"The seething din of millennials faded into the warming night, their cries of "the Beatles fucking suck" and "Boomers are to blame for all my failings" were dampened to silence by the mist, and drown by the morning dew.
But they'd be awake by early afternoon, only to start the plaintive ritual again; the melancholy wailing bouncing off the backlit screens and cereal boxes surrounding them, while members of other generations, working, raising families, contributors all, heard nothing of it. The local flora turned as deaf an ear as the fauna, and the cloudless sky, too; and so continued the spiteful blameful opera voiced by the directionless adherents of America's voluntary class of malding malaisial millennials."

-- Magnus Olympus, from The Saddest Clowns in the World

The tinker in his burial tree was a wonder to the birds. The vultures that came by day to nose with their hooked beaks among his buttons and pockets like outrageous pets soon left him naked of his rags and flesh alike. Black mandrake sprang beneath the tree as it will where the seed of the hanged falls and in spring a new branch pierced his breast and flowered in a green boutonniere perennial beneath his yellow grin. He took the sparse winter snows upon what thatch of hair still clung to his dried skull and hunters that passed that way never chanced to see him brooding among his barren limbs. Until wind had tolled the tinker’s bones and seasons loosed them one by one to the ground below and alone his bleached and weathered brisket hung in that lonesome wood like a bone birdcage.

Checked. I am a zoomer, and fine to be one, but I do look with some envy at the full-hearted attempts at socialization and community-building the millennials put forth.

Drinking craft beer while you play oversized Connect 4 at a trendy brewery with exposed lights is more appealing to the soul than cycling through steam games in a discord channel. Both pale in comparison to the boomer grill-out block-party, but eh, that's the degradation of time for ya

Some of the specific tasks listed are corny or obsolete but the principle is good.
You have no excuse for not accruing skills. To stop learning is to mentally stagnate, like a shark that stops swimming.

This board is obviously just another shithole full of idpol shitflinging and not a place to discuss anything seriously, so I feel no remorse in adding to that depressive reality with this post. As far as millenials vs zoomers go it’s not even a debate. Likely each generation is progressively worse than the last and zoomers being worse, and being born into and living in a much worse world, certainly holds true. That’s not even debatable.

Millennials had 9/11 and zoomers had George Floyd. Millennials brought war and hell to far away lands and returned home to a world that wasn’t drowning in DEI and cuck porn. Millennials grew up with much less “ass wiping” technology. Technology designed to rob you of your own ability to wipe your own ass because it does and always has done it for you. Etc….

I hate this century so much. I weep for gen alpha

humanity peaked in late 19th century rural america.
>>24996159
we may be living in a worse world but, like gen x, it feels like the silent majority of us is aware of that. how many millenials knew about waco and ruby ridge when they happened? even if they did, most would've trusted the government narrative because times were a lot better economically. that said, a lot of us are having issues balancing life and tech admittedly yeah, and that problem is only gonna get worse for the poor alphas.

No, you hick.
You mean AMERICAN Millennials.
"Millennials" neither means nor implies "American Millennials" but you meant "American Millennials" and wrote "Millennials".
The content of what you wrote, though, is good.
If it makes you feel any better, the fact that Alphas have been surrounded by hypocritical propaganda all their school-lives has resulted in them acquiring a kind of practical cynicism. They hear the teachers preach equality, while watching them favour certain groups. They see fellow students 'corrected' for wrongthink and asking obvious questions, so they have learned to never reveal their true thoughts or feelings to authority figures.
Younger zoomers are like this, too.
This bodes well for the future, imo.

Millennials are so fucking weak and pathetic. I can at least kinda respect boomers for their complete no fucks given ruthless self interest. Genx is lol lmao even tier. No one will ever care about those fags. Millennials are basedjak incarnate. Desperate for approval and validation from boomers who rightfully shit on them . Manchildren extraordinaires. Handling their growing age, receeding hairlines, and cultural irrelevance with even less grace than boomers. I have nothing but contempt and disdain for them.

What creates nitpicking faggots like you? Did you get sexually molested or something or is it just something people like you are born with?
>>
>>24997794
thanks for the whitepill, anon. wouldn't be surprised if the ignorant cultural elite just keeps doubling down on these ideas too, gradually turning white nationalism mainstream. the situation is already a lot better than it was ten years ago, you can now speak of demographic replacement as a bad thing in the overton window without being smeared as a hitlerite.
>>
>>24998366
Yeah, sure, I suppose if your measurement of both quality of life and the abstract value of human capital is heavily influenced by “whether or not people believe cable news” then yeah it’s a real white pill.
