I would watch that sitcom, Jeb Bush and Joan of Arc.

I actually have a comic concept that features Joan of Arc and H.P. Lovecraft traveling around and having adventures. And ol' HP was at least as racist as Jeb Bush.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

No, then we end up killing the good ones who fund useful causes and invent cool poo poo too.

The solution is to kill all the Republicans, everyone stop pussy-footing around with this "what no we just gotta get all the rich old white people" nonsense and say it plain. It's not like it takes the NSA to crack that particular code, just admit it. You'll feel better.

Real talk: the other night I drunkenly theorized the only way his campaign could get sadder was if his mother died on the trail stumping for him. I'm glad they mercy killed the Jeb! Initiative before Barbara.

Right? When I was in high school I was really into politics but I might as well have been slowly hammering my head into a brick wall every day. I actually met one of my partners because I was looking through political posts years ago and they were talking about how hot they found Obama.

Now I'm just like...the more I ignore that stuff the better. Except for the memes. Sadsack Jeb is hilarious.

I followed politics avidly when I was in school, but I think I've been burned out in the intervening six years or so by a combination of having irritatingly right-wing family and always ending up with equally obnoxious left-wing classmates in university. Soured me on the whole thing.

It's more complicated than that, of course, but talking about it upsets me.

Lovecraft's ridiculous racist ranting is one of my favourite gags from Atomic Robo. Just babbling incoherently about how savage and mindless the nuclear powered robot with a New York accent is.

It's anyone who "grew up" post 2000, so it pretty much goes back to the early 80s.

In fact it's generally considered to have ended around 2005 or so, there's only a fraction of millennials born in the new millennium.

The end of Gen X/start of Millenials is still fuzzy, but it's generally considered somewhere around 1980-83. Different groups have it ending anywhere from 1996-ongoing.

It'll be a bit more clear in another decade.

Almost exactly like comics "Ages" (Golden, Silver, etc.), pinning that poo poo down to years isn't actually useful. The real tests are all about culture and influences.

If the Cold War was a huge influence on your childhood, and it was socially unacceptable for someone your age to live with their parents after finishing college—you're Gen-X.

e: Also, if your youthful impression of New York was Scorcese Scary, you're probably Gen-X. If it was Giuliani's cleaner, touristy city, you're almost certainly Millennial.

The acedemic cutoff is 1981. Rhyno just barely escapes. Hence my annoyance at 21 year olds cussing out 17 year olds for being no-good millenials.
