A quotation from George Orwell

Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.

George Orwell (1903–1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1945-12), Review of Herbert Read, A Coat of Many Colours, Poetry Quarterly, Vol. 7, No. 4 (1945, Winter)

I’ve been observing human behavior lately and noticed a fascinating pattern. Many older men and women would gladly take advice from their fellow elders or even listen to a very young child before they ever consider taking advice from a youth (young adult).

It's like youth are caught in a blind spot—too young to have "lived experience" in the eyes of elders but too old to have the pure innocence of a child.

Why do you think older generations find it so hard to take advice from youth? Is it a matter of respect, ego, or a generation gap? Let’s talk below! 🧠💭

Boosts are welcome for a wider reach. 🚀

A quotation from Bob Dylan

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don’t criticize
What you can’t understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin’
Please get out of the new one if you can’t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin’

Bob Dylan (b. 1941) American singer, songwriter
Song (1964), “The Times They Are A-Changin', v. 4”

A quotation from Montesquieu

It is not the young people that degenerate: they are not spoilt till those of maturer age are already sunk into corruption.

Charles-Lewis de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755) French political philosopher

Boomers & GenX are going wild, while Millennials & GenZ are sobering up according to two articles 👆🏽 in the same issue of The Economist.

The kids are all right.

I can see some anecdotal evidence of this in #Bangalore as well.

Season 4 episode 10: What Does the Punk in Solarpunk Even Mean? Ariel & Christina Discuss

Why is solarpunk called solarPUNK? What is so punk about it, and does it have anything to do with the original meaning of #punk… or cyberpunk, or steampunk, or any -punk for that matter?

In this episode, Christina and Ariel dive into the thorny question of what exactly it is that they are talking about when they say “solarpunk” … because as it turns out, they both have very different points of reference. Neither Christina’s Gen-Xer ideas of the ‘80s punk-rocker or Ariel’s Millennial idea of the Hot Topic pop-punk fit in with #solarpunk… or do they? Tune in to find out more!

The kids are alright! I was talking to a student today and it stroke me (though it's trivial): my generation's motto on the environment was "Save the whales!" while the new generation's is "There is no planet B!". I think that alone speaks volumes...

Who remembers Paladin & “Have Gun, will travel” #TVShow from long ago? I cringe at the #TagLine now, & my memory is that the hero tried to find other solutions to ppl’s problems. Anyway, I used it as a meme today (Have /particular app/, will travel.) then realized my recipient probably had no idea what I was referencing. #GettingOlder #OutOfDate #GenerationGap I do much better in my #keynote #talks. Much more #onTrend #upToDate #edgey #Agile , I promise. See you at #Øredev conference in Malmö.
