Oh man that Frozen example works so well! My daughter was a young kid during the peak Frozen years so I can hear those lyrics sung perfectly in my head.

07.03.2026 21:30 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Ah, makes sense. To be fair the actual Middle Ages has an awful lot of Latin (though the 19th century has its fair share 😅).
07.03.2026 21:10 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I'm confused, don't these neo-Nazis love the Middle Ages? And Britain in particular?
07.03.2026 21:04 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Good point, I should look up the more technical definition. I've tried talking about my trauma in a talk therapy context and mostly found it a downer. Game development at least gives me a sense of accomplishment, however misplaced 😅
07.03.2026 19:31 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Is it really a form of healing though? I feel like my experiences make for good fuel for an interactive story, but to be honest thinking about all this stuff might actually be making things worse for me from a mental health perspective. I just feel oddly compelled to keep going.

I had a Greek-descended psychiatrist who enjoyed learning about the word, which was new to her.
(I wasn't at the psychiatrist *because* of paleography class, in case that wasn't clear).
In Ancestry commercials the people talking always find out all these wonderful things about their ancestors and it's like well what if you use the service and you find out you're descended from a bunch of assholes, do you get like a rebate or something?

05.03.2026 02:35 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I remember thinking of this song during the VP debate when Vance kept calling it "eye-ran" 😅
04.03.2026 16:10 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The lack of progression mechanics was a real killer. Like it or not we all want rewards for playing, at least in the multiplayer space.
03.03.2026 22:31 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Extraction is such a cruel genre of multiplayer as well. You can invest so much time in a session only to lose everything you gained at the last second. I don't have room in my life for that kind of pain 😅
