I find that one of the healthiest and better things that happened to me in recent times, as I become older (41 this next march 2023), was to overcome the dark pull of Kids And Their Phones These Days(TM). It's not all my merit, I must admit - it started happening naturally, simply by being more exposed to younger people online - and then when I noticed that, I told myself "oh right - yes, this is good, I oughta see this through" and I actively set out to finish the job.

I will say it's very surprising, however, how we can lack the perspective to recognize in ourselves that which we despised (rightfully) when it was done to us.

I don't even know how to tag this, #boomercore #boomer #zoomer ?
