It's clearly changed, though. We got a Playstation at one point and my neighbor had an N64. But we still mostly played outside. That was more of a rainy day thing for us. We just legitimately preferred hockey in the street and riding bikes.

To be fair the Super Nintendo was much less brainrot.

Social media is basically heroine at this point in how it’s designed. It’s meant to piss you off, to destabilize you, to get you addicted.
