#i love gen x/millenials

[lilbreed1ngdoll]

you cant give your little kid a phone/tablet, then get mad after they get addicted and wont put it down when its time to eat 🤪

[horsetailcurlers2]

“you think millennial gray is bad? at least it’s not gen x orange!” i actually find “ugly” gen x trends so nostalgic and comforting. at least things had WARMTH back then and weren’t all white shiplap and slate gray wood and black fixtures. “everything was brown :(“ YES EVERYTHING WAS BROWN AND I LOVE IT. i love u honey oak cabinets. i will never paint over you. i love the way light reflects off the “ugly” orange stained hardwood.

// how is it we have two entirely different yet equally loud and angry subcultures about fiction now

we have tiktok fandoms which will simultaneously promote incest fics while setting people on fire for critiquing lolita

and we have tumblr fandoms which will promote the raunchiest stuff but burn you alive for suggesting that there's sexism going on when people critique scarlett witch's casting and not quicksilvers despite them being siblings

idk feels like we have two bizarre, opposite direction writing fandoms that both scream loudly and are equally irrational

maybe that's the beauty of the internet, a place where white people will scream at you for using a wendigo but indigenous people will say it's okay and no one is happy

but I am increasingly confused by the existence of booktok where every week I am told by my friends that a new reverse harem stepsibling story hit the nyt bestseller list or something

oh no I've become an old man complaining about the kids these days

[benadril]

I am a huge fan of cringe death Btw. I love seeing an attempt at humor I don't find funny on the internet and then scrolling away. I love looking at tiktoks made by people clearly in a different stage than I am and then turning off my phone. Big fan of living and letting others live. Btw if you even care

Someone needs this right now. Therefore, this is for you 🤲🏾

Trusting! (rd 1 Peter 1:6-7).

**Sometimes you will face situations that are bigger than you are, making you feel as if you have no answers or resources to continue on. Everything in you says, "Give up!" But don't do it. Friend, you're in the midst of a faith test. God isn't punishing you, and He hasn't forgotten you. Rather, He is providing an opportunity for you to grow spiritually and believe Him for greater things. So make a decision to believe the Lord in spite of everything. Don't look at your circumstances or pay attention to the opinions of others. Listen to the Father. Open God's Word and trust what He says. He is teaching you that Jesus really is sufficient for every need you have. There's no challenge too overwhelming or pit too deep--He can always deliver you. So expect Him to prove Himself faithful in this difficulty. Amen!

In the Sixties, the hippies used to say, "Never trust anyone over 30."

"Don't trust anyone over 30" ( Nowadays it's be carefull of the bad influence of gen X and some gen Z pro lgbtq disorder )

By Dave Winer on Sunday, October 16, 2011 at 12:02 PM.

When I was a kid, and definitely under 30, the hippies had a slogan that you shouldn't trust anyone over 30. This was called the generation gap. Maybe some historian or sociologist can explain it. I just remember people saying it and not understanding.  

I could think of specific people over 30 that you coudn't trust. People I had seen betray young people because they were young and couldn't defend themselves. When you're a kid you're tuned into this. I guess the question is what do you plan to do about it when you become an adult. Will you be better, or will you seek r ? Or just forget about it. 

And here we are again.

Generational Shift

The shift in generation from Boomers and up and the rest really goes to show how a bigger level of empathy is a new evolutionary point to help us survive

Millenials (Ish), Gen X and Gen Z, being open about trauma, focusing more on the well being of others (Socialist-Leftist) and having the capacity to empathize with others, wanting to save the planet, to simply focus on the well being of All and not just us.

Boomers and Older, however (You know, the people currently in position of powers in society) Cares about themselves, about the good old days, It's about me and the people I care about, I don't want the world to thrive but to only me and those around me

Sure, it grew our population, sure it gave us incredible technology and medical miracles

But, back then, less than 100 years ago, there were 2/3 of the population we have currently, we had forest to cut, we had ressources being discovered left and right, if people weren't divided this expansion could've been way slower

And now? We've expanded. We've discovered all that there is to discover. We're pushing more and more things in an already limited space. And those people, focusing on their annual margin rather than others, are not really slowly killing the planet.

We all noticed and suddenly we can empathize with others more, so much so we now prioritize others, close or not everywhere in the world. We want to survive, we want to be able to live. But the hoarders are an illness that'll take only time to cure. Which we're developing a sense for to prevent for it to keep happening in the future.

Hopefully, we all get the chance to just be able to live in our lifetimes.

Too many women my age and younger are too busy crashing out over needing to be married and have kids, like it is not the 25-33 year old women, it is the 15-24 year old girls doing A LOT and failing

"...we know the government doesn't give a fuck about us. We know the government doesn't give a flying fuck about the future of this country. I don't give a fuck about Biden's campaign! Nor do I give a fuck about Trump's campaign. Because they don't care about me! They don't care about babies. They don't care about women. They don't care about Black people or Native Americans. They don't give a fuck about Palestinian children. I do! I give a fuck about this country! I was born on this soil. I love this place. Because I love my friends, and I love the earth, and I want to protect it, and they don't. Because they want pocket change."

