@BuzzPatterson We can’t stand her.

There's a 911 in Upstate New York!! Ain't that right @GovKathyHochul ?? Kathy, why do you hate Upstate farmers so much? Let's see what America has to say about this, shall we? If you stand with American Farmers, hit REPOST. Volume UP!👇

There’s a generation a lot of people forget exists. We were born at the tail end of the Boomers, but we are not culturally the same as people born in the 40s and early 50s. We are Generation Jones.

And honestly, it explains a lot.

We grew up in a world that still felt fundamentally analog, but we were young enough to be dragged headfirst into the digital revolution. We are the bridge generation between rotary phones and smartphones, between slide rules and AI, between Walter Cronkite and algorithm driven media.

We remember when there were only a few television channels and the entire country watched the same thing at the same time. We also adapted to the internet, email, forums, social media, streaming and now artificial intelligence. We lived before and after the technological singularity hit everyday life.

That is not a small thing.

People born in the 40s came of age in a post World War II America that was still industrial, deeply hierarchical and institutionally stable. Their formative years were shaped by the Cold War, Vietnam, the civil rights era and a society where information moved slowly.

Generation Jones came later. We inherited the aftermath of all of that.

We were the kids who watched Watergate destroy blind trust in government. We watched manufacturing begin to collapse. We saw divorce rates explode. We were the first truly latchkey generation in massive numbers. We learned independence early because many of us had to.

We grew up with one foot in old America and one foot in whatever this new thing was becoming.

We played outside until the streetlights came on but we also learned DOS commands. We learned cursive and keyboarding. We had card catalogs and Google searches. We went from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to MP3s to streaming in one lifetime.

We remember maps. We remember memorizing phone numbers. We remember life before GPS and before every human interaction became filtered through a screen.

And because of that, I think Generation Jones developed a very unique perspective. We are adaptable because we had no choice but to adapt. We learned technology as adults instead of being born into it. We remember a slower world but were forced to survive in a rapidly accelerating one.

That creates a very different mindset than either older Boomers or younger Gen X and Millennials.

A lot of us also reject the caricature people now associate with “Boomers.” We were not buying houses for the cost of a sandwich in 1965. The interest rate on my first house was over 14% and that was after buying down a point. Many of us got hit by recessions, outsourcing, pension collapses and economic instability just like younger generations did. We watched promises evaporate in real time.

We understand older generations because we were raised by them. We understand younger generations because we had to evolve alongside them.

That’s why the Jones generation often feels culturally homeless. We are rarely discussed, rarely defined and usually lumped into categories that don’t actually fit us.

But we exist.

We are the human transition point between the industrial age and the digital age.

And frankly, there will probably never be another generation quite like us again.

@NassauExec I want you to win, but I think you need to do better with publicity. Hire the agency that is doing Spencer Pratt’s campaign (for mayor of LA) for example.

King Charles & Camilla’s White House Visit - and Harry Trying to Get Noticed

From arrival to the state dinner – every moment of the visit is here.

Look closely though–Prince Harry is always in the background, trying to get Charles’ attention… and getting ignored.

By the end, he’s still there – just not trying anymore.

@nancytsidley @JustBro22308700 Does haznobrains even know what he said? They could have dumbed down the speech to make it more believable H wrote it.

@naomirwolf Must be done by the same artist that did Scary Lucy (a first version of a Lucille Ball statue in Jamestown NY).

My husband had prostate cancer and had it removed. Brutal surgery in one of the top cancer centers. They told him to take Tylenol. I should have pushed back. We were caught off guard and didn’t know how bad it was going to be. Never again! I now agree with Claudia- get the script beforehand.

@amyalkon You should get a politician involved. Perhaps a state senator. Your mayor is useless.

Scott Adams had the President (staff) help with his battle with Kaiser. I believe it worked (but didn’t save poor Scott).

🚨SHOCKING CONFESSION: Former Cleveland Clinic Medical Director Dr. Daniel Neides breaks down in tears, apologizing to ALL his vaccinated patients.

"I didn’t provide informed consent…ABSOLUTELY DEPLORABLE on my part and I apologize to my patients."

@MeghansMole WTF!

[Jeanne @jb14227]

@amyalkon I assume you have an attorney. The attorney can go in front of a judge and get a court order. This happened in my city during the pandemic in order for a man to get his mom ivermectin in the hospital. He won.

@JayCostaUSA Worked real well for Nancy Gunthrie. Her community had limits on outdoor lighting because of a college observatory near by. That person was able to roam free in the middle of the night.

@abbydphillip Don’t worry nobody expects anything from you or your coworkers. If you got something right that would be a surprise.
