Gen X: You're bleeding out! How would you rate your pain?!
Gen Z, looking at stab wound: Zero stars, would not recommend.
Millennial: Who the hell would recommend getting stabbed?!

the post that says: "hi tumblr, I'm older than your mom probably"
I've never feel more like a pathetic old crank regretting the passage of time than when I get chills listening to the first 55 seconds of Spacehog's hit from 1995.

Just want to thank Good Omens and Our Flag Means Death for providing middle aged representation. The majority of the actors are over 40 and portray characters who are fierce, vulnerable, silly, passionate, complex, and sexy as hell. In a Hollywood world that worships youthful bodies and faces and thinks 25 is old, thank you for featuring a more mature cast. It’s refreshing.

I don’t even go here, but if the Buck 9-1-1 backlash (outside of tumblr spaces lmao) has taught me anything, it’s that there is still an inherent level of biphobia that exists within homophobia and that many people still do not comprehend/believe that bisexuality is a real thing.
“I can’t believe they made him gay!”
Actually, he’s bisexual.
“But he’s been with so many women!”
Yes, because he’s bisexual.
“So he just suddenly likes men now??”
Yes, that is included in being bisexual.

THE PLUTO IN CAPRICORN GENERATION'S ATTITUDE IS THE PROOF THAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH A PARADIGM SHIFT
The average 4 year old spends more than 3 hours each day in front of a screen. Isolated, with no human interaction and their ability to read human emotions and perform complex cognitive functions declining constantly.
The Pluto in Capricorn generation holds a direct mirror to our socioeconomic and technological structures.
Pluto = breaking, transforming, war, power games, death, metamorphosis
Capricorn = socio-economic structures and organization, careers, institutions
After the 2008 crisis and COVID-19 AND the current silent depression we are moving through, looking at the way children of that generation behave, shows us where our societal constructions failed. So here are some observations :
- Many Pluto in Capricorn kids want to pursue a career path out of the norm. They want to be influencers or own online businesses. Very few of them are interested in traditional paths of wealth like banking and finance.
- They don't have respect for school and education because they feel like it doesn't teach them enough. Most of the kids also went through 2 years of online school and they missed out on the social perks the schooling experience provides.
- Violence. This generation is mad at the system. They quiet quit. They hate supervisors and "gurus" and they are also looking for extremely masculine figures, like Andrew Tate. A few days ago I stumbled upon the Candace Owens talk with Andrew Tate and he appeared a bit "reformed". Guess what? The young men in the comment section did not like his slightly changed views on marriage and women.
- This kids consider Facebook and Instagram "old". They like crypto and decentralised platforms. They are simultaneously very street smart but not that interested in formal education.
- It feels like these kids had to grow up very fast in a world that seems unforgiving and harsh. They may be more unemotional and less empathetic, especially if personal placements support that.
