Since COVID, spraying lysol and febreze is WAY more prevalent. I've developed full blown MCS because of it. I'm now having trouble finding trash bags and toilet paper that isn't scented.

I worry a lot about the generation of kids coming up with full access to the internet and social media. Their schooling and social contact was all completely online during COVID. Being constantly connected to everything by the internet is all they’ve ever known. Yet they still feel lonely and alienated. Depressed, anxious. The statistics on self harm and suicidal thoughts with teens are insane and so scary.
I feel like at a certain point when they grow up and understand the ramifications it will be studied as a sort of generational trauma and they’ll tell us, as parents, you should have protected us better… I do what I can but corporations and politicians DO NOT have their best interests at heart. If they are addicted to their products and making them money…that’s all they want.
The fact that the entertainment industry has weaned entire generations with a way to access popular works, or events such as sports and concerts - and then started to privatize them, first with cable, then with subscription services, and each of them with higher costs and more draconian controls than the last. It feels as if the concept of "popular culture" was manufactured to hook us into paying larger amounts of money to the entertainment industry.
