I'm pointing this out not to be pedantic, but because the Reagan and the Bush Sr. years were pretty dark and I think that really shaped Gen X.
But coming of age during the Clinton years suggested that life was going to be ok there was hope. I can only speak for myself but

Millennials are too young to really remember Reagan or Bush Sr. (unless they were super precocious about politics). Elder millennials/Xennials lived through it but as children. Clinton is the first one they might remember
I mean yeah. Look at the lifetime of your average millennial:
Reagan: Ugh
Bush Sr: More of the same
Clinton: Meh
Bush Jr: Lots of bad
Obama: OK this is good
Trump I: Fuck
Biden: There were SOME good things here
Trump II: Fuckity fuck fuck fuck
Reagan: Ugh

obama was probably the best president of our lifetime and biden the second

Linear time exists. A skyrocket in funding happened in the OBBBA, the Republican budget passed through reconciliation without even 1 Democrat. Take the smoke you ignorantly have for MINORITY Leader Schumer & MINORITY Leader Jeffries & give it to MAJORITY Leader Thune & SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE Johnson.

A smart decision since you don’t want to overexpose Mike Tirico. Let him rest after the NBA season ends and have someone like Jason Benetti call SNB

Important to understand there is a difference between proper constructive criticism and just mindlessly bashing something for easy clout because it happened to be the internet mob's hated film/TV show/game of the week. The latter of which I feel is a trap many online reviewers fall into.
I'm seeing a lot of people today claim that negative criticism of games is overvalued or overrepresented and that's...just not true? The incentives are very clearly on the side of positivity, whereas giving a game a bad review is almost guaranteed to get you at least some hate mail

“Things can only get worse” — yeah tell that to young closet gay me who got to watch the entire country agree to ban gay marriage and look the other way when a dude not much older than me was literally drug to death behind a pick up for being gay in rural Wyoming.
Here’s my point. Things would be better then they are now if Kamala had been elected, but I do not believe they would be better than before she was elected.

Those who supported this shit should have known from the beginning how this was going to go.
It is your responsibility as a voter to be informed and make judgements based on your knowledge.

The GOP stole Florida in 2000, but the election only hinged on Florida because Gore lost New Hampshire. Only time since the 80s a Dem has ever lost NH.
If just *A THIRD* of Nader's voters in NH had voted Gore instead, he wouldn't have even needed Florida.
THAT'S what I'm referring to.

I explained why he’s wrong and he turned off replies so I gotta qt to call this guy a moron for not knowing that Al Gore literally WON the 2000 election and the Republicans just straight-up stole it. AI is obviously evil but one could probably replace this guy and nobody would notice.

If voting didn't matter, Republicans wouldn't be trying so desperately to disenfranchise voters and otherwise rig elections.
If someone claims otherwise, they're simply acting in bad faith.

I keep seeing these weird takes about Usha Vance being trapped in her marriage. Y'all, that's a grown ass adult. She made her choices, and she's made no effort to change direction. Respect her agency. She chose this. There is no need to make excuses for her complicity. That's weird and sexist.

I'm coming around to the idea that the firebomb-a-walmart people who are complaining about voting aren't just dooming, they fundamentally do not believe in democracy.
We're fighting for liberal democracy, they're fighting to be the ones in charge of a dictatorship. Those two are incompatible.

yes correct voting is the one and only way citizens in a democracy directly wield political power
unless you are firebombing a walmart anything else you are doing in the political sphere has an effectiveness that ultimately functions via voting

It was beaten into my head growing up that voting is the MOST IMPORTANT THING you can do, that it's what political action IS. And yes, ive had several liberal friends/family tell me that if I want better things I need to vote for them. Thats that. They literally can't imagine anything more.

I am telling you my very honest belief that I no longer understand what Democrats stand for.
I feel quite strongly they put corporate interests over their constituents. And this sort of behavior tells me they think what matters is the magic words that get them elected.
I'm tired of it.
