the minecraft pipeline

 is nostalgia a good thing?

this is what i was wondering today while talking to my friend. we shared a similar childhood, being absolute nerds and having unrestricted access to the internet, so we actually had a lot of common interests. one of these was 2010s and early 2020s Minecraft youtube. i think it was super interesting how we both valued and remembered this time of our lives so well, and still could remember a lot of small details about it to this day. this led me to take a trip down memory lane and look at some of the priceless content that i no longer indulge in on a day to day basis. i had a BLAST. it brought back such good memories and just made me feel so young again (yes i know i'm young. i'm not even in senior school. but still!). this led me to think - what are some more childhood experiences that i had vague memories of, experiences i treasured dearly, but were eventually lost to the trap of time (growing up)? also, how did these influence my current interests and shape me to be the way i am today?? so i went on a little internet adventure. i pirated old games, watched kids movies, found my favourite content creators from when i was a kid, even listened to music i liked when i was young.

anyways - it was a lot of fun. i'll probably revisit this topic a few times, cos i think it's super interesting (and also i want to talk about minecraft youtube).

see ya!
