The more likely explanation for your not having experienced it yourself is that the numbers cited are bordering on silly. Millennials and Gen Z make up roughly 20% each of the population of the US [1], so something like 6 million each. The “study” polled roughly 1000 people. Drawing any conclusions at that sample size is pretty spurious, and even then, the percentages that agreed with the headline are in the 20 and 30% range.

A good set of ear plugs. My toddler can be pretty screamy and I find it a lot easier to be a rational parent when I have ear plugs in that don’t muffle all sounds, but just take the edge off the loud ones.

Hey all, I heard about Lemmy from Mastodon and thought I’d give it a shot. I was never much of a reddit user besides occasional lurking, mostly because the quality of discussions seemed pretty hit or miss. BeeHaw seems a lot nicer though, so I thought I’d give it a shot.

I use he/him/his pronouns. If privilege was a game of bingo, my particular demographics would likely be the free space. I try to acknowledge that and use it for good.

By day I’m a staff software engineer at a relatively large tech company (which means I write more docs than code most of the time), and by night I’m a cooking enthusiast, musician, sci fi novel fan, and exhausted parent of a toddler.
