Millenials are a 'sandwich generation' btw taking care of the 'Gen X'ers' and 'Boomers' who were heavily influenced by the '1st 1/2 of the 20th c. cohorts'^1 (more than they would like to admit--I heard how Boomer and Gen X Germans had difficulties relating to their parents b/c of the complacency in the infamy of the 1930's, which in turn got a lot of it's momentum from prejudices which got 'dangerously bubbly' by the mid 1800s onwards --Otto Bismarck's nationalism apparently needed to unify and shlock like social Darwinism) and 'the Zoomers' who they 'want to relate to' despite steady changes in the relatability of the 'bells and whistles' (consumer tech and media) which hold the attention spans of those more developmentally disimilar and vulnerable..

Not to mention the offspring of 'the millenials who made it' even w/auto and living space ownership struggles.


* who were really more like a '19th c. part III' group so much than most would prefer to admit not only if you factor in how different tech exposure and literacy demographics let different attitudes thrive and what that meant when it comes to say outcomes of 'Flynn effect' graphs but

I part of me wants to know how to learn chess 'the old non-internet way' since* web based methods often rely on subscriptions of sorts before more reassuring amounts of resources to learn from. I say this previously having had a 'platinum' subscription on chess.com wherein I 'went through the motions' for the entire curicullum before something traumatic happened which compelled me to close my account, several months before it year lasting subcription expired.

I'm not too regretful of it, since I did it in the interest of having one less 'cloudy distraction' to a shake-up to my mental health which I've mainly processed now.

*I think this held true even before 'The queen's gambit' caught on

'Lichess' isn't too bad a site but not as easy to navigate through like 'chess.com' which is more customizable and has a lot of resources--or at least it seems that way w/the site design being easier to get around.

The negative I'd say about chess.com is how it's community can be cliquey and discouraging ( -_- go to there d--n forums and you'll see what I mean). An abundance of sophomoric disparagement even though the 'lit collection' in terms of chess theory and lessons resources, plus an active scene of altering articles w/non-English versions available at time is encouraging.

'Dr.Wolf' was an app I liked during a free trial, I had since for all of it's lack of customizableness having a little program/caricature giving me (if I so choose) direct feedback whilst playing, turned out to be 'what I didn't know what I was looking'. As simple as a craving for personal tutelage on a hobby can be, even w/how the logistics of doing so have changed w/the public health scene, paying to do so, paying chess coaches on 'chess.com' doesn't appeal much to me.

What I do regret is saying ~'I don't regret meeting you' to that twit of a past love interest who I would come to deeply regret re-encountering once again, years after we initially meet.

Reviews are apparently unfavourable but surely someone's noticed the resemblences btw 'The tomorrow war' and ' Live Die Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow' by now, haven't they ?.

If I have Amazon Prime does it mean I can watch that one 'Catch-22' adaptation w/George Clooney ?.

I'm wondering about what the science behind the drug which could make you more flexible would be like.

Going with parents on our way to a sort of furniture store where we will pick up a bed-frame for maternal grandparents.

At least according to my mom, customer service was lousy on various fronts.

Cool seeing one and later two rabbits on the edge of my aunt's residence as we went to drop off orthopedic mattresses for my grandparents..we're laying them out currently.

*sigh* how stupid apartment prices must be for the floor my maternal grandparents occupy while w/my aunt.
