If you are a doctor, you solve health-related problems daily (activity), you observe facts which are related to health (e.g. pulse, blood pressure, breathing, general wellbeing) and often think of different things how they relate to health (interpretation). On the other hand, if one works as a manufacturer, one knows how produce certain kinds of things (activity and viewpoint). One also knows how much materials cost (fact) and how much people are willing to pay for the goods (facts). I believe this is the idea behind another famous Nietzsche quote: "There are no facts, only interpretations". Normally, for something to increase a Monster's happiness, the two objects must be placed side by side. However, purchasing a Unity Tree from the Market (available at level 16) will allow decorations and monsters to be placed anywhere on an island, including into Storage or a Hotel, without affecting the Monster's happiness level.

Monsters are commonly encountered in fantasy or role-playing games, as well as video games, as enemies for players to fight against. They may include aliens, legendary creatures, extra-dimensional entities or mutated versions of regular animals. Wright A (2013) Monstrosity: the human monster in visual culture. I.B. Tauris, London and New York, NY Could already be an example of "slave morality" which he seems to have outlined later in that book. In that if you deify your opponents as monsters and lean in on your resentment of them, you give them power over yourself. They are the ones who control your thinking and acting, in that everything you do and think is in response to this powerful enemy (even if it's phrased as an antagonism, it's the monster who determines your moral code). So if all you think relates to the monster how can you think of becoming anything other than a monster or what would you be once you've defeated the monster?While Carnival Row is steeped in fantasy, it also serves as a commentary on the real world, touching on some of today’s most serious issues. This intent – that is, offering up a mirror to society and conveying meaningful lessons – has been woven into storytelling and folklore throughout the ages. Frankenstein is part of discussions of the post-human condition. In this context, the question of what it means to be human contests with the transformative powers of technology, which are either welcomed as an extension or dreaded as an invasion (Zylinska, 2002; Szollosy, 2017). Analysis and critical framing of the technological evolution and consequences for human relations is in Donna Haraway ( 1991), Bruno Latour ( 1993), Chris Hables Grey ( 1995) and Elaine Graham ( 2002). Reviewing the existing literature, Graham ( 2004) notes ‘contemporary technology […] will shape our understandings of what it means to be human into the next century. For embedded in the various technologies are crucial issues of identity, community and spirituality’ (p. 12).
