‘This thread was made by a sober partier’

You’re part of the problem bro

lmao what the hell is your problem

global shutdown -> third places and usual social climates like school/work/hobbies are digitized -> humanity normalizes this behavior as how we’ve always functioned for some reason once back into reality -> graduating into hard to find jobs -> AI -> incoming economic crash -> corruption in just about every country at unprecedented levels -> wars (violent/race/gender) -> endless algorithmic doomscroll now exists to compile all that in a feed for you in between memes

the youth are F***ED. especially since everything starts at home and people DO NOT CARE as they are trying to make up for lost time due global shutdown on top of the new normal we have accepted into our lives in less than 10 years that content is king and our devices will make us rich and fulfilled. older generations tryna keep up with and hold on to their youth who have no hope for the future with an incoming class of older leaders to the youth who also do not give a f*** as they were raised in the last global economic failures and wars and new norms and finally have access to incomprehensible amounts of wealth and unlimited power as the rules no longer matter

but also could just depend on the spot/location you are at. You go to a Amapiano DJ set, I doubt the vibes aren’t dancing and socializing, but these events are also dwindling

I was out on friday & we were grooving
Whole room was
DJ threw on Suavemente & I had to break the hips out one time

But yeah, alot of night life is a rip off & being crushed by capitalism
Yakubs leaning on the pills & powders because the drinks are a rip

Definitely had more great nights out ~5 years ago than over the past couple years

Be the change you wanna see in the club

The plot twist @Bruises @Thisisnotanalt is that my sober ass turns up more at a club then the people at the bar/drinking to the side.

Anxiety and all.

One would think the opposite would be happening

I fw bars way more than clubs ngl i bet most gen z would say the same

Its covid mostly imo. S*** made us f*** up our social skills and gen z people started to be more health conscious. The economic situation is also present but I feel like the budget that was allocated for drinks and night outs it is now being used for “wellness”.

Gen Z?

Private parties >>>

Modern day clubbing was never good

Addy poppin white people surround by bad music and bad vibes

Imagine being under trash ahh charli xcx marketing campaign in 2026

Y'all have been "realizing" and "noooticing" this for like six years now.

I don’t think we need to pathologize single nights out

Also a lot of people itt have clearly never really gone out…

ketamine killed dancing

It really depends on the setting. If you go to latin clubs, places playing Brazilian funk, bollywood night, even amapiano, the crowd is completely different and it's a lot of fun.

What clubs have you been too...

Y'all don't be going to the Caribbean or Latin parties man.

Keep it that way honestly

Them latin clubs be lit asf

Like OP lives in NYC (moved there from ATL) how are you having these issues finding good clubs lmao

Go out deeper in Brooklyn. Go to the Bronx or Upper Manhattan. It's spots everywhere

If you go to them lame clubs yeah

Shi still poppin

As long as hoes dancing we good, don’t need to see no sweaty ass mfs dancing
