Yes but my point is that we did not really reconcile. The Civil War's division has never properly healed, as evidenced by our current political situation.
When I was maybe 10, I wanted Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis more than anything. My mother, who is an attorney, said it was too violent. So in order to convince her, I built a strong argument and plied her with it non-stop. I would argue that I was a smart kid and all that crap about video games making you violent was garbage. The argument that finally won me my beloved MK was that she had let me watch RoboCop the year before, and I hadn't gotten messed up by that. After that I was pretty much allowed to play or watch whatever.
It's the earliest I can remember really forming a coherent argument with supporting facts and whatnot, and advocating for what I want. It's a skill that would serve me quite well going forward. Well played, Mom.
I have Raycon Active buds. They're great at staying in while sleeping or running or whatever. Kinda too expensive for the sound quality imo but the fit is really good, at least for me.
Nazuna is my favorite hot mess.
