  1. Politics of another country?

    Yep, politics in other countries can have a massive impact as the world is incredibly interconnected now. This is not entirely new, as the world system has had an impact on national and local politics for centuries now. However the speed at which it happens now is vastly quicker. The time it...
  2. Are video games art?

    It does depend entirely on how you are defining art, if you are simply using it to describe anything and everything which is man-made, then obviously all videogames would be considered art. It would be a much less subjective definition than the one I would favour, but it was also make the...
  3. Last Game Played

    Final Fantasy Brave Exvius
  4. Have you ever watched an entire anime in one sitting?

    Yes! That is the one I was thinking of! Thank you! I had forgotten what it was called. I can't even remember where I watched it!
  5. Juvenile Life Sentences?

    Yep, child endangerment as the 7 year old is definitely not developed enough to have that level of responsibility. But sadly they are old enough that this kind of experience could stay with them for the rest of their life. I sincerely hope they don't blame themself.
  6. Juvenile Life Sentences?

    I absolutely think that there should be a different criteria when judging juveniles of criminal behaviour. After all, a juvenile is anybody below the legal age. I mean are we really arguing that this seven year old should be charged as an adult? Although it is my understanding that a lot of...
  7. Environmentalism

    It isn't as important an issue here as it should be. To the point that even the most token gestures which are woefully inadequate represent quite massive changes in the political landscape. We do have a Green Party here, I am a member of them and have previously served in a minor administrative...
  8. Start a collection

    There are some which I have been really tempted to buy lately from Hunter X Hunter, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and also some more JoJo figures!
  9. Start a collection

    Thank you, yes, I really love them too! I think I have 20 or so more of them. As well as various other figures, mostly from collector's editions of games. I am possibly going to move again in about 5 years. So will look at moving to a bigger place then.
  10. What is your #1 favorite anime?

    Oh nice, I have one of their games on PS4 but I haven't really played it yet.
  11. Start a collection

    Sadly I have recently moved to a smaller place so lack of space means that some of them are still boxed away
  12. Start a collection

    I have three collections at the moment. I collect pop vinyls/ figurines, books, and videogames.
  13. What are you currently watching?

    One Piece
  14. this mom has one request: stop giving my kid junk!

    I think she bought it when she went back to visit family in Thailand. But I still really loved that she thought to get me a gift. As I totally wasn't helping her with the expectation she would get me something in return. She just asked for help and I was able to help her, so I did. I still think...
  15. Are video games art?

    They definitely have the potential to be art, but whether or not they are will come down a lot to the philosophy underpinning their development process. I would not acknowledge games that are designed to promote microtransactions as art, nor those which are simply being developed by the numbers...
  16. this mom has one request: stop giving my kid junk!

    Yeah, I tend to give the benefit of the doubt too. I imagine a lot of the time when people are giving gifts they are putting thought into it. Actually I think that rule can be quite effective. Years ago a friend got me a gift as a token of appreciation for helping her with her assignments. It...
  17. Do you actively post on social media?

    Fair enough, it is a pretty vast field though so I wouldn't be surprised if you did still engage with some areas of it. Although I tend to see politics in almost everything now. :LOL::LOL:
  18. What Are You Currently Reading?

    Yep, Taking Anthropology to the World. It is a class on public anthropology. I found the missing textbook too, I had left it at work in my locker.
  19. Post your desktop (or other wallpapers)

    I am not sure how they run their sales, but it is currently on special on their digital store here in New Zealand for 50% off. Sale price goes for 4 more days.
  20. Do you actively post on social media?

    Yep, I am pretty into politics. How about yourself?
