Convo today with a friend of my daughter:

Her: I have lots of #TaylorSwift merch.
Me: Really? Like what
Her: Lots of CDs, but I have no #CD player
Me: Did you rip your CDs?
Her: *Gasp* I would NEVER rip my CDs! Why would I do that?
Me: Ah. “Ripping” a CD means to turn its songs into #MP3
Her: What’s an MP3?

Narrator: and in that moment, Lloyd realised there were not 1, but 2 #Generational gaps at play because #streaming is the norm now.

Trump is the world’s most successful #generational #trauma example.

Father Fred was horrible to them, his brother Robert killed himself over it.

But DJT survived and traumatized a whole nation. Other experts in human trauma like Putin and KJI love him and speak his language.

We all need #therapy over the #Trump #Trauma at this point.

However, we don’t want to ruin your #BrosNightOut with some boring #feminist perspective, so we’re offering some alternative ways to have fun at the bar while keeping your fucking hands to yourself."

Millennials are having less sex than their parents did at their age. The setup of cameras, lighting and streaming really eats into the available time.

Maybe it’s a little late for an #introduction but here we go:
I’m Ornella. I live in Amsterdam. I’m from #France and #BurkinaFaso.
I came here from twitter hoping to find some answers re: my time and presence online — finding a better balance between knowledge and fun, socializing and privacy.
Some of my interests: #code, #drawing, #decolonization, #DIY, #family, #generational dialogue, #hardware, #languages, a bunch of other stuff I’m sure I’m forgetting
