Nice Golden Sun cover. I've been meaning to fire that game up for the longest since it's the only JRPG I won since I lost Pokemon Blue, but I don't think it's gonna happen.
What made you angry?

Seeing/reading a lot of things that are making me very angry today. I'll never understand how some people can be so callous. There are times where I feel like I'm an emotionless monster, but then I read stuff like the stuff I read today and am thankful that I'm not that far gone.
I'm just gonna focus my anger constructively and if it gets too much, play some games to help calm down. Witch & Hero's not gonna beat itself, after all. Hit the max level (50) and am still going nowhere on the final boss. Least I can say I'm stuck at the same point my brother is, and that's saying something with my Circle Pad being as wonky as it is right now.
Love Golden Sun. Played through it a bunch of times and never got tired of it.
As to what made me angry, there were three major things:
1- A person shared a link to a horrid story of a woman who was attacked and wanted people to help in any way they could. Then someone else tried to make it an issue while insulting said person because of their profession.
2- An article that (among other things) claimed that people were flooding suicide hotlines in order to prevent people who are suicidal from getting help. The article in question just made this claim with no proof to back it up.
3- When called out on that article, the writer amended the article slightly but still saw fit to call everyone calling her out to be 'unhinged'.
I read it on Moviepilot, a site I never wish to visit again. If you want to read the edited article yourself it's titled 'The War for the Soul of Geek Culture'. And if you want to read the version with the baseless accusation included, here's an archived link: Here
