@extradeadjcb posted recently that we are approaching a kind of genetic and thus cultural bottleneck. Generally normiecon and RW big family types vs lefty chucks, furries et al.
True but I think there’s a secondary selection at play and I hate it.

It’s not just those with kids who are making it through. Only the strong are making it through. We are in like serious Darwin hours.
How many people do you know, middle class married, maybe kids, where the wheels are dangerously close to coming off the whole thing for them?

Becky’s of problems they wouldn’t even have if we had a society that took itself seriously, if we had cohesion and morality and good social guard rails. Shame, ostracism, pride.
As I got to know my wife’s hometown I was SHOCKED by the adultery epidemic, ESPECIALLY among boomers.

No cheating I know of among my friends but it still feels like most are hanging on by their fingernails (not all, some are killing it) and I don’t just mean financially, though that’s often the case…
One family - Immature dad. Wife trying to work and mother. Living outside their means, should downsize their house but want to upsize “for the kids” instead.

Just watched another family get absolutely put through the wood chipper with a total bullshit CPS case instigated by a literally evil druggie molesting ex-brother in law. Gender bending shot involves there too. Intergenerational family bonds were snapped.
Credit card debt too…

Another depressed wife, confiding to my wife she might want to leave her hardworking and good-to-her husband. Great dad.
Another couple teetering on divorce for years, riding it out for their kid, God bless them.

Overworked wife with porn addicted husband. Good guy not a deadbeat, good dad, good husband, money maker, just has that game and fap escapism addiction.
Etc etc.

You get the idea. And you can imagine the specific pitfalls and you also know where the social guard rails for each of them USED to be.
These are all good people. It’s just like our lives are lived treading water in a vat of poison or corrosive acid.

Trying to be a lifeline or confidant for any of these is a challenge, trying to help everyone is basically impossible though we are trying.

It shouldn’t be like this.
