Everything that used to be good sucks
Am I depressed? I don’t believe that I am, but maybe I am. This post isn’t to detract from people experiencing true depression and I hesitate to even make this post.
Is it just me, or does everything just kind of suck now? Everything I used to like just doesn’t hit the same anymore. I’m sure part of it is middle age, but I used to be an avid sports fan, and the greed and play style of virtually every sport I loved, basketball, baseball, football to an extent is just so homogenized and feels like some cheap product now.
I’m an avid music fan and the concert experience is fucking atrocious at least in my city. Many of the bands I enjoy either quietly quit or can’t afford to do national touring anymore.
Every movie studio gave up making quality movies in hopes of making a blockbuster, 2025 is the first year in well over a decade where I felt some optimism about cinema.
TLDR basically everything I experienced release from sucks now. Anyone else go through that realization?
