  • Yes. I’m a person of color that gets mistaken for hispanic, middle eastern, etc depending on location (I’m very mixed). I am also rich by most definitions (peasant by today’s standards). I made it a point to buy a brand new BMW i4 M50 EV and a used 2021 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG because I was getting harassed while driving my beloved Ford Fiesta. Since getting the nice cars, I have not been bothered once.

    It’s bullshit, but I understand the “why”. Bothering someone wity money is a pain in the ass and detrimental to their career. They can fuck with poor people all day long without consequences.





    • I used to be very religious, now I am an atheist.
    • I used to be a fiscal conservative, now I am a proponent of UBI and other democratic socialist ideas.
    • I use to think that you needed to eat a lot of protein with every meal, now I follow a whole food plant based diet
    • I use to be (arguably) a nymphomaniac…sex addict for sure…and now I am super chill and treat sex as a means towards emotional closeness rather than an Olympic competition.








  • OK. It’s a French animation studio that wanted to give their show a distinctively European feel. It makes sense that they would pull aesthetic inspiration from European graphic novels.

    Disco Elysium is one of the greatest video games ever made, and its aesthetics pull heavily from European graphic novels. It’d be a shame to miss out one either because you feel their art style is inspired by previous works.

    If you do decide to watch Arcane, do not binge it. It is meant to be consumed three episodes at a time. My recommendation to anyone reading this is to watch three episodes per day.

    Season 2 is rushed jut Season 1 is perfect.
