I’m waiting. . .

Any time now...

Hah! Good luck getting her to interrupt her snapchat streak to do ANYTHING. She probably hasn't even cleaned out the microwave this week.

CyberKitten said...

I'm not... [grin] No 'hero' is coming to 'save' us....

CyberKitten said...

Don't hold your breath. We're FAR too fixated on the 'hero' narrative. Often its an excuse for not getting off our *own* asses and doing something!

CyberKitten said...

That's why this sort of thing happens *after* the collapse. No Internet, no TikTok, no excuse NOT to be a revolutionary.... [grin]

Oh, we are doing stuff, don't you worry. But having a decisive figure to rally around is helpful. Luigi is the start.

What a gross stereotype.

CyberKitten said...

That would make her at the tail end of Gen Z, being a bit young (apparently) for Gen Alpha. We had some Gen Z interns @ work just before I left. I was *very* impressed by both of them. VERY smart, VERY keen... Nice people too.... The myths were definitely exploded by that pair....

Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Taken said...

Yep. Gen Z is going to save the world. And I have high hopes for Gen Alpha (Eleanor’s) also. You get it.

CyberKitten said...

Unfortunately, I think that Gen Z and Gen Alpha are going to HAVE to save the world - from US actually! Poor bastards.............

Let's Read said...

Your word in the ears of Isaac Newton or whoever is there to help us.

CyberKitten said...

[grin] Oh, I'm afraid that we're going to have to help ourselves....

I felt so comforted by the lead-up to the election, to see such massive involvement from the youngest generation able to vote. I hope they are not discouraged by the results, because we need them more than ever.
