Alcohol. Or drugs for that matter. But alcohol is the one that actually pisses me off when depicted in media. It's always some character downing a glass of something and then having this super happy face and enjoying themselves. Like, fuck off? Anyone I know who drinks doesn't even enjoy the flavor of it, and it being romanticized into this fancy, social drink is genuinely infuriating.

As for drugs, I just don't understand the reason why someone would want to alter their mental capabilities.

Web3. Doesn't make sense. The internet is already supposed to be decentralised.

Finally got to play Nightreign, and that's at the front of my mind as an answer to this question. Love Elden Ring; but after a few expeditions in Nightreign, I'm never touching it again.

Krispy Kreme donuts. Cold Stone Creamery. Cake Pops.

The one thing Krispy Kreme has going for them is if you can get them fresh and warm, they are pretty damn good, and they generally make them fresh all day. But at least in my area, what they did is open a handful of locations where you could get them freshly-made, let those build some hype for a year or two, then close them down and sell the pre-packaged garbage in grocery stores and gas stations.

IMO they are still generally better than whatever other basic glazed donuts you can buy off the store shelf, but if there's a local bakery that sells fresh donuts though, 10/10 they will be better than Krispy Kreme.

I don't care who the government sends, I will not waste my time with radio talk shows rebranded as podcasts.

I am guilty of chucking Second Wind and Friends Per Second on the TV when there's nothing good on since they talk about good topics and bother with presentation for a viewing audience, though.
