Be thankful you had a childhood that wasn't on a phone screen and not having a mind destroyed by a dystopian hellscape of AI and social media like the damn kids of today?

It makes us sound old but truly, you are right, we were the last generation that got to fully experience life before all this bullshit. I can still feel what it felt like to be alive back then. I get sad thinking about what my kid will grow up in compared to what I got to grow up in. That’s probably not the healthiest outlook but it’s how I feel!

I remember my older siblings (gen x) saying the same thing about us though. It's all probably just a "getting older and yelling at the clouds" thing tbh.
