Kids today with their blue hair and pronouns.
Kids today with their baggy pants and rap music.
Kids today with their long hair and heavy metal music.
Kids today with their long hair and hippie music.
Kids today with their leather jackets and rock’n’roll music.
Kids today with their flapper outfits and jazz music.
Same as it ever was? Same as it ever was.
@zombierustpunk It seems like it's no longer fashionable to trash-talk millenials, but every time I read or heard it over the last few years I thought about what they used to say about Gen X.
We were, supposedly, nothing but a bunch of slackers who didn't have any interest in work.
It was sad to see so many people my age fall for the same stupid trick against the next generation.
@trainingmontage @zombierustpunk And our exams were way too easy, not like the O-levels that our parents did.
And now I hear the same thing about the exams my kids take!

As a kid in the 60's, I looked hopefully to the future when the people older than I saw fighting against war, FOR the trees, all those kids who just ten years older than I, going off to Woodstock, I looked to them to change things. But, by the 80's I saw very few of them creating real change---they were chasing money--and by the 2000's when I was in my 40's things were still unchanged.
And now, of course all those I looked up to are in their 70's and 80's and older and what a shit show.
They were the ones who were supposed to change everything.
