Honestly I'm starting to forget what feeling like a kid was like. I'm 30 and yeah I don't have all the answers and shit, but my teenage years were defined by an internal conflict I resolved in college, my relationship with my parents (one died when I was in college the other disowned me when I was in college), and high school.

My college years were defined by the wild shit my previous sentence said I went through at that time, as well as my studies, financial and housing struggles, and a relationship that ended less than a year after I graduated, and I moved away from my hometown after college.

I'm 30, I'm married, I've continued growing as a person my whole life and have no intent to stop now, my financial struggles are those of an adult of my generation with a decent career. I don't really have any of the same problems I had as a kid except like my health and disability issues. Sometimes I have traumatic flashbacks to my teenage years but I haven't had one in years. My interests have even matured. Sure I still don't have all the answers, but anyone who says they do is lying to you and possibly themselves, and they may be trying to take advantage of you. I'm not a kid pretending to be an adult, I'm a person, and it turns out kids are too.

This is how I sleep knowing the only social media account I have is Facebook and I hardly use it.

Should sell it as homeopathic.

Yeah, it’s lunchables that are supposed to be “healthier” because they have the prime drink in it. (It’s got electrolytes! eg, salt)

I tried Prime a few times. Saw it at the gas station and figured I'd give it a try since I was going to grab a Bodyarmor. Very strong flavor. For me, really seemed to straddle the line between good and meh. Tried the energy drink once, terrible.

Then I learned that dip shit was behind it. Haven't bought it since.

Possibly at first but now there's a Canadian formulation, I see it at Giant Tiger and Circle K and there's the official Health Canada warning label on them.

Yeah I knew there'd be one of you I don't consider lemmy or reddit social media.

I considered them to be more or less news aggregators than anything else.

Just because there's the ability to leave comments doesn't necessarily make it social media.

I haven’t heard of the pfas lawsuit, man I’m glad the first time I heard about these things was when the caffeine lawsuit started. Apparently the lawsuit is alleging high levels of 8 different pfas compounds.

It was an obvious lie, there was no way the big grocers were smuggling them in at such scale

I mean it's a media platform, where you can interact socially - so social media?

I got some for free because my brother found a store that actually imports them (they aren't available in regular supermarkets) and bought some.

Tastes like a generic sugar-free drink, I'd just go with a regular energy drink since it tastes better

Some people define social media as platforms where you use your real identity as your name like Facebook and MySpace.

I started feeling like an adult when I was 28.

I’m trying to understand what the last two streaming services are.

I guess that’s even worse.

Content farma target children. The original doesnt.

I wouldn't call this social interactions. Tress commentary between anonymous people in a comments sections hardly qualifies as social and even though it's technically an interaction it's only just.

If you compare this to say, Facebook the interaction levels massively different.
