And to be clear this is not a shame post. I've just recently come to terms with a lot of this. Gen Z are really the first generation for which indulgence in anything is so easy and default that you have to actively choose to sacrifice comforts and conveniences to experience real substance in life.

On the low, sheltering is the number 1 problem with modern society in general. Nobody learned from Wall-E and we just keep making everything frictionless, mass-produced and free. Same for games. Why do people like soulslikes so much? They're uncompromising. They won't just *give* you what you want.

my hot take on the "Gen Z isn't having sex" discourse is that it doesn't have anything to actually do with sex they're paralyzingly afraid to do anything that requires vulnerability, to the point that even just seeing it in media makes them put up the walls moral: social media is evil

Worst Thing contender: Misery somehow feeling unearned. My brain makes me sad or anxious all the time, which obviously sucks on its own, but I also don't feel like I should be *letting it*. I feel like a worse person for the positives of my life not feeling like enough for me. I *should* be happy.

Fascinating video touching on interesting psychological biases. Although, to be honest, I think the comment section is providing more insight than the video itself. www.youtube.com/watch?v=618b...

I fled to the internet at a young age because I felt like the real world wasn't made for me. Now everyone is on the internet, and I feel like it's no longer made for me. "Where to next," I suppose, is the question now.

I’m honestly looking forward to the widescale reevaluation of ORAS more than the same for X & Y. I love all those games dearly but ORAS in particular I consider to be some of the best games GAME FREAK has ever made, and the audience response to them being so negative NEVER stops baffling me.

I know this officially makes me a square but I've come to realize that I just hate body modification. Ear piercings and *MINOR* tattoos are as far as I can deal personally. I'm not religious or anything but I do believe we were all made inherently beautiful and I hate seeing that sullied.

I'm sorry but if you intentionally take mind-altering substances you are responsible for any decisions you make while high on them. Annoys me that it seems like society has become SO pro-drug that we infantilize ourselves instead of acknowledging the risks.

I’ve become a regular at a local restaurant. Thought about asking out the cute waitress I always get. Didn’t because I don’t think I deserve love. Today, after 7 months of going here, she mentions her boyfriend for the first time. That worked out?

When new Castlevania releases I am going to purchase it and play it. I am not going to set it on the shelf forever looking visibly unplayed. I am going to play the video game. If I do not play the video game, please shoot me with a crossbow.

I bought a watch, and the moment I put it on my wrist I was flooded with an unbelievable amount of shame. The self-loathing isn’t at the front of my mind anymore, but it still lingers and it runs damn deep.

I've been enjoying that Digimon game but now that Tour is dead I'm really considering quitting it and being done with all those types of mobile games. I'm sick of (what is supposed to be) my favorite hobby constantly pulling at a leash around me.

Rounded things out with some 1st Places in Multiplayer using my boy Gold Dry Bones and absolutely slaughtering everyone in the final Ranked Cup. Rest now, my good video game. 🫡

RIP Tour. For as much as you can say negatively about it, it really was a unique experience that I truly enjoyed while it lasted.

I really don't have any patience for this kinda shit anymore, man. If you group people together by their immutable characteristics and judge them all as bad, you are shit and need to fuck off. It does not matter what group it is. Fuck off.

I'm starting to realize that I just like 4:3 better than 16:9. Maybe it's something about how humans and much of our objects stand upright? I just always feel like I'm seeing more, like I'm closer to really being in what I'm seeing. Probably also helps that I feel strong CRT TV supremacy as is.

Okay it kinda seems like this #movie is flopping based on early numbers so I just want to reiterate in a more “look at this post” way that if you like #film especially #animated films with really good #animation GO SEE FORGOTTEN ISLAND! It is #cinema it is pure human #art and it is a wonderful time.

I still remember the day I opened up Serebii and saw the Gen 4 reveal. I had such an innocent, earnest reaction, like the concept of Pokémon being on the DS was the most mind-boggling and amazing thing I'd ever heard in my life. I printed out Palkia & Dialga so I could show any friend I encountered.

20 years ago today I booted up Gen 4 for the first time and accidentally nicknamed my Piplup "." because I entered the nickname screen without knowing how to read Japanese didn't have the heart to soft reset to fix her name so I just called her Dot

I need to give it another go before January but also I've played like 3 hours max of every Metroid because I always get lost and pissed off and quit. I really do hope to get the appeal someday though, lol. Ravenous looks sick.

YouTube implementing variable video edits like they have for titles and thumbnails is very interesting, but it's disappointing that they're adding it for boosting engagement rather than, oh I don't know, copyright backup versions, or epilepsy-safe versions.

The realization of years wasted by gooning will rock nations. The realization that OnlyFans has a *VERY* powerful inverse relationship with respectability will break hearts. The realization that you can't be loved & married by someone that you and your internet cult actively hate will boggle minds.

I worry about women in particular regarding this. Modern social media has a really bad habit of teaching young women that their actions won't have consequences, and that is just not how real life works.

Wade Silver @wadesilver.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
I think the next 10 years are going to be socially devastating for young people. As the biological clocks of the first "grew up with social media" generations start ticking they'll have to reckon with the fact that they have been actively manipulated and lied to by their peers this entire time.

I’m very very happy to say that Forgotten Island is a banger. It moves at 235mph, but I’m here for it because it works so well. May be the best-looking 3D animated movie of all time. Credits end with “this film may not be used to train AI” :) god I love art. SPEND YOUR MONEY. SEE THE MOVIE.

I know this is probably the shittiest thing I’ve ever said but I really do struggle with seeing people being super happy and having fun together in public. I don’t dislike them or anything, to be clear; it’s purely envy. It just feels so alien, and I wonder if it will ever be my turn.

Insane to still be discussing this in 2026. It’s his art, so he made the decisions on how it should be viewed in official capacities. Imagine the mind breakage that would occur if normal people knew that this happens *all* the time in film. Kubrick used to BURN footage he changed his mind on lol

It's a good question- I kinda just assumed they must have. Maybe that's foolish of me. I've been highly critical of sites like Bulbapedia in the past for how they sometimes (imo) unfairly/wrongly portray characters and story elements, so I'm surprised I've never put more thought into this question.
