thinking VERY hard about the exhousemate and how he never engaged with anything i made. he would sometimes like fanart i posted to twitter but only if it was his hyperfixation blorbo (or smut). during one of our failed campaigns i did a lot of speculative writing about my character because he asked me to, and never once did he acknowledge any of it. i sent him the first chapter of Eyeing an Uncomfortable Question and the only reason i ever knew he actually read it was because he verbally asked "did you see the trailer?" (in reference to the house having a basement)
its one thing to share to the void of the internet and be greeted by radio silence. its another to share a piece of art directly with someone and be greeted with a response that is somehow less than nothing.
#and he had the audacity to subtly accuse me of not reading his Princes of the Apocalypse backstory#only for it to be revealed he had never even fucking sent it to me#(with the chaser of 'its core component heavily leaned on one of my only two hard lines')#ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!! these complaints do not include like. reasonable constraints of adult life.#when i send something to a friend and it takes a week for them to see it because we're all busy and sometimes forget things??#literally not a problem!! i sent that to u as a gift for later!!! in the same way i never ever ever expect an immediate response to a text!#no. its when i sent a link to a dude sitting in the same room as me#watched him read the whole thing with my own two eyes#and then he just closed the tab without a word.#thats what rustles my fuckin jimmies. thats what gets me salty.

Millennial Entitlement
Preface: I apologize that it has been so long since my last post. However, I want to make sure that my posts are well thought out and are important, at least to me. I could easily pump out one post per month or probably even post biweekly. However, I know that those posts will either consist of irrelevant nonsense or be rushed and underdeveloped, which would just add to the ignorant noise with which we are already overly saturated and contributing to the ignorance problem I highlighted in my first post. Assuming somebody actually reads these posts. For those who actually do (if you exist), thank you for your patience.
Given the buzz around the term "Millennial" and noise circulating about their hypersensitivity and entitlement, I wanted to provide some thoughts that would hopefully cut through the noise and help illuminate the realities of Millennials. Before I start, I will provide a disclaimer. Being born in the late 1980s, I am a Millennial. I do not take any particular pride or shame in claiming that title. It is a title that has been ascribed to my generation, and I accept that. Although being a member of this group certainly presents the potential for bias, it also provides me with a particular insight to provide my thoughts below.
As a scientist, I know that defining terms and base assumptions is vital to understanding analysis. So, I am starting with some definitions. Before talking of Millennials, one must, first, know what a Millennial is. When it comes to labeling generations, there is always a bit of fluidity when it comes to declaring specific start and end dates. However, the most common model of generational cohorts divides all currently living peoples into six generations, stemming back to the turn of the 20th century. These generations are typically characterized by the combined experiences common to the formative years of that generation. The oldest generation, often called the Greatest Generation, is those who came to age during the Great Depression. Then, there is the silent generation, who spent their formative years in the context of WWII. Growing up in the aftermath of WWII, we, then have the Baby Boomers, aptly named to the spike in birth rates following the War. The next three generations were assigned letter designations. Generation X's childhood was defined by the end of the traditional family dynamic, as divorce rates increased and the number of women in the workplace also increased. Next, there is Generation Y. Generation Y, aptly named the Millennial generation, had their childhood defined by the start of the new millennium, and the technological revolution that coincided with it. Finally, Generation Z are those born in the new millennium having their childhood defined by a post-9-11 America and the vast interconnectivity afforded to us by the prevalence if the internet and social media. With these definitions in mind, let me clarify something. This means that in 2019, contrary to some indications, Millennials are schoolchildren or teenagers. Rather, Millennials are, for the most part, adults in their 20's and early 30's.
Now that I have defined what a Millennial is, I can now focus on the "buzz." Over the past few years, the term "Millennial" has become synonymous with entitlement and hypersensitivity. Terms like “snowflake” and “the Me Me Me Generation,” complaints about their lack of work ethic, and other similar disparagements of Millennials are now commonplace among the conversations. So much so, that many people, my generation included, assume it to be true.
As a Millennial, one would assume that I would come to my generation’s defense and explicate on all the reasons those labels are untrue and unfounded. (Millennials are more inclusive, diverse, and educated). Perhaps, I would shift the blame on the issues being attributed to my generation to the problems created by previous generations. (Millennials reached adulthood in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and the Great Recession). Maybe, I would even explain that every generation had opinions and disparaging remarks about their successors. (Gen X’ers were lazy, directionless slackers; Baby Boomers were pampered, godless, drugged-out, long-haired hippies; the Silent Generation was rude and undisciplined; and the Greatest Generation was selfish and indulgent).
