I feel like I can predict the future personal trajectories of 2 out of 3 people under 25 given a decent signal like a few hundred tweets. This is very depressing. But the 1 in 3 I can’t predict give me hope.

Deep felt pattern match.
“This one will end up an early burnout”
“Future insecure, precarious mid-career person nursing a grudge”
“This one will be politically radicalized”
“Depressed maven/aesthete in the making here”
“This one will be an aging scenester”
“Future bore”
I hear you.
Trying to spare your past friends and self from badly shepherded thought.
There may not be precisely a right way, but there are plenty of wasteful ones.
There will be plenty of time later to ponder those things, if that's consolation 😂

IMO rather than keep it to yourself, you should monetize this. Might need to do some hand waving with tarot cards but I think it’ll work.
This Buzz Feed quiz sucks, but I respect the science.

You know, if I saw someone wearing a t-shirt that said "Future Bore" I'd become very interested.

Are these orthogonal categories? This seems a bit like astrology. Aren't we all a bit of all these? And "under 25s are going to be screwed" is a prediction you can make with a high degree of certainty. You'd need a few "happily married and chill" type categories.
