Don’t worry, we’re working on making the earth look WAY shittier so you can work your 9-5 without worrying about missing out on anything.
65???
Look at Richie McMoneybags over here living in his Socialist utopia where he doesn’t have to keep working until he keels over dead on the clock.
9-5? More like 8-5 at a minimum wherever I’ve been at.
9-5 is a dream.
Doing the bare minimum of responsibilities/hygiene my weekdays are 7am-630pm so once I’m settled I get maybe 2-3 hours to eat and do something fun. Assuming there isn’t anything I need to do around the house.
Also those leisure hours are “fun” while I mentally prepare for the next day’s beatings.
Saturday is a burner day to recover, Sunday is all chores and errands to get ready for the next 5 days.
It sure is grim when I type all that out.
Until 65? Good luck with that.
67 for most now until they increase it again or worse, and dangling the extras if you stay until 70.
Many won’t be able to go to places like this at that point, neither physically or financially, and it might even be gone due to climate. I can think of many fixes to this system, but none work because they would go against the way things work, and the machine must keep rolling.
Yup.
Mom just retired at 70. On her feet working for society for 50 years. Now she hobbles around home with the help of a walker. She’ll spend the last 5-10 years of her life hanging out at home, with her only trips being to the doctor’s office.
Because this is all a scam to burn the lives of average people so the wealthy can live better than any kings from antiquity ever did.
And our fates will be the same, or worse, if we don’t eat these motherfuckers.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t want to live that long. Whenever the time feels right, I want to “retire” with whatever savings I might have, and ride it out until going out on my own terms. When that time feels right, I don’t know, but it’ll come.
I’m on that mixing heroin into my daily life in my 60s retirement plan. If I make it that long. To quote AJJ, “I smoke like a fucking chimney, I declare war on my body!”
I’ll punch my ticket when I’m done.
I’m very anti-work, but one night in that environment with no shelter and food and I’d be dreaming of an office space. That being said, there is definitely a better world somewhere between working 50-80hours a week and sleeping outside with no shelter or food.
I don’t think the post is implying a desire to live in nature, but rather expressing the inability to ever visit because of work
Why wouldn’t you have shelter or food? Emergency shelter takes an hour to build if you’ve never done that before and as long as you can tie a knot and find both woods and stone you can have a reasonably durable shelter in a week.
Food is even easier as long as you did literally any outdoors skills as a kid. While the picture suggests a landscape a bit north and a bit alpine, fish, berries, root vegetables and/or tree nuts will be available to you all year.
Take a survival and foraging course. A couple weekends of education will save your life when capitalism inevitably collapses.

In Sweden it’s 62-65.
Yes. So your boss and enjoy the view.
You on the other hand can get fucked asshole.
/S
yes, instead of scrounging for berries when you’re 75 and dying of an infected wound from when you fell over on that mountain
What culture sent wounded elders out to forage for berries?
do you see any other houses out there? My man’s willing to forgo work (not even just capitalist work for a bastard, just work to be out there in the wilderness.
Good luck with the bears!
Don’t forget your copious amounts of insect repellent.
This beautiful landscape is missing a Walmart with a 600 car parking lot.
Corporations have figured out how to make indentured servitude look good and reasonable with your credit card debt, taxes you can’t evade like they can, bills and healthcare “benefits” added to your permanent and relentless tab alongside meager time off so the C suites can fly on private jets, lobby against your livelihood and hope you are none the wiser bc most ppl are.
Looks like glacier national Park
I mean, there are ways to go and work there instead.
Not as many as there used to be.
Humans: “I love nature.”
Also Humans: “Let’s live and work in concrete boxes stacked into the sky!”
We’re working on 7-8billion people on this tiny little rock. We all need to be living in dense urban setups. This entitlement most of us have is ridiculous. We are straight up ruining this planet with our endless suburbs and desire to own a chunk of wilderness. As if our own enjoyment and personal appreciation is a virtue worth the destruction we wreak with our presence.
Al Gore said it best, it’s an inconvenient truth.
Nope, your World looks like this:
Now stop dallying and get to work.

Walls? What company is this?
Looks a lot like the cubes at my old company. Fun Fact, as far as I know, i was the first employee to ever build a roof for my cubical. It took them months to notice because of my out of the way location…
