I feel like gen z caught the full destruction of 3rd spaces that melenials still caught the tail end of.
I'd love a community space to share my knowledge of pre-zuck-thiel tech with. I feel like the complete destruction of 3rd spaces are part of why there is such poor knowledge xfer between z and millennials
If you have a Hacker/Makerspace near you, you might want to check that out.
it's not community spaces dude.
it's that going out was CHEAP.
i could go out in 2006 with my friends on a friday night for $20. hell 10 years ago i could go out for $50 or so.
now going out on a friday night costs you closer to $200. that's not possible for a college kid, unless that college kid has mommy and daddy's credit card.
the COL basically means unless you have lots of money, you can't ever go out anymore. a fucking movie ticket is 20-25 dollars now. I used to see movies for 3-5 bucks when I was young.
the value of the dollar has collapsed.
