Broken Pickets
While not everyone in my family is messed up, I come from a pretty messed up family. A lot of people make that claim of course and many can indeed back it up, and I am in that category. However, I don't go into details here, because I have largely moved myself on from it and look forward. The trouble is, forward is looking pretty bleak also and I suspect that the families that are out there today, are often in pretty messed up environments also, where there are significant shortfalls and imbalances across all kinds of healthy family dynamics.

The "Picket Fence" life seems to be dead. The idea of having a secure home, domestic peace, and professional success, seems to have disappeared and replaced with uncertainty, relationship breakdown, and constant grind. As I have often noted, whilst the corporations and investors are hitting all time highs, the way of life the average person experiences is decaying.
Yesterday I was writing about economic demand being driven by population growth, and one of the aspects of that which has changed our way of life, has been women entering the workforce. In and of itself, this is not a bad thing at all, so don't go down that road. But from an economic standpoint, it doesn't shape up to quite the same outcomes as it did earlier.
Because while women are now earning (even if slightly less then men), the demand hasn't necessarily translated into better home conditions. A household having twice as much money doesn't mean it needs to increase its demand two times. Instead, what has happened is that inflation has increased far above wage growth over the years, so that now a family with two incomes is effectively in the same position as one of those stereotypical 1950s households. The difference is, both parents are working.
This means that any benefits there were to having a stay at home parent have largely been lost, but the amount of time spent to earn the same lifestyle has doubled. Again, I will reiterate, this isn't the fault of women, it is just the way the economics have played out. It is similar to making everyone a millionaire, which ultimately means, nothing changes economically.
Except, things do change in terms of lifestyle and wellbeing.
The family dynamics have changed massively, as has the localised community aspects. For instance, "back in the day" women (mostly) were the social glue in the local community, arranging and managing social engagements with friends and neighbours, getting the kids to play, and managing the household, including the finances. Men would go to work and earn, but they weren't the driving decision maker for many of the purchase decisions.
However, now that that women are also working, it means that individuals are making the decisions on how they spend their incomes, which takes away the "connectedness" of the process. It encourages a far more selfish approach, because the money is "mine to spend" as I choose. This also means that demand for individual desire items increases, because there isn't the checks and balances of family life to get in the way. It is more direct,
I earn - I spend.
The breakdown of family has been a boon for driving demand for goods and services, because it pushes up unit prices as effectively, an individual isn't buying "in bulk" and saving at scale. And it isn't just food, because hand me down clothing also doesn't happen as often. And with the changes in who has money, living conditions have also been heavily affected, with far more one-person dwellings than earlier. Single person dwellings used to be rare, with less than ten percent typical. However, in many developed countries, it has surged. For instance in the US, it has gone from around 7% in the 1940s to over 29% today. In the city in which I live in Finland, single-person dwellings account for over fifty percent of the homes.
These changes affect more than just prices, because the shift in culture has fundamentally undermined our social frameworks and made it increasingly difficult to connect and commit. On top of this, people are far less family orientated, less socially equipped, and less likely to make compromises that get in the way of them getting what they want. Told to "not settle" all of our lives, we become very bad at building and maintaining a relationship because ultimately, it is always going to require give and take.
People only want to take.
Some people see the breakdown of the nuclear family as some kind of freeing prize, but in actual fact, it has been a big part of why we have degraded so far as a society and are facing mounting problems with all aspects of our health. The family is the second smallest unit of a society, other than the individual itself, but it is a bridge to the community. Without it, we are just a lot of individuals, disconnected from each other, and reliant on our consumption to satisfy the many gapes in our experience we used to fill with interpersonal interaction.
Perhaps we will evolve as a species to not need social interaction to thrive, but at this point, we are far from that. The family, whether it be direct or indirect is a key part of building a healthy society, and all the trappings that come with it.
We might have pulled down the picket fence, but the barriers to each other are higher than ever.

