Saying bigotry is born from personal grievance is trying to assign some kind of logic to an illogical belief. We need to be more comfortable with saying that a bigot, racist, or whatever prejudices they have are because they suck and no amount of tragic backstory fixes their messed up worldview.

Sorry for the rambling. I just want people to be kinder or more understanding and it’s feel more and more impossible. I’m sorry.

That probably all sounded ramble-y but there is way too much f***in’ cynicism with trying to help people. You should help people to HELP or because you care, not to exert some control on policing how they live.

People who attach strings to what should be to help are people I never want to know. You should not give money or support “but only if you use it for these things” or “but only under these conditions” Putting restrictions on that is the same as saying “I want credit for being kind even if I’m not”

I also am convinced that, even in games with dialogue options, Link isn’t actually saying it. All the NPCs are just really good at reading facial expression and body language to know what Link means.

It’s interesting to me how Link’s mutism is expressed depending on the game. Sometimes it’s only vivid facial expressions for interpretation (WW), sometimes it’s physical inability (echoes of wisdom), and sometimes it’s psychological trauma manifesting as mutism and emotional suppression (Botw).

I have never seen it, will never see it, and will rewatch TRON Legacy as a palette cleanser just in case.

Happy Birthday! But also which one is the mischievous con man and which one has the voice of J.K. Simmons? I’m assuming these are universal twin qualities.

Humans don’t seem to have grasped the concept that, “Just because you say you love me doesn’t me you’re entitled to me loving you back.”

Suggestion…what if the gargoyles were instead the ones from the show Gargoyles? I can see Goliath having some opinions on the persecution experienced by Quasimodo and the Romani.

I knew it! A great museum but the decision to have several representations of Raven surrounded by valuables is bold. Depending on the myth and tribe, he’s got a reputation.

Ever read Rise of the Mano? Not so much the sentient islands but the premise being Hawaiian mythology based.

They waste time and energy on politics, social media, AI, and space travel when they could just buy beads. I genuinely believe so much would be solved by billionaires getting a hobby as productive, time consuming, and finicky as making beaded jewelry.

Clearly the various crimes they commit are used to fund their musical endeavors. Plus, their faces on the 6 o’clock news gives them exposure.
