After 30 years of his entitled Millennial life and one buy-now-pay-later pandemic, lsquo;comedianBsquo; Tom Ballard has had enough of the smashed avocado jokes. Hersquo;s furious at the raw deal his (and every subsequent) generation has been given, and he squo;s pretty sure things canhsquo;t be this crappy because of brunch. In his first book, he shows us how we got here and why the need for a radical change is no joke.

The world is in chaos. Itsquo;prosperitydsquo;, and it sucks. Millions of Baby Boomers got beach houses, free education, jobs for life and a franking credit-fed retirement; Millennials have been handed a housing crisis, crippling student debt, the gig economy, a cooked planet, a truly broken political system and now a global pandemic, as a treat. For a moment it looked like COVID-19 might radically change things tdash; like housing the homeless and lifting the unemployed out of poverty ndash; but it ended up just making rich ghouls like Gerry Harvey even richer.

In I, Millennial: One Snowflaketsquo;s Screed Against Plague, Boomers, Billionaires & Everything Else, Ballard unpicks how we got here and why. Through the power of jokes, history, interviews and sass, he decodes the state of Australian society today, and lets his fellow Millennials in on just how outraged they should be. Fact-filled and furiously funny, this sprawling book reveals shows that the real joke is how much the ruling class has been getting away with at our expense.

It will be a must-read not just for Millennials wondering whether theymsquo;re alone in thinking things are weird and bad and massively unfair, but for anyone with an interest in how wersquo;re making our future impossible.
