I work retail, a large hardware store specially. All our customers are bored boomers buying fancy ass grills and over priced yard equipment to make their 3 acre plot look nice. The fucking hardware store recently opened a section that sells like fancy jams and sauces for dinner parties. The whole economy is re-gearing to just jerk off petite-bourgeois.
I’ve kind of noticed this restructuring too. A lot of ads I’ve been getting have all been “for your business” and every slop is just some dumb business tech or how to hire ’the unicorn’ faster.
Even once I had the opportunity to visit my more successful brother in a major city and a lot of the ads on public transport are the same way, that by being within a city, ads assume you must be rich.

DC ads are literally just pictures of missiles and jets with a company’s logo next to it.
The Gamestop-ification of retail.
