re: Why has western culture declined both here and abroad?
Posted by SonOfMike on 1/7/23 at 9:25 am
I would guess “Western Culture” is defined by everyone differently, but I think about individual and personal freedoms. Some freedoms are being taken away (abortion rights, firearm rights), some are being expanded (removal of marijuana laws) but overall, I feel like we’re still fairly free to make choices at the individual level.

Yes, I never hated it before Covid started, but even working for a Fortune 50 company and making $220k, the stress became unmanageable. Took a role for a smaller start up and while the stress isn't completely gone, it's much more manageable and still making bank.

They’re just diverting our attention to one another vs themselves. It’s working brilliantly.

No, not that I remember. We lived in the sticks.
Me: I go to happy hour once a week with my local friends group to really talk about work. I rarely drink at home or In front of the kids.

These pay grades are very low. I would just tell you to find something that pays more than the poverty line.

I don’t think you guys understand what’s going on in Austin right now. There is more talent pouring in than ever before. Every weekend the entire city turns into an adult play ground. This is just the beginning

Get out, might be the best decision of your life. For it to work, both of you would need to be trying really hard to fix the communication issues.
