There's this girl I knew whose boomer parents never married. He refers to her cheekily as his girlfriend. It's kind of endearing.

They're French Canadian obviously and have been together for over 30 years. It's just an interesting contrast to the 'put a ring on it' culture.

Some observations at the public library

- Zoomers will reliably have a screen on the side playing their favorite show while they write their essays.

- African boomers are almost always pulling up in a suit and tie with a briefcase to apply for jobs online as in the cumtown bit.

- Librarians can be caught off guard when you ask them about books now. One librarian asked me if I knew books could be found online?

- If you do find someone reading from a stack of books nowadays they're almost certainly a schizo or a temporarily embarrassed entrepreneur hitting the business books in search of Knowledge™.

- Every other person has a laptop open and their screen is invariably chatgpt.

- There's no hope getting highschoolers in study groups to be quiet. The librarian as disciplinarian is gone.
