      You’re right. They’re expected to have lots of kids who grow up in the same inescapeable situation.

      How else would the machine keep going.

        I was just thinking something more pleasant if not meaningful to use the little time you have. Unless just sitting there is what one wants to do.

        First three won’t necessary cost anything or can cost very little. But I wouldn’t really know, I’m not American

          Doing anything other than boning or vegging on the sofa with your partner will cost you money.

          Dating very much will cost you money (not that it isn’t worth it if you have it).

          Also I can’t imagine what sort of hobby costs very little money.

            Not it doesn’t. You can take a walk. You can visit places that are free. Borrow a boardgame from a library and play that. There’s a bazillion things to do without paying a cent or paying very little.

            For hobbies: Reading (libraries), using any of the stuff libraries offer to loan these days really, geocaching, exercising by walking, running etc. Even stuff like learning a language or playing games can be free unless you don’t already even have a phone etc.

            There’s tons of free stuff to do

              take a walk where? spend money on gas to go to a nature area, or do 5 laps around the neighbourhood?
              huge swaths of suburban america are literally not possible to leave by foot

              libraries are similarily shitty in large parts of the US, that is if one even exists anywhere near you.

                Any place you’d want to visit by foot in your area. Goddamn dude do you want me to make an itinerary for you to accept that there is stuff to do for free lol

                They don’t have books in them?
