Do what I do: have someone else spend their day surfing the web and then have them tell you about it.

I subscribe the the "Garbage Day" substack by author Ryan Broadrick.

Through this I recently discovered what many consider the first major Gen-Alpha meme: Skibidi toilet

He also had an event in NYC recently and I went in terrified that i'd be the only millennial in the room (vs Gen Z) but it turns out the majority of the people there were millennial which was a surprise. Thinking back on it,I guess millennials were unique in that they saw the "old internet" before capital took over and they remember a time when computers weren't just walled gardens serving up what others want you to see. As a result, events that talk about the internet, what it was like and where its going appeals to that generation I guess?




That almost feels like the reaction channels or the tv shows that are summaries of some people watching other shows.


Garbage Day is great, BTW
