  1. just got off the phone with dad where he tried to bait me into trashing my oldest brother in his job search. no thanks, dad.

    i don't really get along with my oldest brother, but i'm not about to join my dad on trash-talking him.

    dad hasn't worked in 15 years and was butthurt that my brother didn't ask him to review his resume.

    "but when i worked, people always came to me and asked me to review their resumes!" cool story, dad.

    i told him not to take it personally and he said "i never take things personally!"

    shortly afterwards he said "well, i've gotta go. goodbye." 🙄

    note: when i was job-hunting recently, i didn't send my resume to my dad because he loves to give extremely nitpicky comments as if it's advice from on-high. BUT, my *mom* asked to see my resume, which i thought was weird, and later it turned out that she SECRETLY sent my resume to my dad and then made me read his comments.

    my parents: what a jolly pair! and people wonder why i have trouble trusting people!

  6. You know, the bonehead #oligarch CEOs have, to a degree, done it to themselves. But my #boomers, Xers and Zs, imagine if we had been better? Imagine if we had not glazed #Microsoft and been #Apple fan puppets? What if our generations had not been so credulous? #AI #LLM #ChatGPT #Antrhopic #Nvidia

    Now all of Canada can endure the #genx life experience, which is basically being ruled by self centred narcissistic #boomers who sellout, propagandize, lie and constantly exaggerate to get everything they ever wanted.

    Carney is a dinosaur, soon to be extinct. Sadly, his #neoliberal austerity ideologies and #dirtyoil #pipelines will plague #Canada as well as these pitifully loyal yet ethically shortsighted #Liberals for generations to come.

    Liberals will bear this albatross long after Mark Carney has retreated to his comfy billionaire bunker. We will remember the #SouthernOrcas they willfully sacrificed.

    Here's another interesting article in the #SFChronicle today.

    **A historic transfer of wealth will be centered in the Bay Area. It may not look like you expect**

    sfchronicle.com/projects/2026/

    This article is about the anticipated wealth transfer from Boomers (like me, who currently range in age from 62 to 80) to their family members (&/or to charities) after they die.

    I'm generation skipping because my son turned out to be an ungrateful SOB. So, I currently plan to transfer all of my $/assets to my 2 grandchildren but, if they turn out to be ungrateful SOBs too, I'll give it all to charity.

    I don't feel like I owe any of them anything & I don't want them to know how much $ they're likely to receive, which is in 7 figures, because I don't want that knowleldge to affect how they relate & treat me before I die.

    All I'd like to get some unsolicited attention & respect from them as their grandfather &, if I get that, they'll get the $. Otherwise not!

    We'll see . . .

    >> It wasn't #Zuck and #Musk who got #Reagan into the White House – The US #boomers set the scene for the #techBros by voting for deregulation of pretty much everything.

    This is so far off!

    Don't forget that between Reagan and #Trump there were multiple #Democratic prez who each served multiple terms.

    Problem is not with the electorate (boomer or not) but with #billionaires and billionaires alone who control #Republicans, #Democrats, and #SCOTUS
