  1. Ich habe heute zum ersten Mal gehört, dass meine Frau und ich zu den #Xennials gehören, der Brückengeneration zwischen #GenerationX und den #Millenials.

    Und tatsächlich trifft die Beschreibung ziemlich gut auf uns zu - während ich bei Generation X eher so "meh" dachte und meine Frau als Millenial auch nicht wirklich in das Schema passt.

  2. ‘Xennials: The Last Analog Generation’ is a fascinating podcast, using the 1990s as a lens on our world today - from Globalisation to online culture.

    I joined host Charlotte Kan for the new episode - to talk Ecstasy, irony, subcultures, Beck, the Berlin Wall, & generational schisms.

  3. Our fixation on generational labels as a society really astounds me. Are all these generational labels actually useful to understanding our culture and cultural differences? Sociologists don’t seem to think so as far as I can tell.

    And I think it likely invites stereotyping, which is never a good thing.

    (Also, after a quick Google search I just discovered that I am called an “Xennial”. Couldn’t resist… 😅)
