It’s weird when you stumble onto something you’ve never heard of, never seen a single stray reference to in any context, that’s apparently been so big for so long that you would have definitely expected to be at least dimly conscious of it by now, but no, it’s like a parallel universe just converged into yours and you just gotta live with it now. Like, for instance, seeing a bunch of weird toys at Wal-Mart and looking them up to find out they tie in with an ordinary suburban Christian family who market themselves and their kids as youtube gamers with over 12 billion views. Okay.
“Are you talking about the Ryan gamer family”
Oh.
I was not.
So now I know this has happened more than once actually.
I was talking about this one:
This is a collectible toy of just….a mom? A real mom? And there’s toys of her husband and children? Just in normal stores?? Because they all play video games and put it on youtube…???…….I really didn’t think I was old enough to start feeling confused or disquieted by what’s popular with modern children but here we are I guess
