What a thrill to finally share my piece on two of my favorite games: Snake Eater & Guns of the Patriots. I interrogate how Kojima shows us cyclical violent worlds but still attempts to guide us toward non-violence (in sometimes questionable ways).

crazy that you have to pay $275 up front to just get a medical weed card in florida (and then $150 every seven months after???) solely because of the idiotic law that we needed 60% of voters instead of 50% for recreational legalization (we got 56%)
