How long different animals live, in a vintage infographic by ISOTYPE pioneer Otto Neurath. via explore-blog:
Almost everyone in our age group knows someone who is unemployed. Not because that person is lazy, but because the lowest percentage of Americans age 16 to 29 are employed since World War II, with 55% of young adults employed. If we dwell on the fact that many of those jobs are not careers, and many of those are part-time, the picture gets bleaker.
This makes me feel a bit better about knowing successful peers, and being not quite where I want to be in my own professional life. And then sad again, knowing that I may not get my “dream job” (a salary, benefits) any time soon.
The rest of the article is worth a read, and focuses on the political inclinations of Millenials (see also: Liberal).
