We learn more quickly and bring back to mind more readily
The things we laugh at than those we respect and revere.

A quotation from Abraham Lincoln
My note to you I certainly did not expect to see in print; yet I have not been much shocked by the newspaper comments on it. Those comments constitute a fair specimen of what has occurred to me through life. I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Letter (1863-11-02) to James H. HackettMore about this quote: wist.info/lincoln-abraham/2183…

A quotation from Ambrose of Milan
To avoid dissensions we should ever be on our guard, more especially with those who drive us to argue with them, with those who vex and irritate us, and who say things likely to excite us to anger. When we find ourselves in company with quarrelsome, eccentric individuals, people who openly and unblushingly say the most shocking things, difficult to put up with, we should take refuge in silence, and the wisest plan is not to reply to people whose behavior is so preposterous.
Those who insult us and treat us contumeliously are anxious for a spiteful and sarcastic reply: the silence we then affect disheartens them, and they cannot avoid showing their vexation; they do all they can to provoke us and to elicit a reply, but the best way to baffle them is to say nothing, refuse to argue with them, and to leave them to chew the cud of their hasty anger. This method of bringing down their pride disarms them, and shows them plainly that we slight and despise them.
[Sed etiam ille cavendus; est, qui videri potest, quicumque inritat, quicumque incitat, quicumque exasperat, quicumque incentiva luxuriae aut libidinis suggerit. Quando ergo aliquis nobis convitiatur, lacessit, ad violentiam provocat, ad iurgium vocat: tunc silentium exerceamus, tunc muti fieri non erubescamus. Peccator est enim qui nos provocat, qui iniuriam facit et nos similes sui fieri desiderat.
Denique si taceas, si dissimules, solet dicere: Quid taces? Loquere, si audes; sed non audes, mutus es, elinguem te feci. Si ergo taceas, plus rumpitur; victum sese putat, inrisum, posthabitum atque inlusum.]Ambrose of Milan (339-397) Roman theologian, statesman, Christian prelate, saint, Doctor of the Church [Aurelius Ambrosius]
De Officiis Ministrorum [On the Duties of the Clergy], Book 1, ch. 5, sec. 17-18 (AD 386)Sourcing, notes, other translations: wist.info/ambrose-saint/32739/

But he that touches me, (hands off! I cry, —
Avaunt, and at your peril come not nigh!)
Shall for his pains be chaunted up and down,
The jest and byeword of a chuckling Town.

Qui me conmorit (melius non tangere, clamo),
Fiebit et insignis tota cantabitur urbe.]Horace (65-8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]

Here's a small pixelart animation I made. I got inspired by scorn and kinda wanted to get a similar atmosphere. I also love it when you actually use some graphic elements a camera animation along...

Birthday with an artbook, Scorn is 2 years old!
Scorn: The Art of the Game dives into the style inspired by H.R. Giger. What's impressive is the game had one concept artist, Filip Acović!

Retired U.S. Army Gen. Mark #Milley said former President #Trump is "a #fascist to the core," according to journalist Bob Woodward's forthcoming book, "War," multiple outlets reported on Friday.
Why it matters: Milley's existing #scorn for the GOP presidential nominee has escalated. "He is now the most dangerous person to this country," he told #Woodward.
"I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline.”https://www.axios.com/2024/10/11/mark-milley-trump-fascist-bob-woodward-book

Well it's spoopy season sooo
#LittleNightmares2 after finishing the first one a couple days ago, went right into 2.
Thinking #Dredge is next? Certainly fits the theme and I have been meaning to get to it.
#DeadSynchronicity on the #SteamDeck which has been interesting.Wanna get into #Scorn on the #SeriesX sometime this weekend as well, but we'll see.
I need to test the #SwitchOLED I just repaired so I'll prob hit up Game Stop for whatever I can find that's cheap while still being something I can stand to play for a couple hours. Tho I'm waiting on Joycons/Dock I got a couple days ago still, so that will likely be after the weekend.

#Scorn is a real gem that had me both engrossed with it but also grossed out because of it. Definitely not for everyone but I loved it and here's why!

February 8, 2024 - Day 404 - NewPlay Review
Total NewPlays: 440Game: Scorn
Platform: Steam
Released: Nov 4, 2021
Installed: Feb 8, 2024
Unplayed: 0d
Playtime: 17mRating: 1 - Nope
Scorn is a first person horror survival adventure puzzle game. It's the second game in February's Humble Choice bundle.
This was in my "never playing that" list, and seeing it show up in the bundle was a moment of "suck it up, princess."
However, for day 404, it was definitely a case of fun not found.
The game is viscerally disturbing, with the environment being all flesh, bone, and metal; a Gigeresque fusion that just had my brain screaming "GET OUT, QUIT, NOW!"
After exploring the tunnels of the first level, and sticking my avatar's hand into far too many squelching control interfaces, I was glad when my 15 minutes were up.
Scorn is an absolute:
1: Nope

Yes, just like you are trying to teach me what #right I, as an #American, have to talk about any other nation on the planet, I am trying to teach you that #US is not #monolithic, meaning not #uniform.
If it were, and if you are also from here, then you'd be part of the same #homogeneous group, and consequently, you'd also make yourself a target of the #scorn you are heaping on ALL of #America, right?
-
#US is not #monolithic.
Only a #thurd of #America deserves your #scorn.
The remaining 2/3 are trying to get out from under the #mess #Trump and #Republicans have created
