As an elder millenial, the last generation that experienced no internet, I will speak on behalf of the rest of us, you have our support.

That's a thing I do too! I offer my hand as a petting post. The interaction is usually the cat petting me at first
I was never diagnosed but when Asperger's was a thing most people thought I belonged in that bucket....
Some people get annoyed at how quickly cats like/trust me. But I don't give them eye contact and frankly look at them a little disinterested.

Canada has a very serious oligarch problem.
New Brunswick is literally owned by one family. (There's circumstantial evidence that they're poisoning a portion of the population in New Brunswick)
Our largest national grocer is owned by one family. (They've raised prices causing inflation that's hurting the entire country)
One of our largest telecom companies? Yep. One family. (Canada has some of the most expensive telecommunications in the world)
Our mining companies commit atrocities all over the world.
Our government fights tooth and nail to ensure there's no real opposition. We've only ever had two parties elected and they do the same things, but talk differently. (If you're American, that probably sounds familiar)
Canada's competition laws are a joke. All Rogers/Shaw had to do was to prove that the merger would be profitable for themselves.
That's it. For the merger to be approved, they had to prove it would be profitable.
Canada's monopoly laws actively encourage monopolies.
The country is a joke
Geordie had an incredible counsellor on board the ship, my head canon is that after many many sessions, Deanna said enough is enough and got a restraining order.
Geordie was a brilliant engineer even by Starfleet standards, so he kept his job
I have a family member who did security on that film. He met Robin, and developed a very short friendship with him. (apparently they had coffee together on set a few times, which means that Robin would have had to go out of his way, as either he went on break with security or hung out while family was on duty)

4 month old post, but I'll weigh in.
I'm an elder millennial. My gf is a baby x'r.
There was so much change between the generations, that with a 5 year age gap, we sometimes feel the culture change.
Anyways, the younger than millennial generation seems to be deathly afraid of making mistakes. I've tried to hire younger people and they are a hindrance because rather than making a mistake and learning how to fix it, they'll spend hours trying to avoid the mistake in the first place. I can't even blame them. I didn't grow up where the majority of my social interactions are permanent. Where a bad take can be used to cancel a person 10+ years later. Where typical edgy teenage jokes aren't a sign of immaturity, but a reason to fire someone. Where an overprotective parental culture stopped them from experiencing pain or failure. Where to have a hobby, you have to be amazing at it. Rather than just enjoying it.
We were the first generation that experienced advertisement that was omnipresent and almost inescapable. The newer breeds don't even have an option for escape