However, I have decided to not take that approach. Instead, much like my acceptance of the label of Millennial, I will admit that we, Millennials, are entitled and hypersensitive. Further, I assert below why my generation’s entitlement and hypersensitivity is both an appropriate and necessary response to our circumstances. My claim of appropriateness and necessity stems from three bases.
My first basis is based on Human nature. An often referenced theory in human developmental psychology is the hierarchy of needs. Without going into a lengthy lecture, this theory can be summarized such that human needs can be divided into 5 categories and are interconnected, in that motivation to pursue the “higher needs” is dependent on the satisfaction of “lower needs.” Admittedly, there are many criticisms of this theory, including and not limited to the lack of empirical evidence and the variance of how needs are categorized. This theory and model are still often used and relied upon in various areas of study and training. Following that lead, I assert that this model can be applied to human society and its development over time. Specific to the topic at hand, I see many of the generational differences in recent American history relate to the generations’ differing needs.
Unlike the previous generations, Millennials, for the most part, are not plagued with the “lower” need deficiencies, with which the previous generations struggled. That is, the Greatest Generation was not guaranteed base needs like food and shelter, due to the Great Depression. World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Cold War, called into question the physical safety and security for the Silent Generation and the Boomers. With much of the threat of war behind them, the Gen X’ers were able to focus on the social needs, like connectedness and acceptance. With these lower needs satisfied, Millennials, following the hierarchy theory, should be motivated by the self-esteem needs, the psychological needs for respect, recognition, and the like. So, this entitlement and emotional neediness are simply the manifestation human needs for recognition and respect. So, if the hierarchy of needs is to be believed, then Millennials are simply following the natural progression of the satisfaction of needs.
The second basis refers to the fact that our entitlement and hypersensitivity were instilled in us as children. Please do not construe this as me blaming our parent’s generations for our problems. In fact, previous generations raising us Millennials with these expectations are precisely what they, as ancestors, are supposed to do. It is said that each generation works to make the world better for those who come after. That is precisely what they did. They grew up in a world with less safety, security, opportunity, etc. So, they instilled in us a desire for better things. How did they instill this? They did so in many ways. My generation was promised, for lack of a better term, that financial success and security would come to us by simply obtaining higher education. My generation was counseled to consider personal feelings when interacting with others. My generation was asked to focus on what makes us similar, instead of what makes us different. My generation was told to true to ourselves. My generation was if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. Being raised on these tenets, is it really surprising that, now as adults, we expect and are demanding things like a living wage, acceptance of the world's diverse cultures, respect for one's own life decisions and personal identities, and continuing to make the world better? What many see as hypersensitivity is merely hyperawareness of these cultural and personal issues. What is seen as entitlement is merely expecting the opportunities and togetherness for which previous generations fought and died. What some suggest as taking our freedoms for granted is actually the realization that, though things are better than they have been, there is still more to achieve.
Despite all the differences stated above, Millennials are not that different than the generation that came before. This brings me to my third and final basis. Since the turn of the 20th century, America has made many strides when it comes to social justice. In fact the past century and or so, we have seen women and racial minorities given the right to vote. We have seen affirmative action and desegregation assist in lessening the racial and gender disparities in opportunity. We have even seen the right to marry extend beyond racial and sexuality constraints. Whether championed by the Greatest Generation or most recently by Generation X, the past century or so has seen virtually every generation push social norms and expectations to create meaningful and, with the benefit of hindsight, deserving change to the sociopolitical landscape of America. Now, Millennials have taken up the fight, furthered by the generations before them, to demand the correction of certain social injustices and societal norms. What is being seen as hypersensitivity and entitlement is just the Millennials highlighted and demanding the changes that see are necessary for a better future. The same desire the led the Greatest Generation to strike and demand safe and fair working conditions. The same desire that led Baby Boomers to walk on Washington and demand the freedoms and rights of all people regardless of race or gender. Decades from now, I am certain that some of these causes being championed by Millennials now, will be looked at as the triumphs of social justice just as those successful causes championed by previous generations have been, therefore, justifying much if not all of this entitlement and hypersensitivity for which Millennials have been criticized.
So, Millennials are entitled and hypersensitive. As you can see, this entitlement and hypersensitivity are both natural and inevitable. Further, if the entitlement and hypersensitivity leads us to a better world in the future, then is that really a bad thing? I do not think so. At least, that is the way I see it.
