In fairness, 6 years ago plenty of Gen Z were not of voting age yet. The oldest portion of that generation is 26 this year. Also, back then there was a level of apathy to politics that really allowed plenty of shenanigans. Until COVID, that was the general consensus that politics were for their parents or for their grandparents. The last 6 years have shown otherwise, and recent voting turn outs in red states show a swing of younger activism.

I do think dragging millennials into this conversation does weaken that argument though as that generation has been majority voting age for over a decade. They've been shown to have an intense outrage culture but the lack of commitment to do anything about it, which thankfully the activism and general "fuck the establishment" attitude the tide pod kids have might actually make a difference this time around.

Also, Bernie dropped off the ballet before anyone could vote for him when the Democratic party didn't consider him their primary pick. I like the guy and did write him in myself (and most likely he would've won had he remained on the ballet), but the removal of him as a "default" candidate in our system is why so few voted for him, thinking their votes would either ultimately not make a difference, or that they would allow the opposition (whichever side) to win by not voting within the lines.

My man lol. I have 2000 hours in MH:Frontiers on the PSP back in the day. Only at about 300 between Rise and World though!

Not the op, but I really like Imaginary Authors scent lines. Specifically A City On Fire which smells like you were sitting next to a campfire for hours on end before you arrived wherever you are. Cape Heartache is also a really unique scent with strawberry and fir, so like a masculine sweet scent. And for something a lot less challenging, Fox in the Flower Field is also amazing. It leans more like a Chanel N°5 but cuts it with an ozone note that takes away the aldehydic note and replaced it with a darker undertone. I'd love to hear some other good scent houses people have used though too as I'm always looking for something new/exciting/different.

Nah man no judgement. I'm just glad the games took off and I get to share my favorite series with others! Before Tri I had never met anyone else who knew of the series, and after World there's plenty of people who know and are excited about the series!
