05:05 “It taught me a hell of a lot about how people internalize something that you’ve made.”
08:00 “I don’t really identify with that stuff as much as I used to.”

24:10 “My most cherished games that I play lately just make me feel uncomfortable with myself.”
25:15 “We’ve put up boundaries between one another that don’t need to exist.”
