The one that put video game music as an art form on the map.

Did someone say it was a conspiracy?

Are you an American? Start planning how to get out of there.

This isn't a realistic option for most people. On an individual basis, it's expensive and difficult if not nearly impossible for many people. On a macro level, there is simply nowhere so many of us can go.

This is really it, my entire worldview was shaken and is adrift. There was other non-COVID stuff around that time for me that intensified it, too. I look at that person from 2019 and feel like she is a stranger.

NYT games to wake my brain up and allow me to endlessly procrastinate with actually getting my day started.

Who said that? Lead poisoning is still rampant in some communities.

This is pretty high stakes

Okay this is my favorite

YES her super close friendship and subsequent dramatic friend breakup with Karlie Kloss is exactly the kind of shit I did when I was closeted.

Even though leaded gasoline and leaded paint have been outlawed for decades in the US, it's still a big problem in poor communities. Lots of old houses still have lead paint. Lead abatement is expensive and many people may not even know it's something you need to do.

and we can stop exploding nukes

We might be going backwards on this one

They really aren't power users though. Tech is a) generally more reliable and b) so locked-down that so many young people never learned how to troubleshoot

We don't know about the longer term consequences yet, just like we didn't about lead.

Not saying it's a definite but I wouldn't be surprised.

I too have spent way too much time wondering why "ov" didn't look quite right

Have your asked your dad? What does he say? Did you tell him that you think it would be harder for you and ask what his opinion is?

Not saying you have to, just curious if you did how it went. I'm in a similar boat.

This doesn't answer your question, but I'm curious. You say your writing is good but your reading is bad. In my experience reading and writing are so intrinsically linked, and reading is the easier of the two. If it's possible can you explain the difference for you? I just find it really interesting!

When you can't tap a button to fill the text dialogue, and have to wait for each letter to individually populate for 15 speech bubbles in a row.

I tried to find this video not on tiktok but couldn't, sorry. But here's an example: https://www.tiktok.com/@donnarodgers492/video/7398470961059712299

Just don't say it. Just skip the word. And if you do it when singing privately,it should be an automatic habit when you do it around other people.

I'm glad you pointed out that this is in reference to old literature. Whenever I see a white person singing to a song and they say it "because it's just part of the song," hard cringe. Just didn't say it. Skip the word. It's easy.

A good example I can think of is that young white man at the DNC singing along with Not Like Us who was so joyous and animated and went viral. When it came to the n-word, he just skipped it. Just fist pumping and keeping the energy, and closing his mouth for one word. A lot of people noticed and were grateful that he was respectful in this way.
