The study found no evidence for boys or girls that heavier social media use or more frequent gaming increased teenagers’ symptoms of anxiety or depression over the following year.

    deterioration of polite society

    My parents’ generation, and mines have extremely different views on what “politeness” means. For them it means “respect my seniority, which means I should have authority over you,” not “I deserve dignity, so be generous at my circumstances.”

    My parents want me to submit to their insubordinations “because that is the polite thing to do.” Not if I can kiss my polycule in front of them because it makes this cis monogamous biases disgust.

    get off my lawn you kids!

    Yep, pretty much why we don’t respect landowners. Parasite scum.

          Snowflakes and boomers have the same toxic levels of self assurance in their righteousness, that’s why we have a reacctionary wave now, both worse generations in the last 100y are imposing upon others their orthodoxies with no time for empathy or dialogue. The one with the most money is winning, predictably.

            e.g. @[email protected]
            Why in the fuck do I get <3 day old accounts to reply to my nerdy posts, on a nerdy thread‽ And it’s not the only one! This one created an account JUST to deOP me.


            anyways, verdi, if you are a real frenchie, why do I have to care about boomer’s opinions that aren’t helping us compost the money havers?

            I am talking about how intent and meaning differ, esp. when jokes need setup and indications through generations.
