Just found out about Xennials, GenX-Millennials, also known as the Oregon Trail Generation and Generation Catalano, demographic on the pod (not sure which one tbh) and while I'm definitely not one, I do know people who are, and it is a bit of an obscure "generation" as meaningless as a lot of those labels are.
They typically were around and active when personal computers and the internet as we know it starting coming up, but they also remember a time when things were very much still analog as well. That has to be a weirder one cause they likely don't ID with both GenX and all the shit millennials grew up watching or doing.
It is weird. Too young for Gen X culture, too old for stuff like Harry Potter. Growing up alongside the internet, however, was indescribably cool.
Even just like 15 years ago the internet was insane. Message boards sucked in a lot of ways and in others were quite good. Also there was clearnet drug sites operating like crazy and were super legit lol
Honestly, I think watching in real time as platforms like Facebook and Twitter grimly foreclosed on the creative and experimental possibilities of the early internet was a large factor in my radicalization.
