14 Chilling Movies To Chill Out With For Your Spooky Season

I don’t know about you, but I like to fill my fall season with all the scary, spooky, supernatural and fun-scary I can get my eyeballs on. Sometimes I want to tremble on the edge of my seat, heart thumping and arm hairs standing on end. But I’m not always in the mood for a nightmare-inducing spine-tingler. Other times, I want to curl up under a cozy blanket with a bucket of caramel corn and just chill. And still get my spooky fix. Halloween season can be all about fun… Read More »14 Chilling Movies To Chill Out With For Your Spooky Season

U.S. Vice Presidents by Generation

Were you wondering, like me, if we’ve ever had a Generation X Vice President? Here, you will find a list of every V.P. we’ve had and what generation they were born into. I used Strauss-Howe Generational Theory to determine the ranges of early generations, and I use Pew Research date ranges for living generations. Feel free to leave comments or questions below.

Generations and Microgenerations: Their Changing Values and Focus

As I read and write about different generations and the microgenerations that span across them, there is something I have come to notice: Their values and focus shift as a group. When I made a chart about generational stereotypes, which you can check out here and here, I saw that each generation possessed a different ‘orientation’. Baby Boomers are community-oriented. Millennials are relationship-oriented. And Zillennials are culture-oriented. I started to wonder how one generation morphs into the next, taking a slowly passing generational life focus, adding current events, trends, and… Read More »Generations and Microgenerations: Their Changing Values and Focus

Micro-Generations Stereotypes Chart

Micro-Gens, You Say? Oftentimes, those of us born on the cusp of a generational range don’t align well with the stereotypes of that generation. For example, a Gen Xer born in 1979 might find they have some traits in common with Gen X, but also display many traits associated with Millennials. This realization has led to the acknowledgement of micro-generations that span the tails of the generational bell curves. These groups, then, have their own traits more in common with each other than with the macro-generations that come before or… Read More »Micro-Generations Stereotypes Chart

U.S. Governors (2026) by Generation

So, what do you think? In the year 2026, do we have more Baby Boomer Governors in the U.S., or more Generation X Governors? The answer might surprise you! Here is a list of all the Governors, as of early 2026, and the generation to which they belong.

All your questions can be answered here! Does it matter? Truthfully, I’m not sure.

US Capitol building

119th U.S. Congress – Senate – Generational Makeup

Do the Baby Boomers still dominate the U.S. Senate, or Generation X? Have you ever wondered what the generational makeup of the Senate is?

Right off the bat, before I forget, this post will contain spoilers. It is intended for people who have seen the film franchise and are interested in a generationally specific analysis.

Forgive me, but I have something of a love affair with this franchise, and I just never run out of things to say about it.
