  • Hearing the handful of white people in the crowd at the theater gasp at the first N-word being dropped in blazing saddles and then forgetting about doing that again for the subsequent ones was interesting. Hearing one of them shame on this town for so little people coming out to see this film and when I said “hell yeah this my second time watching it” because I wanted to be social and talk to people as the movie ended I just got a yeah… as they walked away.

    Man it’s a weird feeling when white people do this, performatively gasp at the N-word but not wanting to talk to brown people. There’s only so many “I’m just super attractive and intimate people” monologues I can do after the fact when things like this happen.


  • racism in yakuza series

    Playing kiwami 2 and like the main plot of the series for this one has to do with the korean mafia in the game, I remember playing the ps2 game and thinking damn they really went hard on them. I get it it’s a crime game so everyone of them is in a gang to be part of this story but damn still.

    I feel 4 handles immigrants better especially with the cop, once again just realizing they made the cop lady of korean descent from 2 a cop. The sense of community in that game was good for the story. I do want to go back and play it all the substories for 4 now.

    Afterward I don’t remember 5 having much to do with immigrants same with 6 and 7. 6 does have the return of the korean mafia and 7 kind of too but I feel there issues are more in the background.

    I also can’t help but mention black people in these games, usually when they have black people they’re usually americans. For the most part they aren’t so bad, yeah they have a terrible accent but it’s par for the course with these games for all foreigners. Gary Buster Homles has a mention in my mind, I like him a lot and eventually they lean into him being more american in dead souls which I love.








  • My days have consisted this week of wake up make lunch, drive mom to work, head to training study for 8 hours, pick up mom, drive home, eat and sleep. Gonna be like this for at least 7 more weeks before I’m done with this energy career training. Everyone real nice and I’m learning a lot right now.

    I do need to hit up the gym more on the weekend and meal prep wash clothes etc. I might take myself out to watch sinners, think I have a free ticket on my theater account I can take advantage of. I’m in the need for treats that are free since money is tight.
