there just aren't any real jobs
At least not advertised publicly. It's dismal. Every time I apply, the only things that happen are getting an automated "thanks for your application" email (sometimes) - or, more often, I get barraged with obvious scams for a couple of days.
The system is broken. I'm done. I don't even WANT a goddamned job anyway. I want income, and the chance to do something challenging and meaningful, and you know what? There are lots of ways to get that in life. Fuck jobs.
Also the whole application process is basically HAZING. A protracted humiliation ritual. "What's your BIGGEST WEAKNESS?" --> "That I don't have the patience for these kind of bullshit, bad faith questions. Good luck finding somebody to fit in your hole."

When the job market shuts you out at 40+, build your own way in. Freelancing, ghostwriting, and second-act careers that work.
