There's similar issues in the UK. Kids used to ride bikes in the park, play football, and everyone knew everyone on the housing estates...and more importantly people looked out for each other.
These days you can still go to the park and young families still do during the day on the weekends but there's much less football, bike riding and people outside generally - particularly as it gets dark. Much more likely to encounter something drug related, get mugged for your phone, stabbed or something else. So you look at that, then you look at Netflix and just cut your losses if you're growing up now I think. Better to be safe than dead. Sad, isn't it?

Now that I think about it, a lot of the social entertainment hubs that used to bring young people together are gone or not popular.
There used to be roller rinks. You could play arcade games, eat rotten hot dogs and fall down. There were arcades. You could wait around the popular games and watch your quarter on the glass to make sure everyone knew who was next. You would go bowling it was cheap and you could make up numbers and drink birch beer. There seemed to be a lot of delis and candy stores where kids would just hang out, buy junk and play video games. Movies were cheap enough for kids to spontaneously go together using spare cash. Lots of comic book stores to hang out at, lots of D&D or game/hobby stores, same thing. I don't know if that's still a thing because I don't have kids/not a pedo but we also used to get a lot of social action at the Y or the Boys Club. There was swimming and bb ball and softball we did a lot of stuff, met a lot of kids that way. I was a Boy Scout I know their membership is down but that was super social too, we went a lot of places and had a lot of fun with that. | ||

Dazed and Confused really spoke to me. When we saw it we were like holy shit this is our life like six-eight years ago. The social scene was exactly that. Just cruising around, planning the next party, the next beer run, who was interested in who, where do we get the concert tickets. And everywhere you went, there were people you knew. It was like there was a hundred, two hundred of you and you just spent your time like a little pinball, bouncing around town, wasting time.
I'm thinking of that because I was thinking of generational coming-of-age movies, you know how they represent a moment in time, like Pretty In Pink could never happen today, and Ferris Bueller, that movie could have only existed in that one precise moment (Remember when we found out Jeffrey Jones was a pedo and Charlie Sheen had HIV? Before that moment.) and I was wondering how a movie like that would look today. How does one come of age today? How would that be represented on the screen? Would we be looking at people upgrading their devices? Getting their own plans? I jest but... | ||

The most stressful day of your life will be when you need to decide if its time to go to the hospital because your oxygen saturation is dropping too fast from covid
if it hasnt happened yet, stay tuned, it will even if you got lucky and got antibodies, they wear off in 4 months if your super lucky you will get the flu with it, or something else Get ready for winter friends, i am getting over the flu finally i been on my ass 8 days and i had to call the EMTs to check me out 3 days ago, if i had covid as well i would not be posting this. | ||

Dear God of Abraham,
I have not been a good believer. As a matter of fact those Commies did such a good job that it took the benevolence of John Paul II and Ronald Reagan (PBUH) to bring me back into the fold, into the warm embrace of the Catholic faith as a good repentant Papist (no homo and also no pedo). You know I have never doubted you since, and you also know that I've never prayed for anything, never asked for a single thing, because I believe that I am too much of a sinner and too insignificant within your gaze to be allowed your direct favor. I would rather wither and turn to dust than to anger you with such arrogance. But... Still. Just one tiny small insignificant request for you but which would mean the world to me: Please tell me WHAT IS JOE BIDEN TRYING TO SAY!!! Please I beg you Lord. Ok just this once. Just this one thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0nCBtswloE (Porky Pig 2020) | ||
