Es ist mir unangenehm, das zuzugeben. Aber ich musste vorhin mal wieder über den #Weihnachtsmarkt gehen und dachte: "Ach, eigentlich wirkt es doch ganz nett hier..."

Ich vermute zweierlei: Einerseits werde ich einfach alt und weich und harmoniebedürftig.
Andererseits sind die Schausteller_innen auch lernfähig und fähig zur Marktanalyse. Sie schaffen es, die Fress-und Trinkbuden an diesen eigenartigen #GenX / #Xennial / #GenY Geschmack* anzupassen.

Changing out of my "Staying-Indoors" jogging pants and into my pair of "Running errands and might run into someone I know" jogging pants.

Edit: No actual jogging was done while wearing either pair of pants.

Found on Reddit, where it was credited to «The Nostalgic Latino, from Facebook.»

Edit: …but apparently they are not the first ones to make the joke as there seem to be an inflation of this video. First time I saw it tho.

Synchronized 80s kid moment...

Me (picking up a butter knife): I got the knife.
Husband and I in sync: I-I-I-I-I want da knife!
10 year old: What the heck?

Son: It's 90s day for homecoming week at school tomorrow. What should I wear?

Me and wife: THIS IS OUR TIME TO SHINE!!

It’s still weird for this #Xennial to do anything non-anonymous on social media, but I now have a TikTok to promote my podcasts.

I have no idea what I’m doing. 😂 Follow me: we can be lost together!

One time in college, this guy walked up to me and handed me a note without saying a word. I read the note aloud: "Will you marry me?" His face lit up and he replied, "Yes!"
I must have lost that one, but I did keep the follow-up note.

I only ever knew him as K.
We ran into one another multiple times, but I never learned very much about him. He earned a couple of pages in my art scrapbook.
I hope K is doing well these days.

A drawing and text in black charcoal on a scrap of white paper. The drawing is of a stick figure clown with large shoes, a round body, and a head with curly hair and a pointed hat. The text “I love you!” is attributed to the Robot Clown. Today is My lucky Day - 22 Sep 2004. Signed by K.A page from a scrapbook containing two notes and a film photograph. The photo shows two college-aged white men in an art studio. One might guess from their apparel and expressions that they could be stoners. One note, blue ink on the back of a receipt, says “You are very interesting” along with a spiral and the letter K. Another note in black marker says “Are we still engaged?” The owner of the scrapbook has written “K is an enigma.” in red marker.
Who remembers Peace Frogs??
If I ever went back to college, I'd be tempted to tape up those ragged holes and pop this bad boy into my trapper.

The website is apparently defunct, but I wonder if Dale from Plymouth is still accepting mail at that address...

The front of a school folder from the late 1990s. It features an illustration of a bright green frog with bulging black eyes like an alien, holding up one hand in a peace sign, against a black background with white stars. Peace Frogs is labelled at the bottom in a glowing green outline.A closeup of the inside of the folder, a glowing green outline of the Peace Frogs logo against the same starry black background.

UPDATE: Pulled all the Coursera's videos (from the course I was taking) by opening the embedded frame in a new browser window and using Chrome's Inspector.

I'm no Pir8, but I know a little bit. Grew up in the jUAREZ era of BBSs downloading 45-50 disks of DOOM! (or whatever it was at the time)

I'm old enough to remember when I could easily swap out the battery on my phone, and it was part of the design! #GenX #Xennial #Goonie

“We’re a small generation, often overlooked, but we’ve lived through more change than most—from mixtapes to Spotify, from faxes to WhatsApp, from digital revolution to AI. And because we existed in that liminal space, we carry a weird dual wisdom: we know how to live offline, but we can thrive online, too.” I’m a katycowan.co.uk/blog/getting-o
