This is my conversational account. For my work follow @ribbonfarm, @breaking_smart, @artofgig. Tweets are 90% vacuous views, apathetically held. Mediocritopian.

    The world will bounce back psychologically if not economically in about 3y, but i very unevenly. Zoomers will turn into a conservative generation like Silents (depression era kids), GenX will kinda give up and pass the torch to Millennials a decade early. It’s up to millennials.

        do you mean that zoomers will be more frugal with money or change into a more conservative nature politically?

        GenX has been trained its whole life to believe that it's the Boomers who have the political power. While we follow the rules and wait for our turn the Millennials figure out the trick is to break the whole systems. They already own it, they just need to lead.
