Generation X: the bridge between analog and digital, raised on mixtapes and street smarts, adapting to every shift with quiet resilience. Independent yet collaborative, skeptical but hopeful. We’re the latchkey kids who grew into leaders, thriving in chaos
MAGA attacked what Biden was doing while comparing it to what Trump "would do" creating a fight between what was happening and what might happen under Trump.
It's time to look forward and make that same argument, but someone needs to step to the front (Tim Walz..)

James Bovard:

"Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner."

Albert Einstein:

"Politics is a pendulum whose swings between anarchy and tyranny are fueled by perennially rejuvenated illusions."

focus and discipline are incredibly powerful tools that can lead to extraordinary outcomes, for better or worse. It's a reminder that the ability to stay focused is neutral; it’s the direction of one’s intent and values that shapes whether the results build or destroy.

When life feels dull and joy seems distant, take a moment to reflect on what you’re truly grateful for. Its a simple act that will help you see what your life genuinely needs, rather than the distractions boredom creates, allowing you to take purposeful steps toward fulfillment.

If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site.

Lately, it feels like we’re living in an era of collective forgetting—where memories of notable figures, past political norms, and cultural milestones seem to fade. As a Gen Xer, I wonder: is this something every generation feels, or does it only happen during certain points in history?
