Eevee > Glaceon and Sylveon, Charcadet > Armarouge and Ceruledge, and I also like Genesect.

I think it's fair to pick a few with how many there are now.

Pretty sure it's a loofah.

That's a dried up ~~and nasty~~ sponge

Looks like loofah to me.

Boomers can't understand why gen-z can't put their phones down and watch the TV like a normal person. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

To play devil's advocate; being on your phone is an isolating activity, while watching the TV is generally more communal, and was especially so in the era in which Boomers have spent most of their life.

Millenials and most Gen Z have shows that everyone watched growing up, but that's going away increasingly, with on-demand streaming and customized feeds replacing the latter. I think it's a very obvious culprit of why young people today struggle to talk to one another.

I am Gen Z.

I think that is the most "correct" interpretation of it. Maybe they're saying that it's been bent over time.

I'm fairly sure that Jessie is the only* live-action Disney Channel show where the protagonist or titular character is canonically an adult human. (programming.dev)

If you include non-humans, then Stan from Dog with a Blog is the second adult protagonist, albeit a dog.

*Raven's Home stars Raven-Symoné as an adult in-canon, but I'm reluctant to include it since it is a spin-off of Raven's teenage character in That's So Raven.

If you accept movies and works where there is a shared protagonist role, then you could count Freaky Friday and I assume its spin-offs.

What are some product categories where the mainstream option IS the best option? (programming.dev)

I was eating some chocolate when I imagined a world where Hershey's was widely accepted, even by elitists, as the best chocolate.

Is consumer elitism just a facade for pretentious contrarians? Or are there things where even most snobs agree with the masses?

Also, I mean that the product is intrinsically considered to be the best option. I'm not considering social products where the user network makes the experience.

Edit: I was not eating Hershey's. Hershey's being the best chocolate is a bizarro universe in this hypothetical.
