These were the shit growing up
The kids yearn for the mines
Is that why they play Minecraft?
Always has been
Kids in my generation:
“Mom, can I have my GameBoy back?”
A girl in my class: proud owner of a PS1, plays Spyro and Medievil constantly.
Same girl as an adult: “I don’t even knew what a video game was, I played outside.”
I remember opening parts of the blinds so the street lights would brighten my Gameboys display for some quality past bedtime gaming

Are we becoming boomer now? I certainly feel like it
Smaller kids still love playgrounds, even if they also want/love screentime. Heck, it is not infrequent there are a group of younger teenagers at the playgrounds we frequent.
Diggy Diggy hole
Core memory resurfaced from the playground near my late grandma’s house.
