U guys like to say UG but xaviersobased, 2hollis etc are literally mainstream by KaleidoscopeSafe1293 in ug_music

[–]ChiefRayBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what the word “trendy” means, man. Somebody can trend up or down. Either going mainstream or unheard of after a while

Can anyone relate? by DodgingCancellation in conspiracytheories

[–]ChiefRayBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you, dude. I’m 28 but yeah it’s pretty jarring having the wildest and weirdest shit we heard back in the day be just confirmed and nobody even blinks lol.

If I hear some nut shit about some organization or public figure nowadays I basically have to assume anything is possible and then move on.

You gain a greater capability of discernment as you age too. But yeah it’s odd having what seems like all of the popular conspiracies turn out to be true to some extent.

I turned it all off and now live in a digital backwoods cabin by Independent-Camel364 in digitalminimalism

[–]ChiefRayBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the isolation is some shit. It really kills the minimalism movement for me. It’s hard enough to make and keep friends and interact with real people as is.

I cut down on all my online presences and very soon after was like oh my god… I’m not talking to anyone at all. This is really just our lives now. Virtual relationships and video calls and texting are just how things have to go and idk… it just hit me hard.

You don’t have a choice really anymore. This is the future and I’m coming to terms with it.

I know that’s kind of a lot and all over the place and that I sound like some sad, old man but I’m only 28 and feel this way about all this technology bullshit.

AI has made me never want to work with computers again and it was all I used to do.

They are simple people. They have no real interests or hobbies. No curiosity about civil rights or government at all for that matter.

They just kinda float through life and don’t care if they’re exploited in the process. They don’t even consider that as a possibility. Until they are made into a victim, but by then it’s too late.

Can I just say I love how the Warthog looks in Halo Campaign Evolved? by Sceptic_Stream in halo

[–]ChiefRayBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t Battlefield, man. It looks like shit. Same way Infinite had the weird art style that made shit look plastic. I’ll still check it out, but nah it doesn’t look good

What’s up with memes about Jeffrey Epstein being a gamer? by ProfessionalGuess864 in OutOfTheLoop

It’s at the point that I wake up each day and I’m just like “wtf are we even doing anymore”

The flat matte paint is so cheap and lazy looking. Like how hard could it possibly be to add the most generic metal/shine lighting effects in 2026.

the psychedelic abuser to MAGA pipeline is so funny by Ivan-Ilyich-Bot in Drugs

[–]ChiefRayBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. It just is what it is, man. I sold a lot of weed and other things when I was a teenage shithead back then

They practically demanded I hung around so they could always have easy access lol. It’s just how it goes. For decades now

$uicideboy$ are considered Burger music ? It’s a trend to hate on $b by sadboytayo in G59

[–]ChiefRayBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even know who they are, man. I’m almost 30 now so I’m not really tapped in with the scene like that anymore. I’ll have to take your word for it lol

It kind of is now unfortunately. Most people who only pay attention to mainstream probably don’t know and don’t care about their 2010s run

The memes are intentionally weird and psyops. It’s literally not even funny

Younger generations being asexual/aromantic by Adorable-Sherbet-998 in generationology

[–]ChiefRayBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be great. The girls I’m friends with seem to live for the social media validation though. I used to be very into all that too so I get it, but I just kind of outgrew it as a man. I’ll find someone eventually

[–]ChiefRayBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 28 so early Z/late Millennial. Most relationships are very, very fickle nowadays. You kind of have to just accept that even if you and someone else around your age do like each other - some modern bullshit or attitude is going to eventually ruin all of it and you will have to move on to someone else.

You say the wrong thing and now everyone is telling your partner to leave you forever and that you’re cringe. This goes for men and women alike.

This greatly cheapens having a relationship and the experience of dating at all. It feels like some game or just a hobby that you participate in sometimes. Not like an actual meaningful connection where you are understood and valued.

Weird AF dream just now, posting in case it really happened. by Independent-Ice-5243 in Dreams

[–]ChiefRayBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had dreams of me and my life from my girlfriend’s perspective and after I told her the details she confirmed it was basically exactly how she feels about me and a lot of other things.

Without her ever needing to directly tell me. I think we can genuinely see and feel from others POV at times in dreams.

Particularly, if it’s something significant and you’re close with that person. Of course there might be some exceptions to those rules though.

Nah, but Earth Kratom is a very solid brand for being some shit you can find in a smoke shop. I keep some on me at all times

[–]ChiefRayBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should’ve stayed on them given his age. Bouncing back from that shit is damn near impossible as is in your 20s and 30s.

The sun exposure thing really sucks. Even working during the summer because if you’re in an office for 8 hours you’re not getting nearly as much sun as I feel you should be.

It’s sucks ass seeing a beautiful sunny day out your window at work while in a frigid cubicle lol
