Anyone else getting tired of pop culture and nostalgia?

When this nostalgia nerd culture made a huge takeover in like 2016, anime and all these pseudo powerful series tropes as well as nostalgia became huge. Funko pops, nerd tees everywhere, anime; it actually all seemed cool, powerful, and fun. Something greater than yourself to relate to, or to relate to the inner perceived power you had. Without religion as a predominant force in society anymore and a nihilistic takeover, whos to say pop culture wasnt meaningful, almost like an overtake of mythology or religion to relate to, overdramatizing only a little of course.

You know telling myself there wasnt anything wrong, uncool or Childish about any of this stuff. Its culture, pop culture. I filled my home with action figures which I considered art sculptures, all kinds of random cartoons and nerd stuff, because nothing matters right?

Starting to feel like all this stuff might have actually set many of us back and infantilized us in some ways. We’re actually getting older now. As we were before already in our 20s, but now that we’re approaching 30s its feeling a bit out of hand. Maybe things do actually matter. And maybe this stuff actually Is immature and actually nerdy (not actually cool).

Its a matter of perception, and Im starting to think I might of been wrong. Closet full of graphic tees. Maybe there actually IS something lame and immature about always wearing graphic tees as an adult.

I just got on instagram, finally connecting with real people Ive actually known or know. And its only exacerbated the thought that maybe things do actually matter, and I should care that Im a skilless person with little social standing.

The feed scroll pops up and all this nostalgia stuff that I dont even follow pops up. And Im just like Ok, I get it, stop. Yea Halo 2 and Modern Warfare were great in their day. I dont need to be reminded of crap like that on a daily basis anymore. Can we start living in the present now?
