I hate them both. I wish the silent generation was still alive
They are, they’re Biden’s peers
Have fun dying your Easter potatoes
Do you think pointing out that Biden is literally part of the Silent Generation makes someone a conservative?
Yes. When there was no mention of politics at all in the conversation and then you go, “Biden also old af.”
I hate them both. I wish the silent generation was still alive
Not my fault you all had shitty grandparents
Definitely no politics there
🤡
wtf are you talking about? Are you illiterate? Do you think by “both” I meant US political parties? How far down the rabbit hole are you fuckknuckle?
I’ve just spent my evening nit leaving the house drinking wine and playing hell let lose with nt wife sitting behind ne playing the sims.
That’s peak millennial in my opinion
I played on my Steam Deck while my SO watched some drama last night, and we ended the evening w/ my SO bawling into my shoulder about something emotional that happened, which I had no context for but still gave some emotional support for.
Seems pretty Millenial to me as well. 😀
Yoooo - played Elden Ring whilst SO played TOTK on the same couch drinking wine and then we went to bed and totally didn’t do it because we’re both super tired 🙌 Peak Saturday Night Millennial Club
As a millennial I share these qualities with zoomers. I wish I had friends to go axe throwing with.
I wish I had friends
I’m kind of on the border between Gen Z and a millennial (1994) so I enjoy brainrot content but going out to go axe throwing or going to an escape room and having some drinks sounds amazing too. I wish I had friends to do that with :(
We exist, come find us. 😁
Does that not sound fun?
I was thinking the same thing lol.
Me and a couple buddies got motorcycles over the past year. We’re literally going to go for a ride tomorrow, then meet at the local axe throwing range. I’ve been looking forward to it all week!
That sounds so much fun!
Update, it was fun! There was no axe throwing, but we did get to see a racecar, and my bike ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere. I still had fun though!
When the fuck did my 40 year old ass become a zoomer?
Easy fix: drink.
TIL I’m a zoomer. Sheesh skibbidi rizz Ohio
That’s more alpha than zoomer.
What’s a zoomer? Old gen Z?
On God, no cap All facts no printer
Caps lock, no fax urinal
no fax
That’s something I can get behind, even if it’s at a urinal.
Does your urinal require a cover letter?
What’s the range of birth years for being one ?
Key point here: Millennials still make an effort to hang out, outside of the internet. Hoo boy that birth rate is really going to plummet. Lets see how well the capitalist’s infinite growth system works when the next 3 generations are smaller then each other. How does retirement work for the proles?
If you think capitalism is bad wait until you see what’s coming next: neofeudalism
Extremely wealthy few who control everything. No more payment, you’ll simply be a serf. No more owning, you won’t own anything, all in your life will be leased.
In that world, you have kids because your told to, or else. Individual freedom? What are you a lord? A feudal master?
I doubt anyone will have to be told to have kids. Putting people in misery will leave them grasping at anything to have a moment’s respite of pleasure. Right now they can do that with hobbies and ‘toys.’ In the future? Only the embrace of your fellow miserable hopefully-only-half-kin will be an option, and kids will start popping out.
That’s ok. At this point trump’ll tank it all first, saving us the reich wing tax incentives to bang out kids and talibangelicals preventing women from obtaining jobs or higher education so they can stay barefoot and pregnant kn the kitchen.
TIL I’m a 35 year old zoomer.
I don’t drink because I don’t wanna, and I don’t leave the house often because everything is too expensive. Home is nice and I have everything I need here. I’m basically a mid-40s zoomer I guess.
Same but also I don’t have any friends to go out with anyway, to fill out the full requirement I guess.
yes i do want to do the escape room axe throwing thing
Then do it!
I do not trust certain friends around throwing axes precisely because they’re way into the idea of throwing axes
Meanwhile me, who is lonely to tears, yet drinks alone and consumes brainrot content at the same time while crying:
Try out some MeetUp groups local to you. I found a local Web Developers hang, a local Snow time activities and a local board game groups that i’ve met some cool people from!
Hey. Don’t do that.
Nooo, don’t drink alone. It’s so bad. I’m sending you an internet hug ☆⌒(> _ <)
The first step to not doing that is to stop doing that.
You can DM me and we can be buddies. There’s a lot of social groups or clubs you can join to make some friends- I know that advice is tired, but it really works.
Do you have some hobbies? I’ll help you find a community or three. Don’t have any hobbies? Let me know what you like and we’ll find you some fun ones.
I know this is ironic on social media, but unplugging really helps me relax. Just no social media for a month. When I get antsy about it I do mindfulness exercises.
This one is just a personal recommendation though: I don’t like to drink when I’m down. It’s like keeping your head underwater while you’re drowning. I know it can be a release, but I was able to find other releases and I think avoiding alcohol when I’m down has gone a long way to making me happier.
This is all good advice, but even if you don’t follow it at least part of the issue isn’t that you’re alone, but what you’re doing while you’re alone…
Like. Years ago I decided to build a nine foot tall statue in the living room of my one bedroom apartment. It took me months, and it’s actually terrifying, but it also interests people. Like. No one responds to “I have an eight and a half foot tall statue in my living room” with “okay”.
Having hobbies isn’t just a way to meet people, it’s a way to learn new skills, grow as a person, and have something you can look back on and say “I did that”.
If you spent all your time alone building or making things you’d probably feel a lot better about the time you spent alone, and doubtlessly people would pick up on that
And before you say, “but hobbies are expensive,” I bet there are a lot of things you’re interested in that are cheaper than alcohol. You just need to find those things and start them.
Yeah. I was broke af when I made my statue. It’s mostly… I guess technically mortar. Cement and sand and burlap and chicken wire. Cement is not expensive.
And the best thing about hobbies is you can be creative. You can go dumpster diving to get “found materials” to make a statue, or go to the thrift store, or maybe the local wrecking yard. There are a ton of options for cheap stuff that can be attached together to make something interesting.
I’ve found some really, really weird art besides the dumpster behind my building, and the steady stream of old electronics has really helped in learning how to solder.
You don’t even need to open up a dumpster honestly.
Hey, hope you’ll learn to deal with self destructing habits, every steps in the right direction matters !
And dont be too harsh on yourself, perfect is ennemy of good as we say in France, especially if its derail you from wanting to get better :)
They should make a group for people who drink alone to socialize with, like “Alcoholics Identified” or something.
Hmm, maybe we could call it “Big Alcoholics Rally” or something. Maybe we could organize them as community centers, and give it a neat acronym. Hmm…
i don’t think this is a generational thing tbh
Before ipas we had really light stuff, browner stuff and black stuff. It was a little boring
I knew it, I’m just a zoomer born early.
As much as the whole generation thing is made up, sometimes being a zillenial (late millennial/early gen z) really makes one feel left out of everything
Being old millennial is weird too, most millennials think I grew up in the 50s compared to their life experience. The generation gap between me and my dad is what kind of manual car with a carburetor and hand crank windows we consider ‘‘new’’ looking. But I entered the job market at EXACTLY housing bubble burst. And I was worried I’d get drafted for Iraq, but, alas it thankfully didn’t happen.
As you get older you will eventually be considered both. For example people who grew up believing they were gen X might technically be labeled millennial nows. Like there are millennials who are in their 40s
