Discussion Monthly Rant/Politics Thread: Do not post political threads outside of this Mega thread

11 Upvotes

Outside of these mega-threads, we generally do not allow political posts on the main subreddit because they have often declined into unhinged discussions and mud slinging. We do allow general discussions of politics in this thread so long as you remain civil and don't attack someone just for having a different opinion. The moment we see things start to derail, we will step in.

Got something upsetting or overwhelming that you just need to shout out to the world? Want to have a political debate over current events? You can post those thoughts here. There are many real problems that plague the Millennial generation and we want to allow a space for it here while still keeping the angry and divisive posts quarantined to a more concentrated thread rather than taking up the entire front page.

We all hear about how addicted people are to TikTok nowadays. Well, Reddit is my TikTok.

I catch myself opening this app every 5 minutes like something important happened. Half the time I’m just reading random posts and comments.

Two different yearbooks, both from the same year. First four photos are from a school in Glendale, AZ. Last four photos are from a school in Martinsville, IN. I know this might lean more toward older millennials but still fun.

I'll share the answer later!

Edit: ANSWER IS 1997!

Nostalgia The Brave Little Toaster is such a different movie as an adult

470 Upvotes

When I was little I remember being so upset with Toaster for leaving that flower that was so lonely. "Why did Toaster do that?!" I would think, angrily. As an adult, I see that Toaster was very broken up about it and was just trying to hide and not get overwhelmed by all the animals.

Serious Is anyone else just like… really lonely?

1.4k Upvotes

Is this a thing in your 40s? Between driving kids around and a toxic hybrid job where nobody is really “friends” the way I’ve had in the past, I feel like I have very little social interaction these days. My best friend lives far away, my local friends are constantly overscheduled, and my poor husband can only satisfy so much.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Discussion What movies legitimately freaked you out as a kid?

• Upvotes

For me it was these two. I was 9 when The Sixth Sense came out and 12 when The Ring did. My parents let me watch both and they both messed me up pretty good. Certain moments from the Sixth Sense still make my skin crawl as an adult remembering the childhood trauma lol (the kitchen scene). What’re the movies that got to you as a kid? Happy spooky season everybody!

1.2k Upvotes

I have noticed a huge uptick in the last year or so of "idiots driving with their high beams on," frequently blinding me from front or back.

It's been so often now that I'm starting to question if its just me. Like my eyes are getting worse at night vision because I'm old now.

Yeah?

Discussion How have you felt about being a "later in life" parent?

• Upvotes

As a many millennials, I had my kids in my 30s (33 +35) perhaps slightly on the older side of the new normal. Compareitvely, my parents were very young just 23 for my birth.

It blows my mind, how quickly the norms changed.

I often find myself doing milestone math, when kid is 10 il be 45 etc which I find really hard. I wonder if perhaps being a young parent was really the better choice all along...

How's everyone else doing with being 30 and 40s with young kids. What do you think about the age you became a parent?
