I’ve spent some time thinking and

Calvin was exactly my generation that processed post-70s mass media as natural and reverse-engineered the meaning and wondered why we even bothered having selves at odds with it

Calvin’s Dad was an interesting boomer/X cusp Dad (like 80s Doonesbury with the cigarette advertising plotline) about how it was farcical and self-aware but satisfying for him to step into the patriarch role

Calvin’s Mom you saw a lot of this type in the 80s, not careerist but somehow don’t count as a homemaker, probably had a Volvo or later Subaru, hair and clothes now transparently read as a lesbian, what’s that
