  • There's a lovely series called Mysty. Part of a YouTube channel that I originally found because the guy is stumbling through creating his own 3D graphics engine.

    In Mysty he plays a lot of the old Myst-like games, many I'd never heard of. It's funny and worth checking out. He has played the first two Journeyman games so far. https://youtube.com/@notthefuture1881

  • I was there weird kid in high school that had a Mac but still liked playing computer games. My band teacher lent me his copy. It was the first point and click adventure game I actually finished!

  • There's something about focus or attention. If I hiccup, as soon as I realize it's happening it stops. If I'm drunk I might not notice for a bit and the hiccups will continue until I can bring my will to bear on them.

  • I'm rereading up the thread now and I see what you meant ♥️

    "Ancestors" seems like a clumsy term. Has some icky feelings for me - I think because of the white power types.

    "What's your ethnic background?" still sounds better to me. Awkward, but less so.

  • I'm not mixed race. However I am a born and raised New Yorker, and I sound it. Mixed background or not, first generation folks like me sometimes struggle with identity. It took me a while to come to grips with how Indian I am vs. how American I am. What those two terms even mean. And how I want to present myself to the world.

    I almost think of it like sexual orientation. There are times when it's important or okay to ask, and there are times to let it come up naturally in time. And no matter what, however someone identifies you really just need to accept it.
