Wild Hippy
The little cubed characters are from a video game called Minecraft. I have played this game since I was a kid. Minecraft has been here since 2009 and is still popular to this day. The grids help me with my anxiety and make me feel calmer. You have so much creative freedom in this game to do anything in this game.

Usually people younger or older than our generations won’t have these. If they are younger they probably aren’t that interested in games yet and if they’re older they probably have grown out of video games.

Xbox is a relatively new invention that did not exist in the 1900s. In the future, when people have even better technology, they will look back and think our technology was more limited than there’s.
