I‘m sorry but..girlboss and hustle culture? I only remember "YOLO" and "treat yo self" financial habits. Do I have to turn in my millenial membership card somewhere now?

I noticed a lot of 92-96ish babies feel the same way. Either they agree with most of both Millennial stuff and the Gen Z stuff, or they really don't relate to either for whatever reason.

Grew up on the whole "bootstraps and fuck you" because that's how my family was raised (staunchly god fearing), now I'm like "I've upcycled my bootstraps to a noose because fuck this capitalistic hellscape". But I don't know where that puts me xD

"god fearing" means their worldview is one of dictators and dictated, and even their spirituality is based around the ultimate dictator in the north korea in the sky

Yeah, I'm in that bracket and I relate to both. More-so the zoomers really. Generations are arbitrary anyway.
