Being a millennial is difficult, okay?
Our money doesn't stretch as far as that of our parents did, many of us are underemployed even with college degrees, lack health insurance and other benefits, carry way too much debt thanks to predatory lending practices, spend far too much time on Tinder and pray for the sweet release of death before the horrors of climate change whisk us away from this mortal coil.
But there's one single assessment of what millennial culture boils down to that is hilariously spot on.

@queenofyelling The sisterhood of traveling pants but with cash— Mahtab Sharifi (@Mahtab Sharifi) 1556173729.0
@queenofyelling Instead of the sisters of the traveling pants it’s the millennials of the traveling $20— rogz (@rogz) 1556224440.0

There are so many think pieces out there about what it means to be a millennial and those are all well and good, but this?
This makes us feel seen.