FULL TRANSCRIPT:

"

You have to forgive me, cause I'm getting a little angry, but I've seen a lot of rhetoric on this app, and on other social media, and on the news, that our generation is soft. That Gen X- Gen X, Boomers, and Silent Generation believe that Gen Z and millenials and this Gen Alpha are soft. And I will tell you what, I think that is the worst thing to assume.

I have witnessed hundreds of my peers' lives be stripped away from them; their futures, their hopes, their dreams, their prom nights, because of our government's inaction with gun control. I have witnessed millions of lives taken away and altered and changed and ruined because of our government's inaction with Covid.

You guys made us tough. We're tough. We're tougher than you think, and we're tougher than you like to admit. Because we know the government doesn't give a fuck about us. We know the government doesn't give a flying fuck about the future of this country.

I don't give a fuck about Biden's campaign! Nor do I give a fuck about Trump's campaign. Because they don't care about me! They don't care about babies. They don't care about women. They don't care about Black people or Native Americans. They don't give a fuck about Palestinian children. I do! I give a fuck about this country!

I was born on this soil. I love this place. Because I love my friends, and I love the earth, and I want to protect it, and they don't. Because they want pocket change.

Tough. You think you're tough? You're bootlickers! Subservient to the idea of "growth." As if we can grow anymore! Our planet is dying! Because you don't give a fuck. Because you're soft. And saving the planet might be a little tougher than you thought.

I'm ready for that work. You know what I'm not ready for? Another world war. Just because I'm not gonna go over and shoot another working class person that I probably have more in common with, than an owning class piece of shit like Elon Musk, I'm soft? Because I care enough to accomodate my differently-abled peers, I'm soft? Because I don't wanna joke about women getting abused, I'm soft? If I'm alone in a room with Jeff Jackson, I'm leaving with his teeth in a jar. I'll show you how soft I am.

And you wanna ban the only place that we found community? Yeah, nonono. This election year is crazy. Because at this point, like, I think the entire generation, my generation, knows that you guys are geriatric, and knows that the Constitution is as well. It's too old. We are one of the youngest countries and we have the oldest Constitution? Make that make sense to me.

It's time for change. It's time for a new way of life. And these rich, stupid fucks don't deserve to be in charge of it. That's it, I'm sorry, that's it. That's it, I'm done."

HEYYEYHEY CAN I REQUEST LLOYD (ninjago) HEADCANONS PLEASEEEE (ty :3)

A/N: Ofc!I'll do general character ones, as well as x reader ones :) hope ye likey likey:pp

Lloyd, The Greenest and Geekest mf.

General character headcanons:

Half Japanese half Chinese

His hair is box blonde dye and you cannot change my mind.

Left handed

Severely dyslexic and hands off all scroll reading and just reading oriented tasks to kai.

Def gen z vibes. Like, the others give off more inbetween z and millenial, so they dont always get his humor. And sometimes he uses that to his advantage and "Speaks in code" (uses as much slang as possible)

Has LED lights in his room set to forest green.

Has given himself a smiley face tattoo.

Cried over a dead goose once.

OK, just to preface i see cole as a stoner of Sorts and uses the excuse "it gets me closer to my element"

With that in mind cole let lloyd try it and now sometimes when he is told to unwind, of feels like he needs to take a chill pill he and Cole spark up

in the beginning of his leader ship role, he used to Say;"kick ass and take names" and if things went wrong he had the fuck it we ball mindset, but got better with time. There are still times they wing it, though.

if he isnt in his gi he almost exclusively wears his pajamas (aka a Hoodie, tshirt and sweats)

Vv tired, and now has a raging addiction to energy drinks due to his lack of Sleep.

He used to eat worms as a kid bc he Thought he it was evil.

Has a eyebrow piercing, and wants a tongue piercing.

Wears "reading" glasses, that he should technically wear all the time because he can't see up close and has a astigmatism,, but he says yolo. Zane then make him contacts after he almost ran into a moving blade and got his head severed.

Adhd and OCD, as well as the normal line up (anxiety, depression, cptsd)

Lloyd in a relationship:

Hes very distant in the beginning, it'll take time to warm up to you.

He tends to be orage cat vibes.

On the cat trend, he gets close for a bit Before becoming distant. Going through waves of affection, kinda.

He hasn't had like, any good relationships in his life so he tries to "protect" himself when he feels he gets to close to you, and so he pulls away.

