one way I know the lemmy population is old is how frequently we complain about the youths these days. we’ve become our parents, and their parents before them, moaning about how no one has good taste anymore

I'm either still young or just a contrarian but so far I've successfully managed to avoid becoming this person. I constantly look for new stuff to experience and I still haven't felt like things have peaked. As in, no, I don't think music nowadays sucks, are you insane? There's so much cool stuff being made all the time that my only complaint is that don't have enough time to experience it all.

yea im in the sweet spot too lol, 30 and still regularly discovering new music i like. i hope we both maintain this positivity as we age, i think it’s a much nicer way to wade through life. even if i reach a point where i stop liking new music, i hope i can still see the value in it for others, i never want to be that old grump
