Boomers walk off with the spoils and leave the rest of us holding the bill, basking in the largesse of a post-war boom they had no hand in creating and every hand in hoarding. They lived large, laughed hard, and left Millennials with a finely-tuned hamster wheel, sleek and efficient but going nowhere. The Millennials patch the leaks and polish the machine, convinced they are saving the world while spinning endlessly in circles, mouths full of corporate “disruption” rhetoric that goes stale before it even hit the air. Then come the Zoomers, born into a world already on fire, crawling through the wreckage of 2008, 2020, and everything in between. They have hustle, sure, but hustling on the edge of a cliff doesn’t get you far. Precarity is their inheritance—gig work, burnout, and the permanent anxiety of a future that never arrives. The System doesn’t even bother pretending to work for them.

And then there’s Gen X—forgotten and unattended, the feral middle children of history. Raised in the shadows of boom-time decadence but left to their own devices when the world moved on, they had just enough prosperity to stay afloat and just enough neglect to stay interesting. They haven’t been drafted into the System hamsterism like Millennials or crushed by precarity like Zoomers. Instead, they linger on the sidelines, ignored with nothing much to do but brood, scheme, and waste time thinking shit. The kind of shit that don’t fit neatly into the hamster accessories playground mazes. The kind of thoughts that break loops and set fires.
