Hey I think this is as topical as the next guy but I'm not South Park. Like, yeah I think it's absolutely wild to be ridiculously rich and die from catastrophic implosion at the bottom of the ocean because you're bolted into in a metal tube (THAT HASN'T BEEN ASSESSED BY ANY GOVERNING PARTIES TO MEET ANY INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS OF SEAWORTHINESS) that's controlled by a third-party knockoff xbox controller, but you're not going to see me make Overwatch characters talk about it.

#it's kind of like that one ask about my fankids and school shootings #like yes I would be lying if I said the american trauma of mass shootings #didn't partially influence my perception of the fankids' overall childhood #but Overwatch is fiction and it operates by its own fictional logic #and I don't really want to plug stuff in like that without thinking about it very very hard #like there absolutely is something to be said here about unbridled tourist capitalism and billionaires being consumed by hubris #but damn we haven't even found the bodies yet
