I'll be catching up on some more records over Christmas, and will share some of my favourite music of 2025 in a week or so! 🙏 Would love folk to dig their teeth into some of it and let me know what they think.

I meant more societal problems are caused by it, rather than an individual's problems are haha, but grand!

I wish we'd do studies on this! It might be like that aphantasia thing; where some people cannot imagine an object in their minds, some cannot put themselves in someone's shoes. (Hell, the two might even be linked).

This definitely impacts people on the left too, I've seen plenty of it, but - I'm sorry to say, in my experience, it's probably the defining feature of the right and what pushes people that way. A terminal inability to put yourself in someone else's shoes.

The easy tell is when people say someone is virtue signalling.

More often than not, they cannot fathom why someone would emphasise with something that does not impact them at all. They're not intentionally being an ass, they just can't comprehend it. You see it here constantly.

yuuuuup

Wonderful work all, doing god's work preserving these games and making them accessible to more people!

You can think war is bad and people dying is bad, and understand the reality of it, without glamorising and commercialising it. Big difference between understanding the reality of it and wanting to financially support or own something made with metal from attack drones that kill real human beings.

why is everyone saying gommage

(I have yet to play Expedition 33, but I will in my own 33rd year)

He didn't sell the IP haha, he made it whilst at a publisher and that publisher always owned the property, in the same way Konami always owned Metal Gear. The creators did not get paid for the rights.

I'm always shocked anyone remembers that haha, thank you!
