minus-square@Sendbeer@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish10•10 months ago I think the reality is, “boomer” as a term is here to stay and a moving target: as gen x ages into 40+ This is a nitpick, but gen x moved into the 40+ age group long ago. As a gen Xer I’ll be in my 50’s later this year. 🤮 And yeah, doom is peak Gen X probably.
