ITT: Weird shit from your childhood that suddenly stopped existing. I'll go first
>I remember at midday, the sun was very yellow and warm. Now it is blinding white and burns. I remember you could look directly at the sun for a few seconds before it started to hurt. Now it's like even a split-second causes horrid irritation.
>I remember the world map having a fairly large island to the west of Australia
>I remember that the thing everyone was worried about was 'global cooling' and that something would cause an ice age

Something will, the sun.

>Weird shit from your childhood that suddenly stopped existing.
Being able to get a cheap snack at a fast food restaurant. Greedy bastards adopted a "minimum price to entry" model.

Yellow sun and deep blue skies never happened goy, mist clouds and blinding white sun have always been. Sunglasses were never optional.

yes, I can remember that too. that you could look 1 to 1,5 seconds in the sun (summer, midday) and that it was yellowish not plain white

>>40613651 (OP)
>everyone was worried about was 'global cooling'
At last I find someone else who remembers that!

By the way, when I was a child, summers was more hot, and everybody was ok with it.
>1980s/1990s: 30-35°C was normal, 40~45°C the hottest days.
>2000s/2010s/2020s: 29°C is a deadly heatwave, 33°C: "OMG last time the weather was so hot there were still dinosaurs!!!" says TV and everybody believes it.

>>40615283
okay, it would be hilarious if the earth is actually cooling down and it is sold as heating up and everyone believes in it. i remember +30° or +33° in summer to (end 80ys and 90ys)

>>40615283
I'm from AUS and personally I don't remember it being hotter, I remember it always just being hot as fuck. But weirdly on our news they keep saying stuff like "50 year record" and shit for whenever it's been over 40C, despite that happened several times per year minimum, lol.

>shaggy had an adam's apple
Shaggy from Scooby Doo? He definitely had, I remember that: I had just noticed that my older cousin and my older brother had one, so I checked and luckily I didn't, I was watching Scooby Doo, then I saw that Shaggy had one too, so I looked at my older sister, who was watching with me, and she didn't have one either, that's when I learn that only grownup males have one, not girls and not little boys. ( I have one now :( )

Crazy how every fucking family turned into fucking rabid retarded faggots. I don’t even want to make I political, because it wasn’t, but there came a time if a family who was liberal found out you were conservative they’d fuck with you until they blew up and then they’d shun you, same thing happened with “normal” or non-political families, i remember random friends parents becoming hostile to everyone and then their kid would also turn into a faggot who’d just try and sabotage you if you hung out. The weirdest part was some of my closest friends would fall to this, and dudes I barely knew would comment on it to me, and we both be like “yeah wtf is with people?”, this started years ago, and it obviously become the norm for everyone, zoomers are so fucking gay and hostile.
>>40615177
Yeah, it was always wild when it was 9:30 pm and the sun was literally just setting. I live further south now and it’s still not even close to how it was.

>>40616103
They def took pay phones away early so more people got pushed into cellphones. I remember being in the city and someone telling us they took out all the pup homes except the ones in the subway.

The big thing I miss is the pizza shops, there was a Bertuccis pizza place that had an arcade and would give you pizza dough to eat and it was great.

Fucked up we found out our tax money paid for pizza places to update to modern gay Marxist aesthetic.

Be sure to curse the enemy with every breath and movement, curse them in the name of Jesus or Enlil or Lucifer. We hold all the keys.

planes don't make any noise any more, some do (especially fighter jets) but the planes flying really high up are dead silent.

It's because Jet engines have become quieter so they can build airports closer to cities, this one isn't really hard to understand it's like saying Phones have gotten smarter since the 80s lol

No fucking way. First Pikachu's tail and now this? His adam's apple was iconic. He looks fucking weird without it. I used his design to draw a stoner character as a kid. I know I'm not "misremembering".

>>40619358
no they haven't, most of the noise is the air going through the turbine so the change in sound level would be marginal at best.

>>40615440

What? Of course he has one.

I remember the background being dark brown and the characters were possibly human

Thanks for trying tho, I appreciate it

>>40619408
I would bring up the science and engineering behind it but someone like you would just refuse that because it's too complex for you to understand

Unfortunately anon you are too stupid to educate, you'd make a great infantry man tho

>>40619470
>the planes are just quieter now okay?!? and no you don't get to see how it actually works
sure thing pal.

Seems to be getting darker earlier compared to other summers, also people are freaking about temps we had many times before.

>>40614613
That’s a trip

>>40615331
Aus here too and I agree. I remember when I was young there'd be weeks of 35-40c days, but lately it's just a couple days like that a year.

>big rocks in the woods being sleeping giants/ogres
>it was a common known fact too, like people just knew about it and avoided them
>animals went missing and all that
>people generally talking about things like the giants in the woods, to the point where I even knew giants lore and stuff like giants vulnerable spot in case I need to fend off one
>animals getting stolen by giants was matter of fact occurance, people avoided the woods and especially large stones in the woods
Nowadays it's pretty unheard of and if you talk about it people look weird at you. Some old folk might remember but most are dead by now. It's still fucking wild to me how matter of fact and common place was for people and villagers to talk about giants in the woods and how careful everyone was about it, and now it's like it's been memoryholed entirely and younger people just taking fancy hikes around like it's nobody's business.

Believe me if you want but as I child I often saw vivid apparitions during the night. It wasn't sleep paralysis and I was fully awake, could move around and observe them for minutes before they vanished. This gradually occured less and less as I grew older until I stopped seeing them entirely.

Same. Still remember some of them very clearly. And it happened most nights. Most of them were nonsensical, like groups of random shapes, objects and characters just flying around. Also, I remember generally being aware that those things aren't real, but still seeing them in a very literal sense and even being able to interact with them somewhat. It just stopped happening before I finished preschool

Weird as fuck. But I heard it happens to some kids. Something to do with having trouble fully falling asleep and basically being stuck in a state between dream and wakefulness for extended periods of time

>>40625033
I remember a curious effect I noticed when letting one eye go lazy. One eye would see the apparitions, the other wouldn't.
I could close one eye or the other to see the difference. When I opened both and looked directly, now the other eye could see them too.

>>40625123
Is that why after 20+ years of people from all walks of life pleading for answers has been left ignored? This isn't a new phenomena there are tons of footage from local civil meetings of professional people asking for answers on what is being sprayed in the atmosphere. During the global psyop known as covid where every country on the planet injected their populations with a novel MRNA technology the atmospheric spraying was ramped up exponentially.

Imagine the resources poured into this project over the last 20 years, truly a monolithic project. The resources invested will absolutely reflect the function of the aerosols, it will be a major function of whatever agenda is being carried out by the ruthless and monolithic conspiracy that blew JFK's head off.

If I had to guess it's a medium for ELF to beam directly into vaxxie skulls who have acquired graphene interfaced MRNA bio-machines.
