This morning when my alarm went off I was deeply dreaming, which is unusual to me.
And, I was dreaming about being miserably stuck in a very much not stepparent-friendly breakout exercise at a PTA event at my stepkids' school
while the Greatest American Hero theme song blasted over the school cafeteria PA system
and somehow that just feels absolutely fucking peak #GenX

Hubs showed me the video of Dave Grohl and Billie Eilish doing “My Hero” live and I cried and I miss live music so much, and I am officially
“I wish rock shows played matinees” years old

The #GapDream references in the new season of #Letterkenny led me down the path of trying (unsuccessfully) to find the name of my other (more obscure) favorite high school / college fragrance. Then, for no particular reason, I felt inspired to plug earrings into all eight of my ear piercings for the 1st time in about 15 years. Reading a novel where the 40 y/o protagonist is transported back to her 16th y/o self, with Sassy magazine references and other familiar throwbacks. #90s #GenX #nostalgia

New season of #Letterkenny dropped today
first line of the first episode had a Gap Dream reference
(Gap Dream was my first year of college fragrance)(brings back memories 🤣)
This is a very deep popular press dive into the #GenX - #GenZ emoji-use divide. But in some ways, what’s most interesting about it is the part about how Gen Z had grown up to expect rapid communication bc of texting and now they’re apparently confused when people don’t respond to email immediately and outside of business hours. Lol, the olds for the work-life balance win? (This is a 🎁 link to WaPo)

If you want to know what it's like being Peak #genx this is very informative. And hard to watch.

@ablackcatstail Add to that that I’m a late #GenX girl that grew up in the #USA without non-emergent #healthcare much less #mentalhealthcare and I really had no chance at being identified early. I’m just getting started at #unmasking and find that I still default to #masked with unknowns irl. It’s a process.

You can call me Mal. I'm a #GenX / #Millennial cusp, a #LateBloomer #lesbian 🌈 and have recently discovered my #LateDiagnosedAutism. I also have #adhd, #CPTSD, and a handful of other #MentalHealth issues and I'm currently still trying to recover from burnout due to Covid and learn how to function in the real world again. Learning how to accommodate myself has been a life changing experience. My long distance girlfriend is also autistic and it has been so beneficial to have someone who truly understands as a support person. Other things of note are that I'm a #leftist #feminist and believe in #IntersectionalFeminism, always work to be actively #AntiRacist, and believe mutual aid and building community is the best and only way for us all to survive late stage capitalism.
My #SpecialInterests include talking about and researching topics like #psychology, #trauma, anti-capitalism, and the communication differences between #autistics and #allistics.
For fun I like to play #WorldOfWarcraft and read the lore books. I've been playing since Cataclysm came out and my favorite characters are #AnduinWrynn, #VarokSaurfang, #Illidan, and #KaelthasSunstrider. My favorite class to play is a Demon Hunter and my favorite expansion was Legion. I also love the #DragonAge games, specifically the second one, the show #GameOfThrones, and frequently lose large chunks of time playing #thesims4. I am also currently hyperfixating on Taylor Swift's new album even though I have never liked her music before 😂
I live in a very rural, very conservative area so I'm really hoping to find other people like me, specifically other #lesbians, who I can connect with. So if any of this resonates with you, let's be mutuals 🌈💗

Dear everybody: when a #GenX person flips you off, that action carries exactly as much emotional weight as a New York City cab driver honking the horn.

#linguist with #CogSci vibes and an interest in #philsci now working in industry (w occasional academic foray) on #speech and #NLP adjacent things with #Python
weekend #bassist (CAKE, VF, Police, Meters when I'm feeling ambitious) but too shy/self-critical to play with others
#leftist at heart (weak on praxis)

Seeing the #introduction hashtag — here’s mine: I’m #GenX (a/k/a the forgotten generation), am almost never without a book (hence the handle) and enjoy #papercrafting as a hobby. My sports teams are the #NYYankees and #BuffaloBills . My preferred politicians are kind, intelligent and value #humanrights #environment and #votingrights . I’m still on #birdsite but it feels like metaphorical earthquakes are happening over there! Look forward to chatting about #books with everyone.
