As a fellow Gen Zer I feel like there is a generational gap. I want to see if I’m trippin or there actually is one.

      That’s so lame 😔 you mean my years of reading books, playing original Pokemon games on java phone, reading Barefoot Gen manga and loving Down the Waterfront were wasted because I came to exist at a time when my entire generation is from Ohio?

        Ha, that’s a mood; I have a theory about how the millennial/gen Z practical cut off is especially socioeconomically dependent — as you describe, it’s possible to resonate with millennial motifs way more depending on where you grew up. I think you effectively demonstrate how limited generational categories can be, especially if we treat them like hard boundaries between groups
