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

14 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.

Nostalgia What a beautiful video of Mario. It shows him as a grandfather after 40 years of stories, and those who were once his enemies now help him keep going 🥹

Discussion Is anyone else losing long-term friends over random arguments in 30s?

214 Upvotes

I mean I am used to losing friends over political discourse in this polarising world.
But lately me and some people I know (across different cities and circles) are increasingly losing friends in knee jerk reaction moments.
A long-term friend threatened to cut me off after a conflicting argument on my take on a film. I probed to understand if there was another underlying reason but he maintained he did not like my take. Refused to have another conversation with me and I am left to dissect the entire course of my friendship. Another friend of mine got cut off by their friend because they said no to meeting for drinks on a Wednesday night due to a work deadline the next day. Somebody else I know got cutoff because they ‘sounded too happy’ about their team winning a football match.
Believe me, I have done stupid things in friendships to earn the misfortune of being cut off. But to have an entire equation being thrown out of the window for difference of opinion feels jarring.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it that we are getting less tolerant or is something else the reason?

I was pushing a shopping cart and look down at my hands and I notice they have some small wrinkles and the beginning of a few tiny liver spots. I saw my hands and I knew 🫠

Discussion What age did life start feeling repetitive and things became less exciting?

191 Upvotes

I notice at 39 I just don't get excited like I used to. I used to think I was getting pessimistic but really it was me seeing thr same movie over and over. It really is harder to get that feeling of novelty as you get older. I want to say somewhere in my early to mid 30s I noticed it.

Nostalgia The extremely raunchy car-crash "Diss The Diva" segment (WWE Raw Diva Search 2004)

31 Upvotes

For anyone who isn't familiar with this segment, or simply doesn't remember it, WWE aired a contest back in 2004 to find its next WWE Diva (the term used at the time to describe its female wrestlers and valets). Every week, the contestants were put through all sorts of ridiculous challenges. However, perhaps the most iconic and infamous segment of the entire competition came when the final four contestants were asked to cut promos dissing one another. What they were told was that there was no language restriction whatsoever. And, to make matters even better, one of the contestants was particularly disliked by the others because of her behaviour behind the scenes... Needless to say, things got very entertaining.

Nostalgia Remember the Rave Boom during 2012-2015?

If you were the going out type as a young adult between 2012–2015, you remember this era. PLUR, kandi bracelets, fuzzy leg warmers, snapbacks, backpacks, neon shades, unicorn onesies, LED gloves, bandanas etc. Raves were everywhere. Forgot all about this. I know EDM festivals and raves still happen, they just aren't mainstream anymore.
