They're not the actual bmf

Oh yeah I know. Honestly I think the image some people try to present of gen z as an entirely revolutionary generation because some people shitpost about guillotines is kinda embarrassing

I am an early 00s baby so I can give you some insight on a couple of those things. First, I like ASMR, but it has to be really specific. There are only a few creators I watch and I only watch specifically sci-fi or medical roleplay. I have no idea why these are the only videos that work for me, but they are. But when they work, they feel great. I get a really relaxing tingly feeling in my head, like when you're a kid and your parent is scratching your head. It's definitely weird but it works for me. I can't explain it.

I use Instagram loads, but only really to look at memes and talk with my friends. I don't post much, and most of my friends don't post much either. My feed is 95% shitposts and 5% cooking videos.

Anime is so popular and moves so fast now, and has so much support, in comparison to the 90s when a lot of it would never get an English dub or sub. There's always gonna be a few popular battle shonen - it used to be Bleach and Naruto, then Attack on Titan, now it's Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia. But there's also so many seasonal anime that asking someone "do you watch anime" actually doesn't tell you much about their tastes.

I always take my photos and videos in portrait because I guess that's the best way to look at them on a phone. I never turn my phone sideways because it's easier to scroll in portrait.

Also, a lot of people are saying that Gen z are a lot cooler than our predecessor politically. That may be true (idk I wasn't there when you were young), partially because we grew up in a post cold war, post 9/11, post 2008 crash world, but also partially because of the movements which came before us. I would say most young people are very good on LGBT issues specifically, and I think that's in large part thanks to the especially vocal movements of older queer people who came to the forefront as we were growing up. We were more exposed to gay and trans people in a positive light, thanks to a lot of millennials.

I don't watch streamers personally but I can see the appeal of having some background noise

Everyone upholds capitalism by living in it, communism isn't a poverty cult.

250 people is an absurd amount for one person to cook for. The kitchen I work in probably feeds about 250-300 people in a day, and there are two chefs and at least two kitchen porters on during the day, sometimes more, and a dishwasher, and that's, like, only manageable, it's not super comfortable.

this page had a blue link for the word "transgender" and it got me so excited for a bulbapedia page on being trans. unfortunately it just goes to wikipedia

Meg of thread

After the Outer Worlds, no. I only remember seeing one trailer a few years ago and it looked like a very generic fantasy setting as well, so I don't know what will make it unique. Maybe it will tide me over until the next Elder Scrolls, but I doubt it'll be anything more than that

My grandad was almost a spy in Vichy France just because he spoke French. He was supposed to meet with the French resistance, but they never showed up so he just went home

Mr Beast might be the antichrist but at the very least he is vocally supportive of his trans best friend. Probably better than Pewdiepie to influence a child, if one of them must have influence at all

Being perceived as unattractive by everyone around me and also myself for my whole life has really done a fucking number on my self-esteem
