What's your favorite song about growing up?

This song still hits, even if I would modernize it by changing it to "Growing up on a Gamer Chair"

And I'd probably change this part too:

> How many things that you believe
> Are straight out of subreddits and blue check tweets

Not that the TV isn't still a powerful and notable piece of how we got here. A lot of the media I consume seems to be built around the idea that the TV boom at the end of WW2 irresponsibly brought the horrors of war in to our homes. You know, a lot of the complaints we hear now about the internet. Now TV and the internet just want to tell you unrealistic depictions of the "evil" immigrants that don't actually describe anyone in reality. More people need to play Billy Eichner's Immigrant or Real American quiz.
