(And Why We Should Let Them Dance, Dammit)
A Compassionate Psychedelic Public Health Announcement from Winds of Uranus
They are coming.
Clad in linen shirts and orthopedic sandals.
Waving air guitars and CBD balms.
Eager, tearful, fragile — and ready to boogie.
Friends, be gentle. The Boomers need the Second Sixties more than anyone. Here’s why.
The Dopamine Deficit Generation
This is not a drill.
Decades of saving, scrimping, grinding, hoarding — not just wealth, but Tupperware lids, golf towels, and emotional trauma — have left the Boomer nervous system in a dire state.
While they spent their prime decades building a pyramid scheme of mortgages and mutual funds, the real cost was biochemical: a generation-wide depletion of dopamine and serotonin.
Symptoms include:
✅ hoarding 17 versions of the same baking tray
✅ experiencing panic if a grandchild borrows their second car
✅ mistaking “selling on Facebook Marketplace” for a hobby
✅ confusing “I’m proud of you” with “Did you put that money in superannuation?”
The result? An entire cohort trapped in a loop of scarcity anxiety, despite technically owning everything.
The Second Sixties as Planetary Medicine
Enter: the Second Sixties.
Woodstock 2.0.
Sacred raves.
Collective quitting of meaningless jobs.
A river of safe, ceremonial psychedelics and heart-coherence circles.
This is not a luxury for Boomers — it is public health infrastructure.
Properly facilitated, the Second Sixties offers Boomers:
🌈 a safe container to release their hoarded grief
🌈 controlled dopamine rebalancing through music, dance, and ecstatic community
🌈 pathways to let go of possessions without shame
🌈 new identities beyond landlord, shareholder, or “the one who knows best”
Why We Must Welcome Them
Without this compassionate invitation, here’s what we risk:
🛑 dopamine-depleted Boomers doubling down on control
🛑 new hoarding frontiers (NFTs, VR land, entire bunkers)
🛑 intergenerational resentment hardening into cultural war
But with the Second Sixties?
✅ grandparents on MDMA gently handing their grandkids the deed to the house
✅ family living rooms transformed into home-brewed dance temples
✅ Boomers dissolving ego and saying, at last, “I’m sorry — I was afraid.”
The Checklist: How to Support Boomer Re-Entry
✅ forgive them for the pyramid schemes — it was all they knew
✅ offer them safe, guided psychedelic experiences
✅ teach them that “minimalism” isn’t just for Millennials
✅ curate Spotify playlists with real bass
✅ when they cry mid-dance — hug them
✅ when they give away their second SUV — cheer
✅ when they say, “I never knew it could be this beautiful” — tell them it always was
Final Word: Love Over Legacy
The Boomers came into this world at the first dawn of the psychedelic age.
They watched it be crushed by fear, hierarchy, and markets.
They’ve been waiting, in their own way, for this moment.
The Second Sixties is their portal back to joy — and ours to intergenerational healing.
So let them dance. Let them cry. Let them give away the Tupperware.
We’re all going together this time.
See you in the field.
