90s kids aren't special. Every generation is nostalgic.
90s kids were over marketed with every need-to-have-item that our boomer parents wouldn’t buy for us because they grew up poor in the shadow of WW2, and now we’re willing to fork out the cash for everything we felt we missed in the 90s.

Yep, like scrubs and 30 rock removed all the blackface episodes from streaming (because they both had multiple!!!!????)
Since The Simpsons removed Stark Raving Dad from online platforms and syndication, they should be fair and remove every episode with an alleged paedophile celebrity.
It might sound harsh but the show will be much easier to binge when there are only like 30 episodes left.

Dental insurance is great because it feels so comforting to have coverage for preventative & emergency care, only to realize dentists who actually accept insurance are mediocre, misdiagnose, and miss obvious problems. I end up paying more to solve preventable problems missed by these dentists.
Dental insurance is great because sometimes they say I’ve already paid for three months in the future and sometimes they say I owe them for two months and it might be cancelled and sometimes they never take my payment at all, I think they just randomly pick one like it’s a fortune cookie

The best and worst decision I ever made [today] was buying a 5 lb burrito, taking it home, ripping it open, doling out the fillings into three tortillas, and having three meal-size burritos, each lacking the flavor profile of the original.

I'm honesetly embarrassed for people who go up to the counter at starbucks and order a tik-tok viral drink from the barista so complicated that the app won't let them order it because the drink has so many steps and ingredients that the app literally can't process the combination.

Heated Rivalry exists in the universe of a romance novel. The characters we love will never die and will never be hurt in a truamatic way.
We live in the real world, not a romance novel, this world is full of hate, and real people will do horrible things to people just trying to live their truth.

Everyone celebrating or encouraging athletes in men’s sports for coming out post-Heated Rivalry need to understand the context the show exists in. This soccer ref went viral for proposing to his fiancé on the pitch & then they were assaulted in their home after receiving threats.

Where can I actually buy kids toys?
Refuse to use amazon and target and five below.
Toys r Us doesn't exist anymore.
Independent toy store prices have tripled since 2024.
TJ Maxx and CVS toy sections shrunk significantly since 2024.
I'll still have to pay $20 for shipping.
I'm stumped.

When a nutritionist's diet is causing health problems and it took them 5 years on their own (no doctor) to figure out diet was the cause...
1) can I trust them with my diet to support my health?
2) does nutrition science mean anything and is ever reliable long term?

A conservative Utah lawmaker is trying to raise taxes on people who consume porn.
HB73 would force Utahns to pay a special 7% tax — on top of sales tax — for every fan site subscription, camming tip, clip download or other purchase of "material harmful to minors."

Utah lawmakers aim their sights at streaming services, porn sites for taxes
A bill introduced in the Utah State Legislature would impose a new tax on pornographic websites, while a separate piece of legislation closes a tax loophole on streaming services.
