As a kid, I distinctly remember protesting (two separate decades) to stop the middle east invasion. I remember even when it was announced, it was deeply unpopular.

And here we are again.

They're monopoly only because all of their competitors fail to capture the audience. You might as well say Water is monopolizing hydration.

AI, how do I take the executive producer of Xbox Studio Publishing's job?

As a older millennial, I'm watching America continue to be overtaken in so many areas since 2000s.

There's so many countries doing things better and I can't even explain it to people.

Hey we use Avatar to talk about the wrongs mankind has done to the ecosystem.

I think. Maybe? I have no idea what Avatar is really about beyond being Ferngully with tall blue people. And I watched both movies.

For me, it's like how people played with train sets in the 40s.

You're just watching the system go. You fix some things here and there. There's no reward, besides intrinsic dopamine boosts. And little to no failure. Except from outsiders who mock it.

This is actually a great idea.

Cops ticketing random people? Put on your ICE uniform and watch them wave you by.

Huge line of people at a restaurant? Put on your ICE uniform and watch the line separate.

Gotta take a dump? Put on your ICE uniform and shit on the floor.

The hobby one was the one that hit me the most.

I love a specific hobby. I don't like to engage much of the community because my opinions go against the hive kind. I also don't have interest/energy to debate. I also am not that interested in engaging daily. Weekly, sure. Monthly, absolutely. But day after day? I have a life to live.

But Every time I introduce people to it, I have to dial down my excitement. I invest a lot into my hobby and I'm really good at it.

Who controls the Reddit narrative of my hobby? Not people like me.

Pretty sure that is already a Harry Potter character.

I mean sometimes it's better that way. I like watching live comedy, in dingy comedy clubs where there's a strict no phones policy. A lot of the best stories all live in my head.

I met the neighbors who talked about their trip in Europe, and then proceeded to show me a 2 minute video of fireworks in Paris off their phone.

It wasn't even like a good shot or framing, nor could I tell it was Paris. It was just a random hotel room, and in the background, fireworks.

She then put her phone away and said, "Neat, huh?"

I don't know if it was just peak comedy or if I was being Punk'd or something.
