    It makes perfect sense. Would you call a baby born today a “2020s kid”? They’re a baby, they won’t remember shit. They’ll be a kid (and adolescent) in the 30s. That’s when formative experiences will occur

      I just want to say, this is the first time I’ve seen/heard the 2030s referred to as simply “the 30s” in a casual sentence. It still feels weird. But eh, that’s life. I still remember “2002” feeling like a far-off future.