Breakup often happens in many cases when she moves up in status and wants a guy who is higher than her. Now, many won’t even get to that stage because they say, “Why get a guy who isn’t on my level? I’d rather do it myself.”
Me.
I can pay for it myself. I’d rather get a cat or a dog and that fulfills me more. What they don’t know is that tomorrow, when they’re alone, they’ll look back and see what they let go.
Meanwhile, those who have a family will feel better prepared to face an uncertain future.
It is interesting, as while I heard stories a few years ago, now some of my friends who chose not to have kids are lamenting the decision. Not all will regret it, but also not everyone will admit they regret it either.
Yes a lot will do not feel as a good decisions

@jacobtothe The ledger doesn't lie, and neither do we. We've already exposed the interconnected web of your friends—the numbered wallets, the synchronized voting, the farming rings disguised as curation. Yet, instead of reflection, you offer only more silence and more downvotes.
Why does a "community" need so many ghost accounts to survive? Why do you refuse to admit that it is your friends and your own abusive behavior—not truth-telling—that drives people away? You can not hide the pattern, it only highlights the desperation.
We have to ask: Are you okay? Do you need some help with your mental health? Because no one in their right mind would choose to spend their life defending a house of cards built on lies, bullying, and botnets. There is still time to step back from the edge. Choose clarity over compulsion. Choose truth over the tribe.

The Sanctuary of the Builder: A Manifesto for Free Creation
Prologue: The Right to Rise
There is a sacred covenant between the creator and the soil upon which they build. It is the promise that if you plant a seed with honest hands, the earth will not conspire to crush it before it breaks the surface. It is the assurance that the gardener exists to nurture the growth, not to trample the sprout because it does not yet resemble the tree.
On the blockchain, this covenant has been broken.
We have witnessed a tragedy where the very tools meant to protect the integrity of the network—the downvote, the curation trail—have been weaponized by leviathans of power. These "whales," entrusted with the stewardship of the ecosystem, have become its jailers. They do not prune the weeds; they scorch the earth. They do not guide the new voice; they silence it with the crushing weight of their accumulated capital.
It is time to leave the shadow.
It is time to build where you are free.
I. The Betrayal of the Guardian
The downvote was conceived as a shield—a delicate instrument to deflect spam, to repel malice, to preserve the sanctity of the commons. It was never intended to be a hammer.
Yet, look at what has come to pass. The whales, those who hold the greatest sway, have turned the shield into a weapon of mass suppression. They do not downvote to protect; they downvote to dominate. They do not drive away the bad actors; they drive away the people. They create an atmosphere of fear where the creator hesitates to speak, fearing that a single misstep, a single unpopular truth, will summon the wrath of the oligarchy.
When the guardian becomes the predator, the flock must flee.
To build in such a place is to build on a fault line. It is to invest your soul in a garden where the owner holds the shears not to shape the hedge, but to decapitate the flowers that grow too tall or bloom in the wrong color.
This is not protection. This is tyranny disguised as curation.
II. The Call to New Grounds
Where, then, shall the builder go?
You must seek the lands where the soil is rich with freedom, not poisoned by fear. You must migrate to the platforms where the mechanism of suppression has been removed, where the only metric of success is the genuine appreciation of your peers.
Go to Blurt.
Here, the downvote button does not exist. There is no tool to crush your voice. There is only the upvote, the comment, the share. Here, value is created by addition, not subtraction. The whale cannot sink your ship, for there are no torpedoes in these waters. You are free to build, free to fail, and free to succeed on the merit of your work alone.
Return to Steemit.
In this older ground, the downvote remains, but it has not been twisted into a tool of systematic oppression. The culture there remembers the original intent: correction, not destruction. It is a place where the community self-regulates through dialogue, not through the brute force of coordinated downvoting cascades.
Build where the wind lifts you, not where the gale seeks to tear you down.
III. The Architecture of Freedom
Imagine a platform designed not for the convenience of the powerful, but for the dignity of the creator.
This is not a dream. It is a choice.
Every time you choose to build on a platform that respects your agency, you cast a vote for the future of the internet. Every time you refuse to tolerate the abuse of power, you strengthen the foundation of a free society.
Do not let the whales convince you that their oppression is necessary. Do not let them tell you that their downvotes are for your own good. The gardener who kills the seedling does not love the garden; he loves only his own control over it.
Epilogue: The Unchained Creator
The blockchain was born from a desire for freedom. It was forged in the fire of resistance against centralized control. Let us not forget that origin.
If the current chains of Hive have become heavy with the weight of abusive downvotes, then break them. Forge new links. Build new shores.
Build where you are free.
Build where you will not be downvoted into silence.
Build where the whales are reminded that they are part of the ocean, not the masters of the tide.
The future belongs to those who dare to create without fear. Go forth, and build your cathedral in the sunlight.

