due to not wanting to, i will not. thanks.

There was at least one big name professional “journalist” who claimed he couldn’t get past the first minute of P5 because it refused to proceed until he admitted that this was a work of fiction and he was apparently incapable of doing that.

This is such a bizarre concept to me because media is inherently passive--you choose to watch, to read, to play, etc. A movie or a book or a game can't "violate" your consent, because you can stop anytime things become uncomfortable. You are in control of your experience. If you can't acknowledge fiction as fiction, maybe you shouldn't be interacting with it.

This made me feel old, cause I remember when I would “rescue” all my songs from Kazaa and Limewire, all while dodging fake versions and viruses. Then I would have to manually rename the files to “[band name] - [song name]” before putting them all in their own folders.

Remember when you had to put a CD in the CD player and take it out and do it again for each and every album you wanted to hear??

My car in high school had a 6 CD deck in the trunk, which was great when I had it prepared, but I remember when friends would give me a CD to check out I had to literally get out of my car, go to my trunk, swap out CDs, then get back in before I could listen to it.

I’m crying tears of joy
