This is a thoughtful roundup, Bryan. The intersections of housing, work, retirement, and health show clearly how society’s structures are still anchored in shorter lifespans. From my experience, the gap between institutional assumptions and lived reality is where most friction emerges. Your focus on usable years and participation resonates strongly. How do you see organizations adapting their policies to account for these extended, complex life stages?
The first section on ageism was my favorite here Bryan. I often write about this myself.
I agree that words alone will not change institutions overnight. But I do think it starts with how we depict and describe aging in our every day lives and how we perceive it.