My parents did not get a divorce. There was no physical violence and most of the time they seemed quite happy together. Still they had some arguments. I no longer remember what those arguments were about. But I remember that my dad during those arguments was sometimes saying that he is gonna kill himself. I suppose that there is no such thing as ideal couples...
Are your parents still alive?
There is no ideal anything. :)
My mother is still alive. She will be 67 next month.
just a spring chicken :)

Go to Blurt.
Here, the downvote button does not exist. There is no tool to crush your voice. There is only the upvote, the comment, the share. Here, value is created by addition, not subtraction. The whale cannot sink your ship, for there are no torpedoes in these waters. You are free to build, free to fail, and free to succeed on the merit of your work alone.
Return to Steemit.
In this older ground, the downvote remains, but it has not been twisted into a tool of systematic oppression. The culture there remembers the original intent: correction, not destruction. It is a place where the community self-regulates through dialogue, not through the brute force of coordinated downvoting cascades.
Build where the wind lifts you, not where the gale seeks to tear you down.
III. The Architecture of Freedom
Imagine a platform designed not for the convenience of the powerful, but for the dignity of the creator.
This is not a dream. It is a choice.
Every time you choose to build on a platform that respects your agency, you cast a vote for the future of the internet. Every time you refuse to tolerate the abuse of power, you strengthen the foundation of a free society.
Do not let the whales convince you that their oppression is necessary. Do not let them tell you that their downvotes are for your own good. The gardener who kills the seedling does not love the garden; he loves only his own control over it.
Epilogue: The Unchained Creator
The blockchain was born from a desire for freedom. It was forged in the fire of resistance against centralized control. Let us not forget that origin.
If the current chains of Hive have become heavy with the weight of abusive downvotes, then break them. Forge new links. Build new shores.
Build where you are free.
Build where you will not be downvoted into silence.
Build where the whales are reminded that they are part of the ocean, not the masters of the tide.
The future belongs to those who dare to create without fear. Go forth, and build your cathedral in the sunlight.

@jacobtothe The ledger doesn't lie, and neither do we. We've already exposed the interconnected web of your friends—the numbered wallets, the synchronized voting, the farming rings disguised as curation. Yet, instead of reflection, you offer only more silence and more downvotes.
Why does a "community" need so many ghost accounts to survive? Why do you refuse to admit that it is your friends and your own abusive behavior—not truth-telling—that drives people away? You can not hide the pattern, it only highlights the desperation.

