Opinions & Truth (O&T)

"Opinions are like testicles. You kick them hard enough, doesn't matter how many you got."
- Varric Tethras, Dragon Age II"Human rights" are NOT an opinion; to NOT believe everyone should be granted the same opportunities on equal and equitable footing is to fail the world.MonriaTitans™️, pronounced Mon-Rye-Uh, is the overarching brand, the umbrella, for the Opinions & Truth (O&T) blog, The Weekend Game Show (WGS), and TitansMonriArt™️ (TMA).On my blog, O&T, and social media, I discuss whatever I feel like at the time, from politics to books, video games, TTRPGs, neurodiversity, and more, while sharing opinions I agree with.To further assist with the above, I have opened up a bookshop, with Bookshop.org, called the Rendezvous Point, which has a little bit of everything in it! I am, also, sharing the contents of my book collection, which I call The Neverending Reading List (NRL), for fun and to promote literacy! Check out the photos of the most recent ones shared below along, with my Artbook Collection (ABC), which I'm sharing in the hopes of making the world a more pleasant place for everyone!With WGS, I share my opinions on video games and educate on their development, while giving human artists shout-outs (more in the WGS section).And, with TMA, I share my view of the world visually.If the above topics interest you, check out the links to the left!

The Weekend Game Show (WGS)

"You may not like video games, but what I learned from them is this: no enemies in front of you means you are going the wrong way."
- UnknownIf you are racist, sexist, and/or LGBT+ phobic, don't come in!The Weekend Game Show (WGS) was established to educate on and discuss different aspects of game development, and to show why video games can take years to make, to prevent another Cyberpunk 2077 launch scenario.Everything going on with the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 had me thinking if players had a better understanding of what goes into the development of a game, there wouldn’t be so many people who became furious, and toxic, in response to delays.In addition, I give Artist Shout-Outs (ASO) to human artists to combat AI art theft. | All rights reserved by the artist(s).

How about considering if the AI spit you've seen looks like the artist's work before you accuse them of using AI.

To Support WGS & the ASOs

The Weekend Game Show (WGS) has two Ko-fis associated with it:One is for supporting the show directly, and the other is for assisting in boosting the Artist Shout-Outs on social media.Stating the obvious, so it's in the ether, monetary support is not required, but is very much appreciated!

To Support O&T

15% of all proceeds from Buy Me a Coffee go to Kids Need to Read to help the fight against illiteracy!I share educational quotes to promote literacy and the legitimacy of video games as an artistic medium.To provide educational resources, I also read aloud PORTIONS of books, then upload the videos to YouTube, O&T, and BMAC.The ASOs and my poetry are displayed on BMAC as well!The rest of the tips from BMAC will go towards books and being able to live.

To Support TitansMonriArt

The support from this Ko-fi will go towards upgrading tools, self-promotion, and being able to live.The current goal, however, is a new MacBook Pro Docking Station.I was part of the original KickStarter for the docking station. My old one has been with me since 2020, but it is no longer recognizing the cables attached to it. It deserves a proper burial, but, without it, I am down to one monitor and the Mac's keyboard.I can't stand it.
Please, help.For those curious about it,
