minus-square@Sendbeer@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish10•2 years ago I think the reality is, “boomer” as a term is here to stay and a moving target: as gen x ages into 40+ This is a nitpick, but gen x moved into the 40+ age group long ago. As a gen Xer I’ll be in my 50’s later this year. 🤮 And yeah, doom is peak Gen X probably.
minus-square@CoggyMcFee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish7•2 years agoIn fact, millennials have begun turning 40 already. Not everybody agrees on generation cutoffs, but I don’t think there’s anyone who considers someone born in 1984 to still be Gen X.
