    Ha, that’s a mood; I have a theory about how the millennial/gen Z practical cut off is especially socioeconomically dependent — as you describe, it’s possible to resonate with millennial motifs way more depending on where you grew up. I think you effectively demonstrate how limited generational categories can be, especially if we treat them like hard boundaries between groups
