I'm getting really into Pokemon Go now... I live about a 40 minute walk from university so I can just turn it on while I walk through the gardens and find a few things. I wasn't into Pokemon games before this, but mi having fun.

And yeah there are alot of really insane stories going on around Pokemon Go. My all time favourite is that the Westborough Baptist Church (that really homophobic hateful church in Kansas) is a Pokemon Gym, so someone took it over with a Clefairy called LoveisLove, so now the church is actively playing Pokemon to try get rid of it, and it's honestly my favourite thing in the world.

Anyway here's some more stuff that's happening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-tECG0DKLg

There's been some...odd unexcepted consequences from the game, but overall I'd say it's defenitley helping people alot more than it's hurting them. People are getting outside, they're exercising, it's making alot of people socialise with other Pokemon players, it's helped ALOT of people with mental illness like depression and anxiety by getting them outside, and while the game's far from perfect, it's just plain fun. 10/10 would recommend when the servers work.
