Listen. Listen and make sure they know you hear them. Actively engage in thier interests. Be honest. Just don't bullshit them. Daughters know. Mine are 27 and 11 and those are my biggest missteps along the way.
Oh, also be wrong. Be wrong and accountable. And learn.
I couldn't possibly say.....
I've been living in coastal Southeastern Texas for 44 years. Im 46. In 2017 my county rezoned us as a flood zone because of the Havey flooding caused all the poor planning. An entire section of the state reclassified because "interstate highway" needed to be bigger.
They've been building the same 50ish miles for at least 27 years. All they've managed to do is ruin what was naturally occurring barriers and eroded our ability to maintain habitation. Or to expect a reasonable ability to protect against a disaster.
We're leaving 3.4 acres my grandfather bought in 1986, and gave my sister and I in 2007.
And that's just MY story. We had 375 neighbors in my area and at least 30% have moved on since 2017.
And that's just one coastal city, in one state, in one country, on one continent.
I don't have a lot of fantasy about humanities future.
That's only in the movies. In reality they just completely evaporate. Usually they just evaporate. They take up a lot of volume but aren't terribly filling.

US citizens be like: "It's fine with us, buchy'all needta keep all that over there!"
😀🤷♂️😅
Absolutely! When I was 20ish and new, yeah. But it hit me about 3years ago thats ALL I do professionally is automate as much as I can to make life easier for users and companies. Why am I not doing that for me?
On a side note, I'm seriously loving the immutable distributions. I'm thinking that's my new direction.
Sorry to rattle on lol
😀 I sure sound like it. Debian these days though. I'm too lazy for Arch anymore.
It was too far from the metal for me. But it is a great distribution. Especially if you're looking for fancy pants gaming ability or just turn-key ready to roll MS alternative.

I stopped using all social media that insists on taking control of my content a long while ago. History has taught us that the laws flow with, and follow the money. And Meta has a lot of it. Just don't use the products, and use these examples as to "why" you won't when pressed. It's gross that we are wanting to be a part of a product that isn't for us. Why would you want to exist in that, when it is such a difficult experience? I just can't wrap my head around it.
"Do you believe in god?"
No. That's for old fools with nothing to lose, and a full belly.
