  • -Discovering extraterrestrial life

    -Phasing out of disposable plastics and gasoline vehicles

    -Transferring to clean energy and clean industrial processes whenever applicable

    -More widespread ethical and sustainable farming practices

    -Lab grown organs and/or more efficient artificial body parts

    -Improved healthcare system/healthcare research

    -Better treatments and potentially cures for chronic and/or rare diseases

    -Much longer lifespans I just think we don’t live long enough even with the current best case scenerios lol

    Though some of this would be viable now, if it weren’t for capitalism/politics holding it back so might not entirely count

    I didnt start really using social media until I was 15 (2015) (not including when I briefly used FB when I was 13 and having an account on the official Warrior Cats message boards when I was ~12), but even then it seems like people were a lot more chatty? I feel like I got more positive comments on my shitty art from that time than I sometimes do nowadays.

    And also the fact that so many people nowadays share their full name how they look irl. I’d much rather keep that shit private unless it’s someone I trust and seems especially dangerous nowadays, and now there’s a worrying amount of minors doing it.


  • I would never play it myself so I’m not sure how much this counts, but there’s something about Garten of Banban that keeps drawing me back to it whenever a new episode drops. I’m well aware it’s just some shitty bottom of the barrel reaction streamer/theory crafting bait and it’s mostly me wanting to see where the train wreck goes, but I think I’m enjoying it on an ironic level too.





  • As someone who’s into a lot of VR stuff, the biggest problem is that it’s still a niche market that requires the consumer to be spending a lot on extra hardware in order to play it. Obviously the majority of studios would rather invest in something more people can play and therefore buy, and at most will maybe add a VR mode to their first person game. I’ve found VR modes and mods for games not initially developed for that sort of hardware to be more engaging and have more substance than most of the ones specifically made for it (and is most of the VR games I play), but being able to play in VR does enhance the experience imo depending on the game.
