I do like how more health-conscious everywhere is. I live in some fuckass town in Ohio and I assure you, healthy eating is hardly cosmopolitan.

The carnivore diet seems to have peaked around 2024-2025. Not gone entirely but here’s to hopium that it peaked.

TikTok peaked too, I believe. I rejoined and re-deleted about a week ago because it had nothing to offer but ragebait and brainrot

Why not watch a Sitcom^TM^? We have:

  • wacky misadventures of boring suburban elites. This is our Landed Gentry class everyone!

  • Bumbling dad who does nothing to help his family but is the designated “leader” anyway.

  • Random neighbor Bumbling Dad Protagonist beefs over who’s the coolest

  • Patronizing sushi episode where the family is scared shitless and finds out brown people aren’t THAT bad after all…but it’s not their fault you browns are just so aberrant to The Normals^TM^

  • Bigotry being treated as cute and relatable even if it’s being criticized.

  • Here have a reminder that what was once seen as “normal” is now rich people problems

  • Very Special Episode where a gay character is introduced. Quick! Recycle the sushi episode’s lesson!

maybe it's because i'm better at curating what news reaches me now, but i haven't heard of a 'blockchain' in a while. Apologies to anyone who was also trying to forget that word, and rest in piss """web3"""

[–] ComradeRat@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

I miss the blockchain and crypto, it was much funnier and less useful for reactionary propaganda than AI

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

99% of crypto bros have moved on to being AI bros

I haven't heard anything about NFTs lately either wholesome

drinking, especially socially/ "happy hour" etc.

10-15 years ago at my last employer it was an expectation because of all the olds and their genx collaborators normalizing alcoholism and self medicating for social anxiety.

as more and more millenials entered the scene and simply stopped attending these events or shifted venues... i dunno, it's just better all around. less creepy bullshit and no duis.

People basing their entire identity/personality around hating the prime minister of Canada.

They absolutely tried to make "fuck carney" a thing. I saw flags for a little while but i don't think it hits a hard as "fuck Trudeau" where the u in fuck is a little maple leaf. Tons of people still have those ones on there but i haven't seen a single one about carney in a while

[–] ComradeRat@hexbear.net 2 points 1 day ago

The conservatives are happy with him from what ive seen (since carney is self admittedly more consercative than doug ford)

My understanding is that til tok was forceably taken over by Zionists with the intention to deprecate it because of how successfully it was being used to agitate against Israel.

Less conspiratorially, It might just be that your new account algo isnt trained the same as your old one. That happened to me on other socials when I left and tried to go back.

Everything I can think of, I am not sure if it is real improvement or not. Like I was thinking of how there aren't these news stories about black or other people being murdered by cops all the time. But is it an actual improvement or just a change in what information reaches me?
