When I go visit my family I like to take my instax and take and print photos for them.
Its important.
I've still got photo albums, that have pictures going back 2 or 3 generations of my family.
Most kids or under 30s today won't have that. They're entire life is on a phone, probably stored in a cloud that could be deleted or lost at a moment's notice.
Seeing someone smile when you hand them a photo to keep is a blessing.
The joy of going through an old photo album, taking out the pictures and laughing about them with your friends and family is a treasure that's going to be lost for future generations, its just not the same scrolling through a gallery on your phone.
So print your photos, give them to people, hang them up, save them. Its a relatively safe way to permanently record that you existed. When you lose your phone or memory cards get corrupted or cloud services ban you, those printed photos will be precious, especially to hand down to your children.

Bitchat reminds me of CB radio a bit.
I was too young when CB was around but I messed with it years later.
The fun part was these super cool business cards people used to make and swap in person, Patrick Bateman would have loved them.
Name one YouTube (or alternative) creator that you think deserves more attention.
I'll start with Mental Outlaw.
He's pretty popular tbh (700k subs) but doesn't get mentioned much.
I'd post the link but I'm suspicious of YouTube links ๐ค
Why did the whole, deliveroo, uber eats thing suddenly become so popular? Over the last two years any walk down the high street involves having to avoid endless aggressive delivery cyclists in the middle of the street.
How did people get this lazy? Also who can afford to pay constant delivery charges lol. What's wrong with walking or driving yourself to get stuff.
I get that previously you would phone up for your Saturday take away and get it delivered, but now people are getting their lunch and coffee, McDonald's breakfast and alcohol delivered. Its so crazy to me.
Am I missing something? Being unfairly grumpy? Am I shouting at clouds here lol.
Its ruined actually going to a fast food or take away shop, as you end up having to wait ages while they deal with all the angry looking delivery drivers before sorting your order out, it sucks.
