And the whole thing about "Listen, I don’t care about your whatever" kinda ties in with how we've been dealing with art that's triggering for us or doesn't run on our computer or costs more than we can afford or whatever? Because we can deal with that because there's an unimaginable amount of art in existence. Like, if we started today with all the art today, we would not get through it all before more art was made tomorrow, and that's not even counting all the art made yesterday, day before, and all the way into the past.
I don't know. I really got caught up in that article because it reframed the question of how to help strangers. Like, we'd used that one Wordle Accessibility tool to generate image descriptions a few times, but why would anyone care exactly what squares are colored and what are not? It'd be more interesting to say, idk, "A couple lit squares in the first guess and none in the second, then four out of five with three of those in the wrong place before winning on guess four", and if someone wants to break down every tiny detail, they can ask. Don't describe every atom, tell the story, idk.
It's a really good article and it's still sticking with us.

And the thing about perspective is really important. Like, we've never read or watched a single review or summary of "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare", because we don't care ... but we watched the Innuendo Studios video about the game, the conversation around the game, and the videogames industry. It doesn't matter that I don't care about Call of Duty, because Ian Danskin's discussion of it has its own value.
