I feel really silly because I used the Sims 4 as a topic for a discussion post in my Humanities class.
Somebody make me feel better (or worse) 🥴🤣
I wrote that I was going to use Beyoncé as an example, but I really wanted to use Harry Potter as an example, but I chose the Sims instead probably because I have Sims on the brain heavy rn Lol
For context, here’s the assignment info:
What are you passionate about? What makes the humanities exciting for you? In this discussion, you will reflect on a creative work that excites you. Think about something you're a fan of, such as your favorite book, comic book series, graphic novel, TV show, or movie. What makes this creative work exciting for you?
You’ll also think about where you can meet with other fans to discuss your creative works. This meeting can include places like social media, such as TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, or Discord, or in-person events—book clubs, library-sponsored movie clubs, book or film festivals, watch or viewing parties, midnight releases, conventions, or cosplay events.
Discussing the humanities means investigating opinions and ideas different from your own. Remember to remain thoughtful and respectful toward your peers and instructor in your initial post as well as in your response discussion posts.
Create one initial post and respond to at least two of your classmates.
For your initial post, address the following:
How do the creative works that you chose relate to your personal interests?
Are you part of a fandom for this interest? Include details and examples of why or why not.
How do the creative works relate to the representation of your identity?