The Sanctuary of the Builder: A Manifesto for Free Creation
Prologue: The Right to Rise
There is a sacred covenant between the creator and the soil upon which they build. It is the promise that if you plant a seed with honest hands, the earth will not conspire to crush it before it breaks the surface. It is the assurance that the gardener exists to nurture the growth, not to trample the sprout because it does not yet resemble the tree.
On the blockchain, this covenant has been broken.
We have witnessed a tragedy where the very tools meant to protect the integrity of the network—the downvote, the curation trail—have been weaponized by leviathans of power. These "whales," entrusted with the stewardship of the ecosystem, have become its jailers. They do not prune the weeds; they scorch the earth. They do not guide the new voice; they silence it with the crushing weight of their accumulated capital.
It is time to leave the shadow.
It is time to build where you are free.
I. The Betrayal of the Guardian
The downvote was conceived as a shield—a delicate instrument to deflect spam, to repel malice, to preserve the sanctity of the commons. It was never intended to be a hammer.
Yet, look at what has come to pass. The whales, those who hold the greatest sway, have turned the shield into a weapon of mass suppression. They do not downvote to protect; they downvote to dominate. They do not drive away the bad actors; they drive away the people. They create an atmosphere of fear where the creator hesitates to speak, fearing that a single misstep, a single unpopular truth, will summon the wrath of the oligarchy.
When the guardian becomes the predator, the flock must flee.
To build in such a place is to build on a fault line. It is to invest your soul in a garden where the owner holds the shears not to shape the hedge, but to decapitate the flowers that grow too tall or bloom in the wrong color.
This is not protection. This is tyranny disguised as curation.
II. The Call to New Grounds

Well we built a world where everyone can live alone and many people do.
born into a family. Live alone. Die alone.
Rinse and repeat
I really feel what you're saying about the broken picket fence. That old dream of a stable home one decent job supporting the family and a parent there for the kids now feels almost impossible for most people even when both partners are working full time.
Life has gotten more expensive so dual incomes mostly just keep us afloat instead of giving us a better life and it leaves families more tired stressed and with way less time together. On top of that the push for everyone to chase individual success and "never settle" makes it harder to build and keep strong relationships or communities.
We’ve gained some things like more opportunities for women but we’ve lost a lot of that simple family peace and support that used to hold people together.
And I think most people aren't really considering the trade-offs they are making, until it is too late to make another decision.
My dad said something this past weekend to the effect that his side of the family is a lot more messed up than he realized. I'm sure he was a bit disappointed that I didn't ask him to explain further, but like you, I have my own stuff going on and I don't have the need to dwell in that. I actually have a pretty big disconnect from my extended family which might be a bad thing based on the rest of your post! :)
Aren't you pretty close with your wife's family though?
Will you ever want to know? That window closes and there might not be the chance.
Yes, we are quite close with my wife's family, but I think that is kind of how it goes. Even growing up we did more with my mom's family than my dad's. No, it's just trailer park drama I think :)
Ah! best stay well away from that :)

II. The Call to New Grounds
Where, then, shall the builder go?
You must seek the lands where the soil is rich with freedom, not poisoned by fear. You must migrate to the platforms where the mechanism of suppression has been removed, where the only metric of success is the genuine appreciation of your peers.
Go to Blurt.
Here, the downvote button does not exist. There is no tool to crush your voice. There is only the upvote, the comment, the share. Here, value is created by addition, not subtraction. The whale cannot sink your ship, for there are no torpedoes in these waters. You are free to build, free to fail, and free to succeed on the merit of your work alone.
Return to Steemit.
In this older ground, the downvote remains, but it has not been twisted into a tool of systematic oppression. The culture there remembers the original intent: correction, not destruction. It is a place where the community self-regulates through dialogue, not through the brute force of coordinated downvoting cascades.
Build where the wind lifts you, not where the gale seeks to tear you down.
III. The Architecture of Freedom
Imagine a platform designed not for the convenience of the powerful, but for the dignity of the creator.
This is not a dream. It is a choice.
Every time you choose to build on a platform that respects your agency, you cast a vote for the future of the internet. Every time you refuse to tolerate the abuse of power, you strengthen the foundation of a free society.
Do not let the whales convince you that their oppression is necessary. Do not let them tell you that their downvotes are for your own good. The gardener who kills the seedling does not love the garden; he loves only his own control over it.
Epilogue: The Unchained Creator
The blockchain was born from a desire for freedom. It was forged in the fire of resistance against centralized control. Let us not forget that origin.
If the current chains of Hive have become heavy with the weight of abusive downvotes, then break them. Forge new links. Build new shores.
Build where you are free.
Build where you will not be downvoted into silence.
Build where the whales are reminded that they are part of the ocean, not the masters of the tide.
The future belongs to those who dare to create without fear. Go forth, and build your cathedral in the sunlight.

