  • I’m just kinda glazing it tbh I’ve been having a lot of fun at the theater lately, my gf and her sister turned me kinda into a movie guy, I’ve been going to the theater a lot this year and I’ve seen some really good shit, both at home and at the theater. It really made me wish I hadn’t missed both Sinners and The Substance in the theater, substance is my favorite modern movie. Obsession made me feel like when people talk about seeing crazy good movies back in the 80s & 90s, how the experience was unmissable. I feel like we’re finally getting back to that, odyssey was a pretty mature Nolan film and I love seeing directors not falling to enshittification.


  • Idk I read the odyssey in High school & i think thought the movie does the epic part pretty well, the way they had the actors speak so directly was a fine way to condense the odyssey into 3 hours. I didn’t even see it in IMAX but it was still very visually captivating. Pattinson is a good example and Mia Goth, they were both very clear to read. I’m not saying it’s perfect by any means; it’s VERY Christoper Nolan, but again his movies are always fun for me so I do usually enjoy the ones I’ve watched. Like imagine if Homer wrote the Dark Knight I feel like his prose would be slightly Nolan-esque. lol.

    Anyways if you want a better inception you should watch Paprika (2006) if you haven’t, p sure inception is based on it and it’s so much better it’s not even close. Whoever you are, watch Paprika.


  • Emotionally I wouldn’t see it the same as cheating, rather Gambling addiction, not even drugs/alcohol but there is an addiction angle to a lot of this. Treat it like she spent 9000$ on the slots, basically what she did. She needs help OP, you gotta kinda gage if you’re willing to be her partner in life and take steps to help her thru this or you two need to discuss a way apart from each other. Because you will be married and therefor financially tied, this kinda shit has to be worked out if you’ll be married the rest of your life. I won’t be as rash as just saying dump her right now, but you definitely have some stuff to work out before your wedding … also don’t ever show her drugs









  • This realization you’re describing is really like the “you’re in the matrix” scene in the matrix. lol, forgive me as I’m not the most well read but I do love me my movies these days.

    When you realize the extent of imperial/colonialism that your country not only has done and continues to do in places most Americans will never go but also realizing your country is 100% founded on racist genocidal colonial settling it really hits different to listen to local politicians who’s hearts are in the right place but will never admit to America’s evils and then even justify them by saying we are the most diverse country in the world and that’s a good thing. Mf it is a good thing, but a lot of these diaspora can’t go home.

    We had a guy who was friends with segregationists running as a “progressive” Democrat in his fucking eighties. Don’t believe me, look up “Strom Thurmond” and a certain senator who looked up to him. It makes the world a little less fun, looking at things materially, but it brings a level of understanding your political environment and your country in general than most have and that does feel really good. When you meet other people who get it, that really makes life worth living.

    Anyway rant over, sorry there’s not really a point. Godspeed my native friend

    Well, you are the one attempting to discuss, if you want to prove your own claims (which are VERY serious claims) it is up to YOU to do so, not to yell at strangers and say it’s “genocide” before backpedaling when your own sources work against you. This isn’t denial, it’s trying to prove to many that you’re being lied to by the US, a country that has killed millions and millions of Muslims forgive me when an American talks about fixing China treating their Muslim population poorly. How many people in US speak their native language, how many US natives are there? I mean the TRIBES, not your European ancestors

    “When one desaturates, it’s hard to see color.” -🤓

    Sorry. 😂 You don’t even know what this meme is trying to convey? Maybe keep the poetry and political analysis in your notebook

    I also noticed you responded to me and not the other people who actually proved you wrong, you just wanted to try out your little poem on me didn’t you 🥲
