>2. Industrial Revolution workers (1800–1900): Brutal labor, child work, pollution, no safety net.
>3. World War cohorts (1890–1927): Global depression, two world wars, mass death.
>4. Gen Alpha (2013–present): Unknown scale of AI, climate, demographic, and social disruption.
>5. Gen Z (1997–2012): Digital chaos, housing exclusion, social collapse in slow motion.
>6. Millennials (1981–1996): Systemic stagnation, debt servitude, inflation erosion.
>7. Gen X (1965–1980): Institutional decay, but still attainable prosperity.
>8. Boomers (1946–1964): Economic golden age, broad comfort.
>9. Silent Generation (1928–1945): Endured early hardship, but postwar payoff.

I say just get them treated for pain first, then worry about aesthetic. Sometimes you gotta be ugly, but you can be pretty again. It's just mass you occupy. Even just covering your teeth in gold is highly effective and I think it looks cool. Kintsugi. You'll have to pay your penance perhaps, but life can be better after that than if nothing ever happened at all.
