🤣 Oh, the drama! Google's trying to keep up with #OpenAI like it's the latest TikTok trend, but instead of dancing, they're just tripping over their own feet. ⚡️ Who knew playing catch-up could look so much like a mid-life crisis? 🏃♂️💼

To paraphrase Helen Lewis from her weekly, whip-smart newsletter, Bluestocking: In Doppelganger, Naomi Klein’s book on Naomi Wolf, Klein suggests a kind of equation for formerly smart folks crossing over to the authoritarian right that goes something like this: Narcissism + Social media addiction + Midlife crisis ÷ Public shaming = Meltdown.

CW: Image description for "millennial mid-life crisis" comic by Cassandra Calin, posted by OP
4 panel cartoon by Cassandra Calin, titled "What a millennial's mid-life crisis looks like"
- A living room crowded with plants, with a person putting another plant onto the (also rather filled) window sill. The person looks quite content.
- A person carrying a box with a brand new air-fryer. They look very happy with their purchase.
- The same person running a half marathon. They look very exhausted, red in the face, and sweaty. Their legs are trembling from exertion. In the background amongst the cheering crowd, hand-held signs can be seen with "Let's Go!!!" and "Therapy was also an option".
- The final frame has the same person in bed telling their partner "Let's go to Japan!"
