Assuming a dub is equally as well acted as a sub, would you still say the sub is better? I would argue no, neither is objectively better, but an English speaker watching a sub will lose a lot of the acting nuance unless they're on some level familiar with how Japanese speakers emphasize and intone their speech.
Hearing it in your native tongue will, in general and in my opinion, help viewers connect with the story and characters more easily and potentially much better because you don't need to study to intuitively understand characters just through tone.
The difference is one is manipulating a continuous flow of money out of your wallet and you pay once for Balatro to get the same rush without getting psychofinancially milked for the CHANCE at a hit of dopamine before you pay again for the privilege.
Actually this is probably something good to discuss with him directly. Brainstorming ways of grabbing his attention in a way that respects his privacy together goes a long way toward earning good will, even if you make a mistake later on. Sometimes brain just stops working. My mom has always been good about respecting my privacy, but one day she just opened my door, something she never made a habit of doing and started talking... Right in the middle of some self-care.
As embarrassed as I was, we were laughing about it the day after. She was excited to tell me something nice is all, and I could trust her apology afterward because of our rapport. How could I stay mad?
The path toward peace is not "let the blatant aggressor get everything they want without concessions." Usually, if you want peace, you tell the instigator to knock it off or MAKE them knock it off. Otherwise, all that's learned is they can do it again, consequence-free.
Spoon-fed? What? States are HUGE. If you don't ALREADY have a car you own, you gotta have fare for a bus or a train. If you don't? You have to walk, and that's not a realistic option for most people, particularly those who live in conservative areas spanning multiple states. God forbid you live in southern Texas. Cars are expensive, and fare for transportation out of state is also pretty damn expensive, especially since these dangerous areas tend to neglect their affordable public transport options. It's great that YOU have the money upfront to even start getting out. Not everyone has the privilege.
To be clear, I'm not arguing against getting out. I'm taking umbridge with your statement that "It costs nothing to get in your car..." etc. GETTING a car is a cost.
Except, you know, the cost of the car and the gas and the food and shelter when you do get across state lines. All famously very cheap and affordable things.
Seconding this. There's so much to do and so many ways to customize how you wanna play while still unlocking new things to play with. Great, we'll designed little game that I've been playing for years.
Medically necessarily to have a chance to live, YES. You are confusing medically necessary with profitable, which is the whole point behind the outrage and the reason why the insurance "industry" is monstrous and dispicable.
It doesn't matter if you "agree" with it in the same way that it doesn't matter if you "agree" with children growing above a certain height. It's going to occur. Treat them humanely.
And thank you for the vote of confidence! If this has been able to help even one person put this complex and often emotionally heavy interaction into an understandable framework then I'm happy. ❤️
