30 Blogs in 30 Days, 3. Cusp

What ever happened to Generation Y?

As someone born in 1981, I sit forsaken on the cusp between Generation X and the millennials. Some say I'm one (The New York Times, for example, draws the millennial line in 1982), some say I'm the other (Time, for example, calls it at 1980), and I've seen numbers as disparate as 1976 and 1985. Either way, I'm not a good representative of either generation, being on the edge.

I feel so worthless. (Self-deprecation: Gen X)

30 Blogs in 30 Days, 2. Disaster

Hi. In light of current events, today I'd like to talk about online reactions to disaster and how social media has changed our cultural methods of processing terrible, saddening news. This is not to make trivia of tragedy, but to study it, and ourselves.

As I am a professional nerd, people have asked me why I love social media so darn much.

30 Blogs in 30 Days, 1. Intro

I have decided to write 30 blog posts in 30 days. Starting today. 

One blog. Every day. With a selfie. Thirty days. 

There will be glorious typos and terrible grammar. There will be melodrama. There will be bad hair days. There will be no theme. This will be fun.

Just a quick #humblebrag update:

Last month I put on a BCBG Max Azria dress and went to the Ivey Awards, Minneapolis' local theater award show, and Vita.MN stopped me and took my picture. Check it out: "Drama Club" - Vita.MN



Related nonsense: I put my cat Margot in a t-shirt that says "Dragon Bait" on it today. #catsinclothes She seemed surprisingly down with it. She was purring when this photo was taken.
