SERIOUS QUESTION: Do you ever just get this feeling that it's all wrong ?? Cement and traffic and malls and smart phones and high heels and fluorescent lights and food in plastic and living stacked on top of each other and debt and guns and kinda just anything that's not a stream and a field and trees and fresh produce and quiet and slow and real community ?? Does it ever just hit you deep in your gut that we've messed it all up and it's wrong ??

It's annoying that Google knows my home address, Wi-Fi password, browsing history, all my contacts, and even my location history, yet it has spent the last 25 years asking if I’m a robot. You are the robot.

I genuinely think a lot of millennials are reaching the same conclusion at the same time.

We grew up watching technology make life better every year. Cell phones. iPods. Smartphones. An app for everything. It felt like the future was arriving right in front of us, and we couldn’t wait for what came next.

Then somewhere along the way, it changed.

Everything became a subscription. Social media became algorithms. Every day feels like another once-in-a-lifetime event. The things that were supposed to save us time somehow ended up demanding more of our attention than ever.

We were sold convenience.

What we got was a world that feels faster, louder, more expensive, and somehow less human.

And that’s why so many people I know dream about a completely different life now. Not more technology. Not more optimization.

Just a quiet job, a flip phone, a small town, and a place where life feels real again.

Boomers five years ago: “I DO NOT CONSENT TO MY IMAGE OR POSTS BEING USED BY MARK ZUCKERBERG FOR META, FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, OR WHATSAPP TO SELL MY DATA. Like and share if you agree!”

Boomers today, for some reason: “hey I just uploaded all your baby pictures to ChatGPT and you and all your cousins look like penguins isn’t this cute I’m uploading all the grandkids next”

My Hero Academia is the Anime of the Year and a Guiness World Record holder 🏆

My Hero Academia quietly had one of the biggest years any anime franchise has had recently.

Not only did the series win Anime of the Year for its final season at the Anime Awards, but it also earned a Guinness World Record as the most in-demand anime TV show globally.

According to the report, MHA reached a global demand rating 57.5 times higher than the average TV series during the evaluation period from January 10, 2025 to January 9, 2026.

After nearly a decade of Deku, Bakugo, Todoroki, and Class 1-A dominating anime discussions worldwide, the franchise is ending its run at the absolute peak of its popularity.

Whether you love the series or not…
My Hero Academia’s impact on modern anime is impossible to ignore.
