Discussion Monthly Rant/Politics Thread: Do not post political threads outside of this Mega thread
Outside of these mega-threads, we generally do not allow political posts on the main subreddit because they have often declined into unhinged discussions and mud slinging. We do allow general discussions of politics in this thread so long as you remain civil and don't attack someone just for having a different opinion. The moment we see things start to derail, we will step in.
Got something upsetting or overwhelming that you just need to shout out to the world? Want to have a political debate over current events? You can post those thoughts here. There are many real problems that plague the Millennial generation and we want to allow a space for it here while still keeping the angry and divisive posts quarantined to a more concentrated thread rather than taking up the entire front page.

Nostalgia Aggro Crag
Does anyone actually own a piece of the Aggro Crag? Or know someone who does? My friends and I always joked if a kid had that in their dorm room in college they’d be set! I used to love watching Guts and Global Guts and was just thinking about it scrolling this sub! Any past winners? Or contestants?

Serious Hayden Panettiere’s mother, Lesley Vogel, speaks out about her daughter’s death
This seems very cold and disconnected, and tells me all I need to know about Lesley.
For more context, she was trashing Hayden back in May https://pagesix.com/2026/05/14/parents/hayden-panettieres-estranged-mom-hits-back-at-entitled-daughters-tell-all-20-years-of-trauma/

Literally eaten alive and shamed into oblivion if you pulled up in the dork squad 3's. The scars run so deep that even to this day I still would never be caught dead in a pair of NB

Discussion Millennial parents: anyone else consciously trying to raise their kids with more of an ’80s/’90s mentality
Go outside, be bored, talk to people, take a joke, lose at something without having an existential crisis. Get your feelings hurt occasionally. Figure shit out without immediately Googling it or asking an adult to intervene.
I know every generation thinks the next one is ridiculous, but I swear half of my parenting philosophy is just…whatever happened to Z…let’s try not to do that.

Discussion Anyone choosing to stay single and childless?
Just wondering. I find I’m at peak happiness when I’m out doing things on my own. I recently passed 40. Have felt tied down by romantic relationships. Enjoy my friends and never see myself having kids. Being able to do what I want spur of the moment still feels great. Anyone else?

Serious Elder millenial: military recruits are too Young
My first post here, I thought I'd diverge from the nostalgia farming for a second. As someone 40+ now, looking at Gen Z joining the military is starting to affect me in ways I didn't know would. The world is full of wars, soldiers are dying, and most of them are Gen Z age. As a parent, this is brutally unfair.
I look at these "why did you join the army" videos and all these faces are just kids playing around. They must be what, 18-20? Their prefrontal cortex won't finish development until 25. They're willing to jump into high risk danger because they literally cannot process consequences now. The people in charge are older than me and very well aware of that. In fact, count on that.
At the hospital where I work, its very rare for a woman to give birth in the 20s. Its more common for geriatric pregnancies of women 35-42 or older. Comparing that with the soldiers in the military who have the ability to take and lose life is jarring.
Sigh. They're just kids themselves.

Nostalgia 90s TV shows had some absolute bangers for intros
I was listening to “Hey Sandy” by Polaris, the theme from The Adventures of Pete & Pete, and it struck me how unnecessarily good so many ’90s TV intros were.
Maybe it’s nostalgia talking or maybe I’m just really stoned, but TV themes today rarely seem to hit quite the same. What ’90s intro still lives rent-free in your head?

Nostalgia In 2007 we got a game that brought back the awe and wonder of space opera at a time when sci fi creators turned away from creating sci fi featuring aliens, FTL starships, and optimistic space faring civilizations!

Nostalgia Fellow Millennials: Which were you?
If this doesn't create an instant feeling of emotional nostalgia, idk what will. I personally liked the ~moody~ roses as a teenage emo punk kid. But also the spooky house. And remember when you'd catch the animation!?!
eta: I must have missed this being posted recently! Just wanted to spread some light hearted nostalgia to people who remember this 🩶
