Honestly Damien trying and failing to give off cool evil villain vibes was what made me adore him so much when I first listened to the bright sessions. What do you mean he asked his therapist if she found him scary and when she said no he responded "Why not? :(" with the most audible frown I've ever heard? What do you mean he had an entire villain monologue prepped for Chloe and when she acted confused he instantly backpedaled and said, "Shit do I have the wrong girl?" He sucks so bad at being evil. He's doing it because it's what people expect him to be and it turns into community theater. You can tell so fast that he just wants people to think he's cool and interesting.

You’ll notice Miss Wormwood didn’t disagree, just gave him advice on how to handle the pain.

the more i talk w/ leftist friends the more i start to realize that they think culture is only defined by food or "traditional" (i.e. "ethnic") garb and nothing else

mentioned how white americans do in fact have a common culture and they genuinely thought i was joking. culture isnt something only granted to the Cool People of Color. just feels like among progressive groups there's this dichotomy created in which only the virtuous oppressed minorities have culture and anyone who is privileged some sort of void cultureless being

When I visited Chicago, the very first thing to weird me out from the airport was… how almost everywhere had revolving doors.

I’m Australian. Sure, we do have those doors, but the vast majority of places in Sydney are automatic sliding doors or old-fashioned manual push/pulls because we don’t need to block out the cold and wind the same way here.

So every day I experienced a culture clash with something as basic as what doors were normal for me.

Americans who say they don’t have a culture are plagued with defaultism beyond belief. Culture isn’t just made up of costumes and language and the largest stuff, it’s constructed of a billion small things you do every day that you never even consider could be different because that’s just “normal” to your daily life. No one has no culture just because they’re not adhering to the biggest markers they can consciously recognise.

The iceberg concept of culture: only 10% of what most people immediately think of as their culture is above the surface, and the deeper you go, the more emotional depth it gets.