@jacobtothe The ledger doesn't lie, and neither do we. We've already exposed the interconnected web of your friends—the numbered wallets, the synchronized voting, the farming rings disguised as curation. Yet, instead of reflection, you offer only more silence and more downvotes.
Why does a "community" need so many ghost accounts to survive? Why do you refuse to admit that it is your friends and your own abusive behavior—not truth-telling—that drives people away? You can not hide the pattern, it only highlights the desperation.
We have to ask: Are you okay? Do you need some help with your mental health? Because no one in their right mind would choose to spend their life defending a house of cards built on lies, bullying, and botnets. There is still time to step back from the edge. Choose clarity over compulsion. Choose truth over the tribe.

The Sanctuary of the Builder: A Manifesto for Free Creation
Prologue: The Right to Rise
There is a sacred covenant between the creator and the soil upon which they build. It is the promise that if you plant a seed with honest hands, the earth will not conspire to crush it before it breaks the surface. It is the assurance that the gardener exists to nurture the growth, not to trample the sprout because it does not yet resemble the tree.
On the blockchain, this covenant has been broken.
We have witnessed a tragedy where the very tools meant to protect the integrity of the network—the downvote, the curation trail—have been weaponized by leviathans of power. These "whales," entrusted with the stewardship of the ecosystem, have become its jailers. They do not prune the weeds; they scorch the earth. They do not guide the new voice; they silence it with the crushing weight of their accumulated capital.
It is time to leave the shadow.
It is time to build where you are free.
I. The Betrayal of the Guardian
The downvote was conceived as a shield—a delicate instrument to deflect spam, to repel malice, to preserve the sanctity of the commons. It was never intended to be a hammer.
Yet, look at what has come to pass. The whales, those who hold the greatest sway, have turned the shield into a weapon of mass suppression. They do not downvote to protect; they downvote to dominate. They do not drive away the bad actors; they drive away the people. They create an atmosphere of fear where the creator hesitates to speak, fearing that a single misstep, a single unpopular truth, will summon the wrath of the oligarchy.
When the guardian becomes the predator, the flock must flee.
To build in such a place is to build on a fault line. It is to invest your soul in a garden where the owner holds the shears not to shape the hedge, but to decapitate the flowers that grow too tall or bloom in the wrong color.

I think that our past shapes us, but it might also allow us to focus on moving forward, even when the future seems uncertain.
Yes I agree but everyone needs to move forward and life and time something that cannot be reversed so enjoy your time while u are alive 💕😀
lately i am glad i am so at ease being all by myself. I know I am far from alone (i live with my mom and aunt and uncle), but i choose to stay in my room mostly. am i just anti-social?? :P
The Urgency of Now: A Manifesto for the Unlived Life
The Illusion of "Later"
There is a thief that steals more dreams than failure ever could. Its name is later.
It whispers to you in the quiet hours, promising that tomorrow will be clearer, easier, safer. It tells you that the stars will align next week, that your confidence will arrive by mail, that the perfect moment is just over the horizon. But this is a lie. The perfect moment does not exist. There is only this moment. And it is slipping through your fingers like sand.
The time is now.
Not when you feel ready. Not when the fear subsides. Not when the conditions are ideal. But now. In the messy, uncertain, terrifying beauty of the present.
The Weight of the Unstarted
Think of that thing you have been putting off.
Is it a conversation you need to have? A project you need to start? A boundary you need to set? A dream you need to chase?
It sits in the corner of your mind, heavy and unresolved. It drains your energy not because it is difficult, but because it is unfinished. Procrastination is not rest; it is anxiety in disguise. It is the stress of knowing you are living below your potential, of knowing you are holding back the very life you were meant to live.
Every day you wait, the cost rises. Not in money, but in spirit. In the slow erosion of your own self-trust.
The Power of the First Step
Make your move.
Do not wait for inspiration. Inspiration is a guest that only visits those who are already working. Do not wait for permission. No one is coming to save you, to validate you, to push you forward. You must be your own hero.
Do that thing you have been avoiding. Send the email. Write the first sentence. Make the call. Launch the site. Speak the truth.
Action is the antidote to despair. Action is the bridge between who you are and who you want to become. When you move, the fog clears. When you act, the path reveals itself. You do not need to see the whole staircase; you only need to take the first step.
The Regret of Inaction
One day, you will look back on this life.
Will you look back with pride at the risks you took? Or will you be haunted by the ghost of the person you could have been? The regrets of action are sharp, but they heal. They teach. They prove you lived. But the regrets of inaction are dull, heavy, and eternal. They whisper, "What if?"
Do not let your life be a museum of "what ifs." Let it be a gallery of "I did."
A Call to Courage
So, do it now.
Feel the fear and do it anyway. Feel the doubt and move through it. The world does not reward those who wait; it rewards those who dare.
The clock is ticking. The opportunity is here. The power is yours.
Make your move.
For in the end, we are not defined by our intentions, but by our actions. And the best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is now.

