Generation X (1965–1980):
• Ages 46 to 61
• Looking somewhere between 29 and “none of your business”
• Didn’t grow up sheltered — we were basically turned loose outdoors
• Independent at 10; still refusing to act like adults at 50
• Our childhood would make a modern parent group chat implode
Which is why our internal mantra remains: “It’ll work out. I’ve got this.”

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social I appear to be not any generation (1963): not X, not a boomer

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social Gen X were the biggest Trump voters 👍🏻 the voters least civically engaged, and least likely to protect women’s rights. Not a flex.

@Strandjunker@mstdn.social We are the last Generation that had bloody knees and didn't care about at all. No adults around to pamper you. In the summertime TVs were nearly abandoned, exceptions were the absolute must series, which came once a week.
