Added 2020-08-25 19:25:30 +0000 UTCI'm sorry the episode is a touch late, a plague has fallen upon my house. (Not COVID thankfully, but still :T )
I don't forget to heal Genji because of the Bystander Effect, I refuse to heal Genji because I will not follow him into death.

I love that you reach beyond games as entertainment and deal with larger issues that can, and probably will, touch all of us. I would love to watch your videos as part of a watch party, with friends and others, able to discuss the content and our own experiences. Wish I knew how to do that.

2020-08-25 20:08:32 +0000 UTCI think it's really important to note that the bystander effect is often overstated. The case from which the term is coined isn't as cut and dry as it's often said https://www.npr.org/2014/03/03/284002294/what-really-happened-the-night-kitty-genovese-was-murdered
