Search Results: am i still on her mind

I miss the 2000s so very much, all the way up until about 2008. After that, everything went to absolute shit so bad, such that now I feel I live in a dystopian nightmare.

These were the days before economic turmoil (before 08 of course), the all-consuming big-tech disruption, and before the woke/PC garbage ruined everything. Not everything had to be politically motivated either.

Life was a bit more simpler back then and more laid back. You had cool tech but knew when to take a break and play outside with adventure and friends. Exploring the backyard, the creeks, riding bikes, making trails in the backyard woods... some examples.

This is before everyone lost their ever fucking minds. There was still decorum and manners. No AI face recognition when you walk into Walmart. No leftist mobs burning down businesses, terrorizing their neighbors, and barging into churches to berate congregants. That shit didn't fly back then, and if kids and teens participated in that, their asses would be beat. Adults were actually more like adults, and boy scouts were actually the BOY Scouts for the boys. Kids were actually able to be kids without trying to indoctrinate them with sexually/developmentally inappropriate shit. Drag queens performances in school would have been an outright national outrage.

You could crack jokes back then that are now offensive to hypersensitive snowflakes.

Most of all, I miss my family being together and when family actually meant something. Now, this whole "boundaries" movement and family members blocking one another even just something ridiculous as a political disagreement... it is all disheartening to say the least.

And of course, the culture I miss:

In my opinion, it was a bad finale. They defeated the huge Vecna and the Mind Flayer in a ridiculous way in like five minutes, and nobody even died. What kind of plot armor is this?
Also, what were the Demogorgons doing? drinking tea while all this was happening? If they had sent just two or three of them, they could’ve slaughtered everyone.
Demogorgons aren’t even affected by bullets, yet somehow the Mind Flayer is? The main villain who towered over everyone for five seasons somehow can’t even overpower a fat boy.
The logical inconsistencies go on and on, but still, it wasn’t a completely terrible finale. I’d give it a 6/10.
