By Matthew GagnonI never really wanted to be an old father. I, being the last child born of my parents, know first hand how difficult and complicated that can be. By the time I was in Little League, my father was already 55 years old, and didn’t really have a lot of time or energy to go play catch or go to the cages. When I graduated high school, he was almost 64 years old, and was very much showing the signs of his aging. In 2006, when my wife (your mother) and I got married, he was 71 years old.

This is stupid. Housing is not a finite resource that we compete over, and once taken prevents others from acquiring it. Or it least it wouldn't be in a properly functioning market, as excess demand would result in building additional housing stock. This one isn't on boomers.
Boomers are selling their houses for high prices and then downsizing and paying for stater homes with cash. So young families can’t afford the homes they’re putting for sale and then get outbid the houses they can afford. They’ve totally ruined the market it’s insane

Fuck you for inserting your contemporary political bullshit in the show. Fuck you for making Rand a side character in his own story. Mostly, https://t.co/ahb1sMKpt7
