Nina Simone – Pastel Blues (1965)

Season 2 was definitely better then season 1 which I personally did not like. Season 2 was really entertaining and enjoyed a lot of the set pieces and music, hell even the action. But did I think Dante was utilized the best? No, his trauma and relationship with Vergil, who is the actual star of the season yes. Do I think this is a great version of DMC? That’s still iffy for me in certain areas of the anime but at least this season was fun but what did you guys think? What do you think the season did better or worse for you personally?

“What kept me sane was knowing that things would change, and it was a question of keeping myself together until they did.”

I don't know why, but there's something i really love about the scene with Klaus in the bathtub listening to music and smoking while We're Through by the Hollies plays

I was curious what other people think about the Sinnerman/There Is A Light That Never Goes Out quest in CP2077 and I was kinda (not really) surprised that no one seems to have the reaction I had. Because it didn't make me feel icky like some people said, I didn't find it profound either. It just made me so fucking angry. At religion. I can't even find it in myself to feel any compassion for religious people who are being exploited by corporations in that quest (literally everyone is exploited by corporations one way or another).

I am an atheist raised Catholic in a very Catholic country. Religious fanatics in the government are taking away my rights as we speak.

Joshua is a terrifying person. He is still actively hurting the mother of one of his victims (invades her home and demands forgiveness and then gets angry when she doesn't forgive him). He talks about love with so much anger and hatred in his voice.

His idea of "saving" people with his newfound faith is to perform a grand but ultimately empty gesture. He says he wants to reach people. That if this doesn't open their eyes, then nothing will. Open their eyes to what? They know what Christianity is. Seeing another variation of Passion will not teach them anything more than any other version of it. He thinks all problems would be solved if everyone was Christian (and it is not even that much of a simplification) and this is not an abstract sentiment, but something that I see in real life in real religious fanatics. He may claim he doesn't think he is the messiah but he absolutely does. He thinks him dying on a cross will save people. He thinks he's Jesus.

He is not doing anything meaningful. He is not doing anything to help people. Again: he tries to force a woman whose child he killed to forgive him (Zuleikha is also awful for doing this to her mother). The way he gets angry makes me uneasy, makes me feel unsafe. I have no compassion for him not because I don't believe he changed, but because I don't see his change as positive. He is a religious fanatic. Is it caused by mental health issues? Definitely. Am I against the death penalty in general? Absolutely. None of those things matter when I see religious fanaticism every day making people's lives worse. In Joshua's case we can see it clearly from the beginning, with Ruben's mom getting retraumatized by his self-righteous demand for forgiveness. And what is more upsetting, that by christian standards, Zuleika and Joshua are "the good ones" and Gloria is not. Because she should forgive. That's what the bible says. And I think it's so fucking unfair and anti-human.

The most important sentence in that quest, in my opinion, came from Rachel. "Spirituality can only ever be personal." It shows that even though here she is a tool of corporate exploitation, she is actually a person with a very specific view on the subject: she's against organized religion. She sees the pointlessness of Joshua's decision. She is actually, personally, against all this. It is hard to be fully on her side when she is organizing this whole farce, but it is interesting to see the reason she is so cold and antagonistic towards Joshua. The reason that is not as cynical as it seems.
