!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

2004 was 10 years ago right? Please?
I don't know why and I know it doesn't make sense, but apparently everything feels like it was about 10 years ago to my millennial brain.
Except 2020, that was like last year.
Except for 2020..the year that never was.never ended..feels like everything changed after 2020.
It kind of did. Shit started going to hell a lot earlier, but Covid (and the associated conspiracy theories etc. going mainstream) turbocharged it.
I have a method for estimating how many years ago something was - I think of a number and then double it. Used to work pretty well, but nowadays I'm noticing I need to add 4 to the estimate of anything that happened before COVID.
Both last year and lasted 50 years
I wasnt even born in 2004 and I will technically be able to legally adopt children in a few months
Bad news, it's 2026. So 12 years ago.
