Im leaving my grandkids a very cleanly optimized starter base in Factorio.

Too exhausted to grab images but…

• The amount I spent on college versus the amount that they spent on college

• their pension versus my pension

• cost of their home versus cost of my home

• amount of adults in their household that had to work to support a family versus amount of adults in my household that have to work to support a family

• Their CEO pay gap versus my CEO pay gap

• number of summers where they took a week-long family vacation versus number of summers that I took a week-long family vacation

• cost of a family trip to Disney for them versus no fucking way I could even consider affording that shit, let alone paying an overall subscription for quicker lines and somehow also individual extra charges per ride to get on those rides in less than three hours.

Here’s a picture of the furniture my grandparents left me:

Confirmation bias: all the shite furniture from 1800s has rotted to dust already

Edit for full disclosure: I’ve exclusively bought antique furniture. I’m basically a shill for big-auction

If cheap furniture made by compressing glue and sawdust together existed 100 years ago, I bet it would have sold well.

Same goes for shoes. Everyone’s wearing terrible plastic stuff nowadays.
