It's a little better than Homecoming, but still not very good IMO 😭 Passable combat, bland enemy designs, and much worse writing than any of the main series games. Plus it was the first game not to have Akira Yamaoka's music, and the atmosphere REALLY takes a hit as a result.

If it ever gets so dire that my district suggests I shouldn't be teaching *the concept of empathy,* then they can fucking fire me, lol. Might as well say we can't talk about gravity.

Not that I believe we're going there, but who the hell knows at this point.

At a teacher training today:

Me: "I'd like to push back on using the word 'tolerance.' What we really need to be teaching is empathy, and we should call it that."

Admin (half-joking): "Some people might think that's controversial."

Me: "Yeah, well. Fuck 'em."

There were a lot of different haircuts in the google results so I'm just going to assume you wanted the one that looks a bit like Tidus Final Fantasy

He's also outspokenly anti-zionist, which is admittedly irrelevant to his musical skill but I think it's fucking awesome

Roger Waters of Pink Floyd is probably my pick.

At the very least, he's the only lyricist who holds my personal distinction for both:

A) making me feel pointed existential dread, and

B) making me want to listen to his songs over and over again

Lyrics from Pink Floyd's "Time:"

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain

You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today

And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

Lyrics from Pink Floyd's "Money:"

Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're giving none away

Lyrics from Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here:"

So you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