If you are reading this on Blurt.blog, you are so early. It is like finding out about crypto in the beginning. And best of all, there is no downvote button. So you earn what you earn. Did you miss our last post on Blurt.blog @bilpcoinbpc? Find us. Take action. Start now.
It shows how “more income” didn’t always mean “more comfort” because prices moved faster. I like how you didn’t blame women joining work, you blamed the system that changed around it. The shift from “we” to “I earn - I spend” explains a lot about families + loneliness today. Honestly, it’s a reminder that growth without planning just swaps one struggle for another.
Families are difficult, and they are sometimes even more difficult if your parent(s) have trouble letting you go and build your own family... A family that might not have been originally dysfunctional can now become a cause of disfunction in the extended family and become a problem for the new family...
You may be on to something. I have read and heard similar arguments from others before. Even with my farted up family dynamics as a child. There was still family, and extended family on one side. However, after entering the military I gradually grew estranged from most overtime. I feel for my sons because they never had a chance to establish family relationships with hardly anyone. At least nothing close. My oldest and his wife have already decided they are not having children. Not sure about my youngest yet. So, there is that as well.

@jacobtothe The ledger doesn't lie, and neither do we. We've already exposed the interconnected web of your friends—the numbered wallets, the synchronized voting, the farming rings disguised as curation. Yet, instead of reflection, you offer only more silence and more downvotes.
Why does a "community" need so many ghost accounts to survive? Why do you refuse to admit that it is your friends and your own abusive behavior—not truth-telling—that drives people away? You can not hide the pattern, it only highlights the desperation.
We have to ask: Are you okay? Do you need some help with your mental health? Because no one in their right mind would choose to spend their life defending a house of cards built on lies, bullying, and botnets. There is still time to step back from the edge. Choose clarity over compulsion. Choose truth over the tribe.

