tanteI wonder if this trend of "Kidults" (as in adults buying toys or having other very "child-like" hobbies and preferences) is fueled by how little pathways to joy we leave to adults so many revert back to when Ninja Turtles made them happy.
If you actually like toys or Cartoons or whatever, go apeshit. (I also love me some Invader Zim and other things). But It feels a bit regressive when the only path to joy is leading backwards and not in the present or the future.

One of the disappointments of adulthood for me, personally, is how much adult 'fun' is based around a bar, pub, etc. I don't really drink, I don't have much interest in drinking, and I don't enjoy that atmosphere (childhood was heavily impacted by alcoholism around me).
Even when I was involved in party politics, events always seemed organized around alcohol. Is the only 'fun' for adults substance based?
