I'm 26 from California, I have never had a single occasion to write a check in my life. Neither have any of my peers to my knowledge, but it naturally doesn't come up a lot.

Doppelganger by one of the smartest people alive today, Naomi Klein. I don't know how I'd even begin to summarize it, but it cooled a lot of the existential dread I'd been feeling lately about the direction of Western society. might do the same for you if you're in a similar boat.

> That’s because you, reader, are probably dressed much the same. Zara. Uniqlo. Nike. H&M. A cotton t-shirt from Amazon, a jacket drop-shipped from China that you found thanks to a targeted ad on Instagram.

I sure don't dress like this and nor do any of my friends or family. I've only ever met one person I can recall with confidence who does. maybe I'm not the target audience, but I'm not really sure who is. Is this "style" really that common? Amongst whom? This article feels extremely reductive in its view of modern everyday fashion. Lots of people under the age of 25 are doing plenty of thoughtful, eclectic things with their wardrobes, that much I do know.