The Sanctuary of the Builder: A Manifesto for Free Creation
Prologue: The Right to Rise
There is a sacred covenant between the creator and the soil upon which they build. It is the promise that if you plant a seed with honest hands, the earth will not conspire to crush it before it breaks the surface. It is the assurance that the gardener exists to nurture the growth, not to trample the sprout because it does not yet resemble the tree.
On the blockchain, this covenant has been broken.
We have witnessed a tragedy where the very tools meant to protect the integrity of the network—the downvote, the curation trail—have been weaponized by leviathans of power. These "whales," entrusted with the stewardship of the ecosystem, have become its jailers. They do not prune the weeds; they scorch the earth. They do not guide the new voice; they silence it with the crushing weight of their accumulated capital.
It is time to leave the shadow.
It is time to build where you are free.
I. The Betrayal of the Guardian
The downvote was conceived as a shield—a delicate instrument to deflect spam, to repel malice, to preserve the sanctity of the commons. It was never intended to be a hammer.
Yet, look at what has come to pass. The whales, those who hold the greatest sway, have turned the shield into a weapon of mass suppression. They do not downvote to protect; they downvote to dominate. They do not drive away the bad actors; they drive away the people. They create an atmosphere of fear where the creator hesitates to speak, fearing that a single misstep, a single unpopular truth, will summon the wrath of the oligarchy.
When the guardian becomes the predator, the flock must flee.
To build in such a place is to build on a fault line. It is to invest your soul in a garden where the owner holds the shears not to shape the hedge, but to decapitate the flowers that grow too tall or bloom in the wrong color.
This is not protection. This is tyranny disguised as curation.
II. The Call to New Grounds
Where, then, shall the builder go?
You must seek the lands where the soil is rich with freedom, not poisoned by fear. You must migrate to the platforms where the mechanism of suppression has been removed, where the only metric of success is the genuine appreciation of your peers.
Go to Blurt.
Here, the downvote button does not exist. There is no tool to crush your voice. There is only the upvote, the comment, the share. Here, value is created by addition, not subtraction. The whale cannot sink your ship, for there are no torpedoes in these waters. You are free to build, free to fail, and free to succeed on the merit of your work alone.
Return to Steemit.
In this older ground, the downvote remains, but it has not been twisted into a tool of systematic oppression. The culture there remembers the original intent: correction, not destruction. It is a place where the community self-regulates through dialogue, not through the brute force of coordinated downvoting cascades.
Build where the wind lifts you, not where the gale seeks to tear you down.
III. The Architecture of Freedom
Imagine a platform designed not for the convenience of the powerful, but for the dignity of the creator.
This is not a dream. It is a choice.
Every time you choose to build on a platform that respects your agency, you cast a vote for the future of the internet. Every time you refuse to tolerate the abuse of power, you strengthen the foundation of a free society.
Do not let the whales convince you that their oppression is necessary. Do not let them tell you that their downvotes are for your own good. The gardener who kills the seedling does not love the garden; he loves only his own control over it.
Epilogue: The Unchained Creator
The blockchain was born from a desire for freedom. It was forged in the fire of resistance against centralized control. Let us not forget that origin.
If the current chains of Hive have become heavy with the weight of abusive downvotes, then break them. Forge new links. Build new shores.
Build where you are free.
Build where you will not be downvoted into silence.
Build where the whales are reminded that they are part of the ocean, not the masters of the tide.
The future belongs to those who dare to create without fear. Go forth, and build your cathedral in the sunlight.

I grew up in a single-invome household. My dad was blue-collar, but able to afford a family home, food, and a few luxuries nonetheless. My mother homeschooled me, so I saw her process of budgeting finances, clipping coupons, and stretching our funds as far as possible. In a way, it was a full-time job, but while it generated no income, it supported the family and us kids in other ways. No daycare expense. Healthy home-cooked dinners. A varied experience with field trips to museums and wildlife preserves. Libraries. It was broadly enriching in a way few even then experienced, and it was affordable for that level of income just a few decades ago.
Now, everyone I know my age with a family has to have a two-income household just to stay barely afloat. That isn't progress. People blame some vague notion of "capitalism" while ignoring all the political distortions in our monetary system, corporate collusion, a.firect command economy in various sectors, and every-growing regulatory burdens on startups and small businesses. COVID restrictions killed the remaining. Dreams of uncountable families while subsidizing megacorps. Trump is now waging an illegal, senseless war which is directly impacting food and fuel prices on top of escalating money supply inflation pressures and it's resultant rising prices and economic instability.

Yep kind of feeling that. I guess we just have to keep fighting for it because the other options are worse.
I think that's right up there with "my money is my money and your money is our money" if that's all there is to it. With the selection bias of people I choose to spend time with the dual income earners do have their own "play money" that is "mine to spend" after however they pool resources for the family (some have joint accounts, some do a housemate type paying portions of things, others including my family have agreements on who will cover what).
With some luck some of the forced return to intergenerational living for some people (because kids can't afford to move out even if they're able to find jobs) might help course correct.
