When Laura Ingraham was a student at Dartmouth, she attended a meeting of the Gay Student Union and wrote down the names of the attendees, which she then published in the student newspaper. This was a time when it was very dangerous to be outed as gay. She is a dispicable, vile person.

Just Dance Vance says Trump is going to ‘serve out the remainder of his term', but if God forbid, there is a terrible tragedy' he cannot think of 'better on the job training' than what he has received in the past 200 days. Apparently "on the job training" includes nine family vacations in 200 days..

Yes!! And there's also Xennials for late boren Gen Xers and elder Millennials. I am firmly Gen X being born smack in the middle of the generation, but I could lean Xennial because part of my 20s were in the early 2000s.

Aisha K. Staggers (@akstaggers.bsky.social) reply parent
That's an anomaly. When I was in high school, all my friends parent pretty much went to high school with my dad. Same age, same generation. All my friends now our parents are around 74-76. We're all 50-52. Now millenials I know have parents in those years that are the last years of Boomers like 1964
Aisha K. Staggers (@akstaggers.bsky.social)
If the generation before Boomers were mostly the parents of Gen X---which were mostly born in the 70s, they'd have been mid to late 30s-40s when they had children and we know this to not be a "thing" that was happening until the 2000s. In fact, Millennials are having children later.
Aisha K. Staggers (@akstaggers.bsky.social)
I used to be a stats professor. Your understanding of the generations is off the mark! The majority of Gen X has Boomer parents. That is a fact. The Census has that data. Your words: "Boomers are not the parents of Gen X" without a qualifier. Therefore, "all" can reasonably be assumed.
