This goes for a lot of stuff. When I was 18ish I remember thinking "gently caress, why do we even HAVE war?" I try to remember this when kids act like no one ever tried to solve racism or hunger before.

Nevertheless, we will create freakish and wonderful new porns. Given time.

Also double spacing is nice sometimes. It's another device that helps keep form so you dont stop using puncuation or mispelling things or using runon sentences which eventuly dont even need 2b words or sin tax or even contex rite #hashtage

This is probably an old person thing and less specific to boomers, but saying some variation of "people are nuts these days, back then you could do XYZ without worrying about being shot/murdered/etc" when in fact things are generally safer and all around better from a public safety standpoint.

I sympathize though because perception of danger vs the reality of is hard for humans to understand and is why I get nervous on airplanes despite the fact I'm objectively much more likely to die on the drive to/from the airport. Probably has something to do with Boomers still watching local news so religiously and seeing all the reported murders to fill airtime.


Unrelatedly, my dad did a very unboomer thing and went from Bush apologist to center-left dem over the past decade. Didn't really happen because of some singular event, mostly just a variety of things he's dealt with personally and from the community involvement he participates in. He used to be very black and white when I was a kid (though maybe that was just him being a parent), but now he sees things in shades of grey and morally complex without falling into the "both sides in Charleston were flawed" argument.

I remember sometime in probably 1994 hoping that my dad would be appreciative that I wasn't listening to rap music, I played some Stone Temple Pilots. His response was "that was crap," and then I got a massive lecture about how the 70's was the best time for music because rock in the 50's was too immature, and then it grew up in the 70's, and now it's all crap.

There was definitely a big time dislike of rap music distilled in my parents, so I always listened to that in secret.

Dear Christ the Photoshop job on that cover/poster. I've probably seen that while mindlessly scrolling through Netflix, but I automatically ignore any of those "Old guys doin' one last thing!" movies. They're for boomers.

I watched that. I described it as "aggressively OK."

So aggressively OK that I forgot about it after a couple of days until that post.
