Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?

@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 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. -
@Tattie @thordis @szczurtorebkowy Both Xennials. (As am I)
I prefer “Oregon trail generation”, but that just redirects to the link below.
@jpsays "actually I define myself as" is such a quintessentially Millennial attitude, tho. 🤭
