If that game had more stuff to do and a longer quest line and randomized camps and poo poo. it would be amazing. the biggest issues is that by the time you have cool upgrades, the game is over. Or just a new game plus.

Some idiot got a copyright strike because he took a full-length movie by MarzGurl and commented over it with his friends, and cannot for the life of him move on. This has been going on all afternoon. This is some kind of way of following the thread, it's hard to get all of it because he blocked or muted her or something. https://twitter.com/OdieEsty/status/992526205273419778 Here's a partial screencap:

Canadian university professor who is terrified of the neo marxists with no idea what philosophy actually entails. He's this generation's "things were better back in my imaginary nostalgia past, so stop getting uppity." types.

Now don't take this video as an endorsement of the content producer, because I don't know anything about Cult of Dusty, but this is a pretty succinct summary of how Peterson blew up into this phenomenon.

Peterson also has a really bad case of Academic Speak, where you just pad out everything with jargon and complicated sentence structure where it's not actually necessary, to the point that all meaning gets strangled. Which seems to attract people who want to feel smart by reading stuff like "clean your room and you will feel less depressed" but overgrown with ivory tower speak.

Hes a kermit the frog-rear end sounding motherfucker whose general thesis is basically conservative through the lens of third-tier self help speaking and a questionable grasp of mythology. His whole strategy is to dogwhistle by taking superficially logical statements ("there are biological differences between males and females...") and pad it out with jargon until he's just shy of stating what his audience already believes ("...therefore, trans people doesn't real and women are just crazy and stupid because of their vaginas") without actually stating it in clear terms. Also he's incredibly loving dumb and lacks basic literacy in even his own loving field, and once, infamously, took a critic saying his work had a bad habit of "romancing the Savage" as an actual, for real accusation that he was horny for a particular male native American coworker.

He's very good at saying a lot of words with the veneer of legitimacy while actually saying nothing of value, the perfect figure for the Alt-Right to champion. As Contra put in her video, he's fond off dancing around his actual positions and baiting people into either getting frustrated and dropping the point, or falling into a trap that he can use to impress the kind of idiots who'll upload the clips with JORDAN PETERSON ANALLY DESTROYS HYSTERICAL POSTMODERNIST as the title or some poo poo

SuperButterBuns has a new video on the Kingdom Hearts series and I don't know if I'd recommend anyone to take Buns' advice but at the same time it's rather sensible. Anyone who makes a guide on how to get into a large and convoluted series like KH has to be a good soul. These kind of videos are so good for people although I can't think of many series like KH where playing just about every game is part of the gameplan to prepare for KH3.

Peterson's got a GREAT grift going on. He tells his fans that we need to defund humanities and all because it's all cultural marxists and his entire industry is based around being young men's first experience to someone reading meaning into stories in a real way so his absolute loving drivel of 'you see in Peter Pan the children don't want to grow up because Captain Hook is the only adult they see around them...and that means somehow the feminists and minorities are destroying the world' seems revolutionary and amazing. He's probably one of the genuinely dumbest pieces of poo poo in the west but his entire scam is trying to make sure he's the first and only person his target demo encounters like a fuckin cult leader.

Jordan Peterson does story analysis? But he's not that kind of humanities professor - he's a clinical psychologist. Of course, he's also not a philosophy professor, but he's never let that stopped him from calling his ideas "philosophy", so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that he'd delve into other areas for which he's ill-equipped.

He's dangerous because he's a reactionary and attracts the nazi teens and 30-somethings.
