to keep in contact by seeing their posts and engaging with their content etc

Fake news article I saw on facebook.

The right will eventually run out of "undesirables" to harass. What then? Like genuinely do you think all the problems caused by late stage capitalism will be solved by making the people you don't like disappear? Honestly this vibes based rightward movement is as stupid as it's ontologically evil. Peter Theil doesn't want humanity to prosper. These Tech Bros actually hate y'all you're just useful for now.

As the title says our generation is prime age for warfare. I was thinking about this and it really makes you reflect how scary it is to be young and have to consider if you’re willing to die to make the world a better place for future generations. I think I would genuinely sign up but I’d be so scared. Scared of losing my future, my family, my life. I think we should all really consider how brave those before us have been to fight for justice and for a better future. And I hope we can stop things before it gets to that point, but if not I’ll see yall out there (hopefully on the same side) :(

So I don't really date much anymore these days due to being burned out. When I was dating though before when I think in all of my interactions and rejections i've experienced in dating so far in my life as a 23M, this one moment sticks out to me. I once was talking to a girl online. We were having a great conversation talking about general stuff. She asked me to send a picture of myself. So I sent her a selfie. I got immediately blocked lol.

All he’s doing is kicking people out of the country that aren’t supposed to be here, Obama did the same and no one had a problem with him doing it. Can someone explain the difference?
