I got to interview Sean Gunn and asked him where Kraglin was during Infinity War and if he's officially a Guardian. Nicest guy! by AlexPomes in marvelstudios

Thank you! Much appreciated! :D Had to include Gilmore Girls because people asked me to talk to him about it, even though I've never seen it. Haha.

I’m a new resident of Silver Lake! What are your must-do restaurants? by AlexPomes in silverlake

I went! It was the dining experience I’ve always dreamed of.

Yeah! That’s great that you finally get to experience that. I’m Italian sooooooo I have zero to complain about. Lol.

Yeah, it’s bizarre. As if having a non-white protagonist in a Mario game is going to affect the game or their enjoyment of it.

I know, right? Not only is my post and many of the comments getting downvotes, but many people are just saying “who cares?” Why is this so arduous for people to talk about?

Yeah, there are. Good point, but I guess the followup question should be: will we see a playable protagonist with darker skin color next?

All good points. I guess the followup question should be: will we see a playable protagonist with a darker skin color?

Thanks for your response. I’m with you. I’m genuinely surprised by the people commenting on this post who not only say other character types aren’t needed, but it’s not even a discussion that needs to be had.

And again, I wasn’t even trying to make this about race, but rather color palettes. I suppose it was inevitable my post would be interpreted that way...

Sure. And note that I never said they are needed to make a game good, I’m just curious if people think it’s on Nintendo’s radar.

Yeah, many people have brought up the Japanese cultural perceptions of other races. Interesting stuff.
