  • He knows perfectly well why.

    He’s gaslighting so the people who hate him hate him louder, which he can then use as validation that they’re crazy or irrational.

    It’s fucking disgusting and obvious as hell. He deserves all of the shit thrown at him and he knows it but doesn’t care because he doesn’t have to face any real consequences for it, so he escalates.

    Everyone’s anger is his weapon against them, sadly because his supporters are dumb enough to go with it. He needs tangible consequences or else this will just keep getting worse.









  • The game is life has an interesting enough premise to be a limited series. If done correctly I think you could do some awesome storytelling with it.

    Basically, Earth is a simulation (The Game) used to teach young inhabitants of a planet called Tygon how to live a good life by letting them live multiple lives on Earth. Most Humans are NPCs but many are real people, and the decisions they make on Earth affect how much they earn.

    The simulation has replaced schools, sports and entertainment, financial system, and is one’s primary way of earning funds to set them up for the rest of their life after they turn 18, at which point they can no longer enter the simulation.

    Some world building from the books:

    • wonders or ancient monuments are Easter eggs left over from the beta testing period
    • you can purchase buffs for your human avatar to try and influence what kind of life you have on Earth, but your desired outcome is never guaranteed
    • one lifetime on Earth is approximately 2-3 weeks on Tygon. After a short recuperation period one can re-enter and live out a new lifetime, hopefully subconsciously taking back lessons learned from past experiences to live a more fulfilling life.

    Won’t spoil the rest but I could see it either become a hit or a flop.
