STEAM Box vs Our Unpopular Favorites
TRIGGER WARNING
In an effort to discuss some of the things we enjoy that most people do not... we ended up exploring why some of these things are so unpopular. While I was expecting answers like Pineapple on pizza, we spent a lot of time discussing why it sometimes feels like the world does not like girls. We discussed America's representation of violence in our media and also Japan's representation of sexual violence in our media. And of course, we also talk about Spiderman 3, Pokemon, Bidets, and Dinosaurs.
I look forward to having experts on soon who can process and unpack some of these themes, because we tread lightly in the shallow end of a deep pool today. Thank you Central Falls Warriors, and Highlander STEAM Punks for starting the conversation today.
May the 4th be with you!
