i didnt grow up in an era of mcdonaldland ads nor do i have any particular affection for mcdonalds (worked there at one point) and yet i do wish mcdonaldland was real and i could go there

rewatched insidious recently with friends and it's a surprisingly experimental film. but also, it is terrible

realizing that the last time my parents came over i forgot to hide the detroit become human hentai on my zine rack

in all honesty it was kind of a high pressure sale from a very aggressive hentai salesman at an anime convention. i had to buy something and didnt want anything with naruto characters in it

epstein is way too common of a surname for it to be used as a shorthand for sex crimes tbh. people are doing it anyway but it's not fair to non-sex criminals with that name

have you ever stopped to consider what you're doing to the legacy of the epstein brothers orchestra and their beautiful klezmer music

perpetual source of frustration that we supposedly live in an era of Awareness about every type of mental illness/"neurodivergency" but 9 times out of 10 when i try to describe my symptoms/what my life looks like to people i get the manga old man who says "i don't know. that's scary"

i get that some people are trying to make the best of a shameful and difficult thing by making it a positive, and they are not the reason i am judged or not understood, that would happen anyway. but man it's alienating.

something i noticed lurking r/meth on reddit was a notable minority of people who started using meth as an alternative to adderall, or even after having an adderall prescription that they then lost access to

i think the reason this scene works on me (when the rest of the movie mostly doesn't) is that it successfully evokes a feeling i've had watching slasher movies

when you're a dweeby edgelord teen watching slasher movies and identifying yourself with the killer, you feel the vicarious triumph of killing everybody you're mad at. but the triumph is tinged with melancholy bc you don't *really* want to kill everyone. you still want connection and acceptance

i really enjoyed you can see everything, which if you know anything about my tastes is sort of a fork found in kitchen situation.

i'm not sure i'm even that sold on its artistic merit, i just like to look at extreme close ups of human faces and watch people behave in strange and horrible ways

i'm addicted to giving movies 4 stars on letterboxd

i think in some ways it's good that horror movies feature less sexual violence than they used to. they used to sprinkle a little rape into any old horror movie for no real reason (see: re-animator, evil dead). but also sexual violence can be an interesting thing for horror to reference or evoke...

i liked obsession fine but i fundamentally don't agree that it's a feminist film. i think it was successful in part bc the viewer can see what they want to see in it
