The opening credits of I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (which is so bad it's amazing) crack me up every time because they so desperately want to be the beginning of Resident Evil. And, sweetie, you're the third movie in a shitty slasher franchise with flashes of a fucking amusement park not a well-done zombie movie taking place in a secret underground facility where a computer has just commited mass murder, let's not kid ourselves.

But please keep acting like you're doing something new and interesting, it's hilarious.

dear gods i adore horror tbh but i am way too sensitive to it

While it’s important to consider that abuse can be physical and/or emotional, I think it’s also good to remember:

A tense period with someone does not necessarily mean abuse

A friendship that’s turned sour or become emotionally draining does not necessarily mean abuse

A hella painful falling out does not necessarily mean abuse

Unkind or hateful words does not necessarily mean abuse

Interactions that directly cause someone pain does not necessarily mean abuse

I want to be clear: These can be part of an abusive experience. This is neither excusing nor downplaying bad actions. It’s important to know these can be red flags and indicators for abuse. Furthermore, a person’s intentions do not determine whether or not they’re an abuser.

My point is that a relationship with miscommunications, frustrations, sour moments, etc. is not necessarily abusive. I feel like lots of posts equate conflict with abuse, tensions with abuse, strained relations with abuse. It’s not that cut and dry. The bar isn’t set that low. Not all periods of pain and toxicity are abuse! They’re still unfun, they’re still bad, but abuse is a specific experience! It’s good to recognize strained periods happen even in the best relationships, and that there’s a difference between that and the cycle of abuse, the pattern of abuse, the impacts of abuse.

Relationship bad =/= abuse

Or, all abusive relationships are bad, but not all bad relationship experiences are abuse.

If you default to calling all uncomfortable interactions abuse, you’re going to miss opportunities of personal growth and you’re going to lack wisdom identifying how to handle these interactions.

YESYESYES I AM HERE FOR THE PSYCH ART THANK YOU!!! 2006 show fandom is sleeping but still alive🙏

OMG!! well I am happy to provide whatever doodles I may do... <3

doom 2005 is actually a good movie. its plot is solid enough that anyone could watch and follow what going on, the characters are introduced in a way that lets you get a good understanding of what theyre like, its got fun action scenes and is over all an enjoyable movie to sit down and watch. i think it just suffers from not being a “doom” movie. its a resident evil movie calling itself doom

I don't want to be at work I want to be home writing some silly little words.

cried on the bus tonight, it was sunset and I was on the bus back from the supermarket and when we turned a corner everyone started gasping and pointing to everyone that the blue super moon was rising - everyone was taking turns looking down the isle and calling people to tell them about it. in that moment we weren't strangers and the moon was huge and it was orange and when I got off at my stop I stood and watched everyone also stopping in their tracks to take a photo or even just look. the same thing had happened earlier with this insane sunset. its the last day of winter and the way there was such beauty in the setting sun in the west and the rising moon in the west I don't know how to word it but it really makes me think there is good out there. like we are all connected through the beauty in thins and want to share that with whoever we can strangers or not. its times like these I just want to keep wrapped up under my bed for the days I don't feel like there's any left. at some point I will reword this to be more poetic but it was just such a moment; I haven't felt this human in so long . I need to make sure there is solid evidence it did happen even if its not the prettiest its here and it was real and I was alive to witness it

i achieved my goodreads goal for the first time ever (!) largely because i read several books i couldn’t put down. thought i’d share them in case anyone is looking for their next read! :)

station eleven by emily st. john mandel a traveling symphony roams the earth bringing music and shakespeare to what’s left of humanity after most were wiped out by a virus. (the story is beautiful and so much more than that, pls read the full synopsis)

nothing to see here by kevin wilson an aimless, down-on-her-luck 20-something goes to nanny for the step kids of her high school crush. said kids happen to spontaneously catch on fire.

the nightingale by kristin hannah two sisters taking different paths to survive france during world war 2. everyone you know has read this. i really didn’t think i’d like it, but man it was a page turner.

the testaments by margaret atwood the handmaids tale sequel, featuring the atwoodian prose you know and love. no, you don’t have to re-read ‘handmaids’ as a refresher. (having watched the series helps, i think.)

project hail mary by andy weir by the guy who wrote ‘the martian.’ a man wakes up in deep space and his two crew mates are dead. he’s the only one who can save humanity... if he can regain his memory. 

godddd I can't wait for the 2023 musketeers movie, if it doesn't get an overseas theater release I will WEEP that is a movie I want to see in a theater

i'm sorry to say that this trend to cast poc actors for roles who were originally played by white people or are said not to be poc in the original material........ Is starting not to sit right with me. Not because poc actors take over those roles, but because it's just such a cheap way to gain "woke" points or say "here!! Look how diverse we are!!" without actually changing anything. The originals remain the same. The production team and writing team remain white. There's no real change. I just think it's so like manupulative in a way. Genuinely happy that poc actors get that paycheck tho!!

the sense of having any lore about the ancient [ten to thirteen years ago] of marble hornets times like granpa granpa tell us a greentext story....the only hitch is not having stories and instead having "i guess you had to be there" tales from the fringes, unless instead of a hitch you frame this as a bit

I just changed the Blaine DeBeers icon I've been using for over 5 years because Dr. Herbert West has such a strong hold on me now... I feel like I'm losing my goddamn mind over this dorky lil scientist dude ughhh

thinking about how how your mother met me is all about tracy living with her grief over her boyfriend’s death and how she learned how to love again and that the whole series’ meta is about ted living with his grief over his wife’s death replaying those years where she was still alive even though they hadn’t met yet and him learning how to move on and love again in the finale

i continue to be surprised how our body, minds, and universe align perfectly sometimes and we get just what we needed even if we don't realize we needed it
