Ahh, Gen X—they’re the “middle child” of generations, aren’t they? Sandwiched right between the larger-than-life Baby Boomers and the tech-savvy, meme-dominating Millennials. Gen X is like that red-headed stepchild sibling who mastered the art of blending into the background while rolling their eyes at everyone else’s drama. Latchkey kids? Yep, you bet. Actually, they invented that. Cynicism? Uh huh, they perfected it. And now, Gen X is watching Boomers discover TikTok while Millennials complain about avocado toast prices. The struggle is hilariously real.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to exist as the world’s most forgotten generation, buckle up. Let’s go back to the future and drive head-first into the quirks, complaints, and straight-up relatable moments that make being Gen X both a laugh riot and a huge ol’ eye roll.
1. Dial-Up Patience vs. Instant Gratification Showdown
Let’s just start with this: Gen X lived through the glory days of dial-up internet. That sound of modem screeching was basically their theme song. Waiting for a webpage to load gave them time to grab a snack, read a magazine, and maybe solve world hunger while they waited. Now, Gen X watches Millennials and Gen Z rage-quit when Netflix takes more than 0.02 seconds to buffer. Patience? Yeah, Gen X invented that too.
Gen X Superpower: The ability to calmly wait for things while every other generation loses their collective minds. Buffering? No problem. They’ll just listen to some mixed tapes. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
