Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

no it's the normal erasure of gen x from the timeline
The timeline goes
Old dead boomers
Dying wealthy boomers
Young poor boomers
Gen y
Millennials
Gen z
Gen alpha
Gen Y = millennials
The normal erasure of Millennial Falcons from the timeline?
Blame boomers. Millennials is their catchall term for whatever generation they're complaining about regardless if it's Millennials, Gen X, Z, Alpha, etc.
At the same time, I feel anyone under 25 describes anyone over 25 as boomer, so that ain't helping either lol.
