Someone posted this pic of Kamala Harris from the 80's and said she looks like she played synth for a German New Wave band and tbh I'll never be this cool.

Hey #millennials and #zoomers who are dealing with your first bout of panic over World War III: Find yourself a #GenX friend to help you see through it.
We spent our childhoods in the shadow of the nuclear #ColdWar, alone while our parents were at work, watching cartoons and eating unheated Pop-Tarts from the foil.
We got you.
As an aging #genX person let me be clear: if you’re my age and don’t support #trans rights, you’ve missed the fucking point. We’re the generation that created #cyberpunk as a genre. There is *nothing* more cyberpunk than self selecting your gender identity. 🏳️⚧️
It's kind of weird sitting next to old people at a table next to me talking about buying tickets to a Metallica/ Pantera show.

At work, when I test new systems and create accounts, I use names of fictional characters from books and tv. Recently, I used "Wolfman Jack" and my much younger team asked if that was a werewolf movie.
I had to explain Wolfman Jack was a DJ FROM THE 60s and 70s but he voiced an 80s Saturday morning cartoon called "Wolf Rock" where they showed music videos interspersed with a pretty bad scripted cartoon.
This is what we had for entertainment without cable.
