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

`_` When I think about it, in terms of 'tone' the liveaction 'Sweet tooth' adaptation reminds me of 80's Don Bluth movies..I mean that in a good way not the least since it's a bit less bleak than how the original comics were like Cormic McCarty's (?) 'The road' w/a hybrid protagonist.

I have privilege of starting work relatively late today but it doesn't change how difficult I find it to begin sleeping in the first place/how I self-critical I am for not transitioning to sleep more comfortably and promptly.

Today might've marked the 2nd instant this week in which I woke up in a somewhat 'panicky' 'Oh s--t :I !, I'll be/I'm late !' kind of way, to my chagrin.

Gj:breakfast
chat w/a listener earlier
being able to enter the workplace earlier since new mall openings are possible w/'Stage 3' present in the city
experience at work and library members not being too bothered whence I wasn't able to provide as fine an answer
being fine-ish w/knowing different elements to my tasks in that position at least w/'Stage 3' around
being heard out by my typical higher-ups and security staff regarding a locker issue
reading about 'Space jam: a new legacy'
the friendliness of a three legged dog and the familiarity of another dog while outing w/a family dog

(Gj+-Gj (?)) being able walk the dog even w/the rushing countdown to work

not being able to open my lock despite knowing the combo and the cutting of it which delayed me leaving work earlier
the hassle of going back and forth btw ppl due to a (~'suitcase' style (?)) lock not unlocking
not finding twist ties
the quasi-hassle of finding a publically shared bike to use
jarring things said to my mom plus dialogue earlier while in a parking a/o traffic tension w/something

Not up to commenting on this for now but I would like to say how I found it at least a sensibly upbeat even if it might come off only as merely 'hippy-dippy' lto those who never understand nor can really ever palette anything non-secular, Abrahamic runner device or otherwise

D--n how restricted we've become but NO ONE takes socializing anymore seriously !.
