Shoutout to all the 1997-2001 kids who are somehow hybrids of millennials and gen z. We are the Ultimate Generation of 90’s nostalgia and new age internet depression.
This is actually super interesting, because I feel like this group witnessed the massive technological change in both our schools and our society. I’m a senior in high school this year, and my school relies heavily on chromebooks - almost everything we do is online. However, I still remember the days when we had a chunky projector on wheels in the room with clear plastic slides that you had to write on in dry erase pen. I still remember when teachers relied almost entirely on chalkboards, and I remember whenever we watched a movie, the teacher would have to roll in this giant old T.V. with a VCR player. Only recently, my school replaced the crusty old textbooks with online ones. Us 1997-2001 are the only age group that truly witnessed that shift. School isn’t the only place where society has changed - when I was a child, we had a house phone. We got rid of the house phone in when I was in grade, so I got a little slide cell phone. In 9th grde, I got an iPhone, and now I can barely imagine life without it. It’s just interesting, because we really LIVED that shift growing up - it’s what defined our childhood. It’s like we have knowledge of the school system from two different eras.
do waitresses know that i love them and appreciate everything they do
i had the nicest waitress today who told me my outfit was cute and i wish i was rich cuz I would’ve tipped her so much more if I could
If you ever actually wanna help your waitress out, ask to speak to their manager before you leave and then tell the manager how awesome they are. Trust me, it makes a difference. Servers who get compliments from guests and customers get better hours, and the more you’re liked by the people who come in the more forgiving the bosses are when shit goes awry (say if you’re sick or you have a flat so you’re late, etc). Tell the manager. Do it! Aside from tipping it’s one of the best things you can do for us. Tell the manager you thought we were great. Tell the manager that we’re the reason you’re gonna come back. Talk us up! It’s a little like job security - if you tell the manager we’re the reason you’re here, they’re gonna be a lot more reluctant to let us go because then they’re losing your business, and they don’t want that.
this is good advice, thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
And managers are SO SURPRISED AND PLEASED when you ask to compliment, rather than complain. They really listen.
also be like “Can I tell your manager how amazing you are?” so they’re not worried about what you’re going to say. be effusive. say you come for their wonderful service.
“it’s a human insult. it’s devastating. you’re devastated right now.”
i feel like why the aziz ansari case is polarising and why so many men as well as women (many of whom have previously been supportive of #metoo) are adamant that it wasn’t sexual assault is because if you accept that coercion is not consent, then a lot of men have to accept that they have inflicted non consensual sex acts upon women/people. and if women admit that coercion isn’t consent than they have to accept that they had non consensual sexual acts inflicted upon them.
and whilst explicit and repeated consent is important, the focus on “no means no” has left some people acting like ten no’s and a single defeated yes means yes. also that due to societal conditioning or pressure, women or more vulnerable people may not say a clear and firm “no” but rather a quiet and placating “i’d rather not” or “if you don’t mind can we do something else”
I think another aspect is that accepting non physical coercion as a kind of sexual assault forces women to admit that they are capable of sexual assault. I think many people, and plenty of women, have had sex with someone who wasn’t really into it, and have ignored soft/nonverbal “no”s, and comfort themselves with the idea that it’s not really rape since they never blocked the door or whatever
I really thought I liked you a lot but really disappointed in your stance on aziz. He did nothing wrong......... fuck
Something David Klion wrote, “The Aziz Ansari story is a good litmus test for who sees sexual misconduct as a strictly legal question and who is concerned about improving the overall culture surrounding sex and dating. It’s also many times more relevant to the average person’s experience than, say, Weinstein.” So if you’re disappointed in me because I find a grown man in his almost mid 30s acting like an entitled teenager who just discovered sex and “doesn’t realize” when somebody he’s with isn’t interested in what he’s doing because he’s “not a mind reader” then I could give a fuck if you liked me. Men should be held to the same standards of emotional awareness and maturity with sex, with everything else.
hey im curious… tag this with what pet name youd want your lover to call u most. baby or sweetheart etc
remember when stephanie meyers was so desperate to tie up the loose ends of her love triangle that the paired off the extra dude with the couple’s newborn baby

Millennial culture is having two wildly different conversations with the same person on two different apps at the exact same time
conversation 1: cheese borger
conversation 2: that’s why I think I’m so afraid of making myself vulnerable, because my father taught me I couldn’t ever truly trust anyone
so here’s a thought: who cares if food stamp recipients test positive for drugs. we still deserve food.
this has been the single most controversial post I’ve ever made and it’s literally just saying drug users deserve food lmao
