This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Vox does not know the definition of melancholy.

I would have accepted nostalgia as an appropriate sadness and joy pairing.

Also anxiety is NOT sadness and fear. I think that should be something like despondent or despair and then the sadness-sadness would be depression.

Likewise I think prejudice would be disgust and fear and disgust-disgust would be revulsion.

Also is the green emotion canonically disgust? Not envy/jealousy? I only half paid attention when my niece was watching the movie.

As per the trailer for Inside Out 2, Anxiety is a whole new character to appear in the new movie.

Vox is full of bullshit presented with earnesty and flair but the bullshit is never so egregiously bad they get enough complaints to stop doing it.

They're the r/coolguides of websites

Yeah, she's disgust. Jealousy isn't part of the movie.
