漂泊天涯

I’m really sorry for making you think that the way I described the different characteristics between two different ethnic groups means my preference for one rather than the other. I’ve never meant that one ethnic group is better than the other or that the other is uglier than the other. I never thought of stereotyping any features or underestimating them. I just wanted to explain my choice of artistic style and how I decided to represent the characters.

In any case, this situation was caused by my bad choice of words that I used to explain myself and that led to this misunderstanding.

I really apologize for all the problems and inconveniences. I apologize to all the people who felt insulted, underestimated and hurt by what I wrote. I did not want to make you feel that way, I did not want to offend or insult you in any way. I’m really sorry for what happened.

In conclusion, if my artistic contents are the source of any kind of discomfort, I will delete this account and all my works.

There was always a specific spot where anything mechanical would shut down. Cars would stall and a four wheeler would cut off

A graveyard that didn’t belong to our family sat beside the home. We don’t know the names on the gravestones

There was a skeleton in the forest. We don’t know who passed there

A home at the beginning of the road burned down but the chimney remained. I swear we could see smoke coming from it sometimes

There were figures in the wheat fields sometimes but they were too far away to see. Grandpa said they were neighbors and we should never talk to them

My great grandmas house sits next to my grandpa’s, abandoned, and we were told to never go in there

Laura Bailey herself explained that when she auditioned for the role, she was given no information about what the character looked like. It was only after she was hired and arrived for recording that she was shown concept art and discovered the character was a WOC. She was uncomfortable about the situation.

Meanwhile, Neil Druckmann revealed that they were already working on concept art of the character when they hired Laura Bailey. They finalized the character’s design as a WOC after they’d hired a white voice actress, so that was a conscious decision. He was also very flippant about the situation as a whole.

Parents: you’re what now?

Teen: I don’t want to have sex with people until I form a really deep, emotional connection with them.

Parents: good? That’s kind of what our sex talks have always been about? Being in love with someone and being really sure about them before having sex?
