So confused to see genX included in the poll I almost forgot to vote -
@jpsays "actually I define myself as" is such a quintessentially Millennial attitude, tho. 🤭

@tieandjeans Interesting! I do enjoy this kind of analysis, as long as people don't get too obsessed with it. (My Gen Z daughter makes a huge deal out of being a different generation from her Gen Alpha brother, three years her junior....)
@thordis I've been in the classroom with middle and highschool students since 2001.
There are always microgeneration bubbles. Current HS students are clear on the Z/Alpha border. -
@Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis I don't feel lucky. I feel like I'm watching all my hopes and dreams be torn down for good, just as they were about to finally be within reach. The stuff I worked toward my whole life... I worked toward it for nothing. All the angst, trying to be good enough for my parents and then my children, only to find out it was pointless because it doesn't matter what I do or did. The world has turned to a giant dumpster fire, and I don't know how we will ever climb out of it.
@hosford42 @Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis
how are you doing fellow Xennial? Take care yourself. I'm where you are right now and I sometimes have to pull away from it all and dive into something completely unrelated to the world around me. I've watched most of my friends and family struggle. It is bleak right now and I'm not going to sugarcoat it. It is very scary.
But you're not alone. Stay strong. Once history turns over again, we'll be needed to help with our unique insights and wisdom as children somewhere between two arbitrarily defined albeit unique generations.
Apes, together, strong.

@hosford42 @Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis this encapsulates what I consider the defining feature of us xennials.
It's not as simple as technology - I spent large amounts of my single digit childhood on a 48k Spectrum, while many of my peers barely touched a computer until late teens.
It's more about us living on the edge of a cliff. We are the tipping point between GenX who could reliably do the career-house-kids-stability thing, and Millennials who had that future ripped from them. Whether any individual of us managed to cling onto the cliff is largely due to chance.@jetlagjen @hosford42 @Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis
me and my hand-me-down TI/99/4a computer agree with you!
Chance has a lot to do with it.

Yes, many (not all) were certainly happy to kick the ladders away in the 80s, and that generation's luck has continued with triple-locked, final salary pensions.
I read something recently about European counties where Boomers had higher incomes in retirement than the average salary of working people, but this seems to be changing for more recent retirees thanks to retirement age increases and taxes.

@thordis *extreme nerdy voice* aktschually I'm a cusp year that's Xennial, but I identify more with millennials than gen X so that's what I chose.

@TomF weird, she seemed to have mastered beaverbending by the series finale.

also I forgot the history prints the line number in front, so instead of cut it's better something like awk '{ print $2 }'

@glipari si, è stato “molto sentito” (forte e lungo), ma dalle mie parti niente di grave, anche se hanno chiuso le scuole del circondario quindi è una rotture di quaglie

@OKdad beautifully said. And I am judging the NYTimes for platforming and giving an implicit legitimacy to such "trends"... of course moral panic leads to clicks, rage and attention, sigh

A quelli che si siedono nell’ultima fila per non essere osservati.
A chi quando gli fai un sorriso in ascensore abbassa lo sguardo e arrossisce.
A chi rimane digiuno ai buffet.
A quelli che non dicono niente quando qualcuno taglia la coda e passa avanti … https://cctm.website/roberto-pellico-italia/Roberto Pellico

Quanti anni che sono su mastodon? Sei? Sette? Non ricordo.
Fatto sta, che ho scoperto OGGI che le emoji d'istanza sono in ordine alfabetico
Mi faccio i complimenti da solo.
