  • Hm, like most opinion pieces, there aren’t any hard numbers from studies really shown besides the initial percentages. And I immediately picked up on the second paragraph’s

    Compared to older generations, younger generations have reported higher rates of victimization in phishing, identity theft, romance scams, and cyberbullying.

    Yeah no shit those metrics will skew towards Gen Z being more victimized if you’re lumping cyberbullying into the mix! They’re one of the first generations that have had to deal with their peers harassing the everloving shit out of them all hours of the day online. As a millennial, I didn’t have to even think about putting up with that until at least high school. I’d really want to see what questionnaire wording they were using for the survey data. If the question was legitimately “Have you ever been a victim of phishing, identity theft, romance scams, or cyberbullying?” then I think almost everyone with a social media account for their whole life would need to check “yes.”




  • It’s best to research construction of the shoe as best you can. Check YouTube reviews where they’re actually holding the shoes in their hands, or find the communities of people that are OBSESSED with shoes and make friends with them like I did. Usually there’s a relation between price and quality, but not always if you’re picking out name brands. Currently I’m very happy with my Thursday Boots. They seem to be a nice construction for the price I paid. There are, of course, nicer ones out there, but I’m not in a position to drop $200USD+ on shoes just yet.

    And advice for ladies, buy men’s shoes(If possible). It completely sucks but the fashion industry wants you to buy shoes every year. So they make our shoes like shit. Find your men’s size (if possible) and just make the switch. I haven’t looked back.
