It's been a hot minute, and I don't particularly want to spend too much time on it, but I think season 5 episode 1 was the final straw with how they handle Chinese culture.

The show Psych used to be a favorite of mine. When rewatching it recently, there's a string of episodes a few seasons in that are just straight up all racial stereotypes

Oh, sorry, my bad. I wasn't aware disabilities were easily curable with exercise.

I've only looked at Canada and Japan personally, but I can add that Japan also does this. The process of immigrating is to effectively prove you'll be a net positive on their economy if you live there, limiting disability is one way they can do that.

I would put all my focus in making my games finally, instead of just some evenings

I wouldn't last long. I was born with club feet, so I wouldn't have been able to walk by my teens.

-_-

Same boat here tbh. My three were The Matrix, the Dark Crystal, and weirdly Cats the musical.

Same deal, but FFXIV for me, DawnTrail is kookin' juicy.

Almost exclusively Final Fantasy 14 with some Warframe and a smattering of older puzzle games.

I finally got an ultimate clear in Final Fantasy 14, after seeing the end of two separate fights right before the groups I was running them with went on break. For reference, Ultimates are the big end game raids that take upwards of 30+ hours of practice at the low end to get through

I recently switched from Goodreads to Storygraph, and have ended up tracking my reading a lot more reliably since the change.

Apothecary Diaries and Final Fantasy 14... Checks out, Maomao could easily be an alchemist.

For me it's Answers from FFXIV

Such a heartfelt moment that I tear up as soon as I hear the melody

Fair correction and additional info, thanks.

Android: Netrunner, as the other comment alludes to, an LCG originally made by FFG that is now supported by the non profit NISEI with print and play stuff.

Working through Perdido Street Station on my new Kobo. I understand the critiques on pacing, and spending too much time on world building as now, 400 pages in, races, sections of the city, creatures, and cultures are still being introduced. But it has been an enjoyable ride so far, especially with one of the main PoVs being one of my favorite tropes of just "scientist doing science"

My first gaming experience was when I was stuck in the hospital for days due to surgery on my feet when I was super young. My mom's friend let me borrow her kid's NES and, as I couldn't get out of bed, I did nothing but play River City Random, Super Mario Brothers, and one other game I no longer remember.

I'm certainly liking it so far. I'm not far in yet, though.
