Oh man, you just reminded me of when I was the only staff member left on my high school newspaper- all the seniors graduated so I had to write the entire issue by myself for the last month of the year. I’d do dumb shit like this all the time XD

This is exactly what I do! And I’ve also noticed how much more time I’ve spent doing other things as opposed to doomscrolling.

My longtime girlfriend left me the first week of 2016. It led to a lot of personal growth that would’ve never happened otherwise but I cannot downplay just how shocking it was for our mutual friend group. Memories of back then seem unrecognizable now.

David Bowie died the second week of 2016 and things kept going downhill from there.

So I’m a huge fan of The Smiths…

As a former addict, it’s deceptively catchy and upbeat nature really encapsulates how it’d feel to be that high on my week-long benders. The fact that it hit #1 too- literally at the top.

Exactly- though I did trade up my OG PS2 for a slim back in the day. The OG had served its time (~5 years) and was ready to go.

Saw that but these won’t work on the new model so I doubt they make more. Unless of course they’re for the revision but I don’t know how that’d work with the new design.

I’m flashing back to Xbox 360 faceplates.

As a die-hard, I bought it Day 1 and got my $70 worth. But after I 100%'d it and looked at my recently played, I realized the only other game was Chicory which I played around Christmas time…

You’re not wrong. In a year where there are entirely too many great releases on all consoles, I’ve only played two on my PS5 (Street Fighter 6 & Final Fantasy XVI)

Not much reason to replace my current one, but many reasons to pick up OG console covers now if they’re going to be phased out in November.

Sometimes the best memes are made by those who are furthest away from the subject matter. I’m over here with the 9¢ green tea bags from Wegman’s though.

5 years? Honestly, I give old reddit maybe 1 year left.

I usually sample a few bits of a gameplay vid for 5 minutes or so to see if it looks like something I’d enjoy.

Keeping Funimation? Aren’t they migrating us all over to Crunchyroll?

I broke the cycle when I quit Reddit but Lemmy is starting to keep me up until midnight again.

Exactly! It’s so much more engaging to learn all of these things organically as you catch up with someone. I still have Insta but am using it less and instead, sharing photos with my friends directly.

Dislike it if ya dislike it!
