Amy's Giant Bees

Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

When the story has a sequence where the characters each get personally tortured with their exact personalized greatest fears and traumas

Mohammed Abu Alwan is raising three young children alone after the killing of his wife in an IDF strike.

Every morning, the queen asked her magic mirror to show her the most beautiful person in the world.

The first time, she says "To me," and the mirror dutifully shows her her reflection. And she is pleased.

I've gotta be honest,but I despise how terribly Kagha gets treated by the narrative and by Halsin fans,when she only aligned with the Shadow Druids out of desperation and to protect the Grove from the Goblins,since their Archdruid had basically just fucked of without much warning. Sure it wasn't a great idea,but its understandable why she did what she did and yet Halsin is framed as in the right,even though he was being reckless and makes for a crappy leader tbh.😒

If it helps, Halsin admits that his faith in Kagha was really a mistake- he gives approval (though only "this is a good answer" not "this is the most true answer") if you answer that was his biggest mistake in the Zethino love test. He also readily says he was a bad leader. And that's why he wants to leave so badly. Like people (not you, OP, just in general) seem to miss that Halsin being a bad leader is the entire POINT of his character. He was forced to take the role because everyone else who could have literally died. He wasn't exactly set up for success with leadership. He is very clear that he hated being a leader, and in fact doesn't trust people who actually WANT leadership positions because he feels they either have good intentions but a poor understanding of what a burden it is, or they have outright bad intentions. (He probably thought Kagha was the former and was blind to her being the latter). Halsin did the best he could, then brought in someone who could actually lead properly when he was finally able to justify it to the Emerald Enclave.
