There certainly is, it's just not being engaged in this article. Its content is almost entirely recounting nostalgic aspects of his childhood and the crushing, atomized mundanity that has replaced it.
Nowhere is there any analysis on or reckoning with what makes his generation's lost innocence different from all the others. Growing up and having to pay bills has been part and parcel of life in the imperial core since the modern era. That's not to say there isn't anything different about it this time around, but the means by which it is different aren't enumerated.
I still think there's value to the post as a means to vent and commiserate with others in the same boat, but that's pretty much it ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯
"The world seems worse compared to a time I had no responsibilities and every new experience was novel. What gives?" Gee I wonder