He does the fuckboy face when your sad bc it makes you laugh, as well as That weird dice roll

He actually does the face/dice roll combo whenever he Sees you as he walks over, it's an inside joke now

primary giving love language: acts of service and quality time

Primary receiving love language: gifts and words of affirmation. But physical touch is also high up there.

Also, not expensive gifts. He hates those. Give him a stick you saw on a walk that made you think of him. He'll cherish it forever. And maybe cry.

He will cry.

will make noises at you and expects a noise in response or he'll be sad.

Also randomly bites you. He's a nommer

also sends you memes throughout the day.

As well as random pictures with the caption;"BABY LOK THIS IS S. US IF WE WHERE *insert whatever item here*

Called you babe, baby, love, shitface, asshole.

Expect kind and loving gentle bullying.

Doesnt know how to express his emotions to just expect him to come up to you, lightly shake your shoulders and aggressively say;"I love you bitch.i ain't Evea gon stop lovin you. Bitchhhhhhh" (vine reference)

Sends you .5 of everyone, himself included. He's addicted to Taking them. You will not get out of it.

Also sometimes just walks around in nyas stilettos for fun.

You two have fashion shows.

You also take over the Living room sometimes and build giant ass forts to watch shitty reality tv in and make fun oF The people

Overall, once he realizes you won't leave he's the most funniest loving chaotic guy.

But expect it to take a hot minute for him to realsie this

give him time,, but also have some deep talks..

Let him vent

and for the love of God don't hurt the baby's heart.

Expect inside jokes

are we rocking w the christmas list

born to ask for toys for christmas forced to ask for dvds

[threeacttragedy]

Really nice take on the ring.

Your Dad seems like a lovely man.

Don't get offended please.

But why would your Dad, who I guess is a gen X or a boomer man understand how a millenial woman thinks better than us?

No offense taken, anon. I rarely bite back with venom in my fangs (at least not enough to kill you) so never be afraid to ask me a question.

The story about my dad and his reaction to the ring should not be used as anyone's "do or die" determination on the significance of the ring. It was simply the catalyst that got ME thinking about whether the history (and traditional relevance) of the ring was "generally known."

You'll also find that the Lukola fandom ranges in age and it's spread across at least five generations. The oldest Lukola I've come across just turned 87 and, yes, she is a "ring truther."

But, since you asked...

My father is a boomer who raised three millennial daughters. He's walked all three of us through every major milestone in our lives and, most importantly, he's taken the time to listen to us as we've gone through these milestones. There is no one in this world who knows ME better than my dad. No matter what our generational difference is, we match each other's freak.

But, that's definitely NOT to say every boomer out there understands every millennial. In fact, the boomers in my area are quite judgmental towards -- well, just about everyone.

However, we would be flawed in our argument if we made the assumption that one generation cannot relate to another simply because there is a generational or age gap.

For example, both Nicola and Luke are millennials. Jake and Antonia are Gen Z'ers. If there is any suggestion that a boomer can't relate to a millennial, then that same theory must also be applied to a millennial not being able to relate to a Gen Z'er.

finished veilguard, i'm not crying you're crying

my final thoughts (huge spoiler alert, don't read if you haven't finished !!)

THINGS I LOVED:

the combat !! i only have played a mage so far but it was so insanely fun and SUCH a huge upgrade from dai.

the vibes were immaculate, every place had such a unique aesthetic, so much screen archery potential around every corner

i loved the characters so so so so much. i lost harding, davrin, and neve in the final battle (i cried)

i honestly loved mostly everything, i haven't had this much fun with a game in a long time

the twist with varric broke my heart (and genuinely shocked me), but i love love love the "it was a hallucination all along" trope

the game did such a good job of keeping the mood positive and light, that when bad things DID happen, it really took me off guard. for example, before the final battle, i went with emmrich to the necropolis for a romantic night (very cute very wholesome etc). and what happens in the final battle ??? BAM. he gets crushed by rocks (i quit the game out of pure shock and reloaded my save). while i do wish the mood wasn't so uplifting all the time, this contrast made the last few quests so much more emotional. it makes me wonder if this was intentional, or if i'm just naive...

THINGS I DID NOT LOVE:

my biggest gripe is that it wasn't funny. dragon age origins and inquisition both had me literally laughing out loud, and had probably the funniest/wittiest dialogue in any game i've ever played. i feel like they were trying too hard to keep veilguard PG, which was honestly a strange choice given that dragon age's audience is mainly millenials/gen X

varric had brown hair and that just makes no sense sorry

this is a really silly thing to have a problem with, but there isn't an option for WHITE hair. like it shows up looking gray no matter what, i wish there was a true white bc it messed up my inquisitor's character creation.

romance could have been a little more spicy idk... past games had some razzmatazz that was lacking in veilguard (i'm thinking of the cullen desk scene specifically... awooga)

but all in all, it was an amazing game by my standards and i can't wait to play again !!!!!!! <3
