My best friend was looking through old photos he found in his parents attic from when he was a young child. He was born in 1991. They were all small and average quality, likely taken by the first era of digital cameras and the throw aways you would buy at CVS, but there was something about all the photos that made me long for that time...and I wasn't even born then. I felt a connection the same way he did. In all the photos, himself as a kid, his sisters and brothers, his family, everyone looked as though they had this indescribable light in them. There was something different about all the smiles and all the scenes. Nobody was posing for a photo. Nobody looked out of place. It all just fit together, so comfortably. Everything and every photo just looked like a moment in time that was perfect. This all really struck me in a way I wasn't ready for. Again I wasn't even born then but these photos touched me in a way I didn't know was possible. Like a time when things were just right.
No. Britain in the late 1800s was peak civilization.

It all went to shit after the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965.

This is your brain on porn and TikTok. Can't even read one paragraph. I actually feel bad for you. You're a drug addict and you don't even know it.

90s internet was extremely comfy

This, why do people fantasize about years they don't even remember? Most people who are our age then wouldn't think any different. Later zoomers will say this about the 2010s you wait.

There was like two whole people on the internet back then and it'd have been extremely slow.

Early 2010s weren't the 2000s level of comfy but it was still a fun and chaotic time.

>first era of digital cameras Didn’t start until 1999 and they were expensive as fuck
Parker Rodriguez
A more accurate depiction would be seeing covid as 9/11, zoomers will think the world was a magical place before the pandemic.
Nicholas Ramirez
its funny because nobody in that entire geographical region has turkish ancestors
When you took photos on a disposable camera you had no idea how they turned out until they were developed. Unlike today where people will take multiple photos until they get the "perfect" photo, you would just take one and hope for the best. So it makes sense they have more life in them. They were more candid and less staged.
