“Every drink takes five minutes off your life.” Maybe the thought scares you. Personally, I find comfort in it.

Different domain but I’ve become really anti-vocabulary in econ/markets — transitory, stagflation, soft landing, recession, bull market, bear market, I don’t like any of it. Better to just describe the dynamics that are occurring rather than get anchored to a specific term.
Good points here from @schatz.bsky.social about how these little language questions aren’t *just* about language — they are signals as to whether you think for yourself or outsource everything.

It's an issue of control. The language is used to identify insiders versus outsiders, those who have institutional power and those who do not. The more complicated and frequently changing the language, the more control the insiders exert. It's part of the factional fight within the Democratic Party.

A lot of the soon-to-be-released Baby Boomer housing is massively depreciated and won't be "cheap" supply because of massive renovation costs.
America's housing stock is the oldest it's ever been and just keeps getting older. We don't have enough homes in this country and too much of what we have is dated and decaying.
