#I'M AN EMOTIONALLY COMPROMISED TEENAGE GIRL

[britts-galaxy-brain]

Sunny stole his story from ginger . You are awful for standing by someone THIS heinous. Do you just not care, Britt? That it? I mean you already abused your ex and are now helping Courtney coach a teenager just because “trans girl bad”.

You’re pathetic. Go drink bleach. Tell sunny he can too because he doesn’t deserve a shred of compassion after he’s lying about grooming.

Get the fuck out of my inbox, Lily. And get better suicide bait. It's obvious when it's you.

For whoever else who may be reading this, I've spoken about ONE of my exes publicly. The one who financially, emotionally, and mentally abused me for two years after I left my parents' house. The one who almost ran my mother over with her car after blowing up at me because I refused to pay her $100 after she stole $300 from me over the course of three months.

Your accusation makes no goddamn sense. Sunny didn't steal shit, he had his own experiences that happen to be similar to Ginger's. Because Lily treats everyone in her life pretty much the same. She gets way too close to minors, allows them to interact with her sexually under the guise of plausible deniability, posts sexually charged and outright explicit shit around minors to normalize it, then swoops in and dates them as soon as they're old enough for her to get away with it.

The feelings Sunny has described line up perfectly to what a grooming victim would feel. And given things he's talked about concerning his past, he'd be susceptible to someone like Lily's predatory ass.

Go read my fucking chat logs. She's admitted to being attracted to minors. She's made up stories about raping a high school girl out of "nothing but pure malice". Her porn accounts are filled with depictions of children. She sexually abused ME the entire time I fucking knew her because she wouldn't take "I'm uncomfortable" for an answer. Went as far as to create a FAKE ACCOUNT to steal compromising photos of me and try to coerce me into cybering with her. Get FUCKED.

If anyone deserves to be drinking bleach in a ditch, it's you.

Hellsite Nostalgia Tour 2023 Day 11

"Asylum"

Would I Survive the First Five Minutes??: Yes. I simply would not go into a place I knew was horrifically haunted. That's what Shane Madej and Ryan Bergara are for. I also simply would not marry a cop. 8/10

I like that we are getting a continuation of the "finding dad" storyline for the second episode in a row, even if it's causing tension between the boys

(eeeeeeuuuuuuuggggghhhhhhhhh. back on my todobros au bullshit. dean is exactly what touya would be like if endeavor had been a different kind of neglectful of his eldest kid. and shoto/sam begging him to look beyond what their dad wants)

Sam trying to lie while also trying to not lie to this therapist is phenomenal. "been on a road trip with my brother. met a lot of...interesting people. did a lot of...interesting things" yes, girl, give him nothing

STOP GOING TO HAUNTED PLACES. GIRL, DUMP HIM IMMEDIATELY. YOU WERE PROMISED A MOVIE.

Dean spitting facts "when someone says a place is haunted, don't go in!" Thank you, Dean

$20 says that's not actually Dean on the phone. DO kind of love that the teenage girl is the one who can fire a shotgun and her lameass boyfriend can't #feminism (/j...at the tag. i am actually glad she's the one with the shotgun...for now, at least. i don't trust the writers) also, good for her for saying she's breaking up with him if they make it out alive

Knew it. Wasn't Dean on the phone. Was it Dr Ellicot? Probably.

WELL DAMN. Oh god...I'm really, really emotionally compromised watching them fight like this. Like, that was some REALLY HURTFUL SHIT. Dean giving Sam the pistol and Sam pulling the trigger while aiming at Dean???? Like, yeah, it wasn't loaded, and yeah, Sam was not fully himself at the time, but FUCK, man!

Seeing Dean throw the zippo lighter to salt and burn the bones is reminding me of the post about how many zippo lighters the Winchesters just waste over the course of the series

"Been On My Mind...": (Half way through and the bulk of the extra cast has been a middle aged therapist and a teenage girl...I'm gonna guess no) I was right.

"Dalek"

HERE. WE. GOOOOOOOOO!!! In a complete 180 of how I felt about the last adversaries the Doctor faced, I fucking LOVE the Daleks.

I was really hoping this episode took place just a LITTLE closer to our current time, but to have it set in 2012 is also very good

Man, I remember watching this episode for the first time and not knowing anything about ANYTHING. Like, NOW I recognize the cyberman head for what it is, but at the time? Could have been just some random robot head.

Ugh. This guy is insufferable. Thankfully, I think we just have to deal with him for one episode.

Man...the Dalek reveal happens MUCH earlier than I recalled it. I also think this is the rawest interaction between the Doctor and a Dalek we get in the series (at least as far as I remember). GODDDDDDDD two sworn enemies, mortal (and yet also immortal) enemies, coming to realize or being reminded that they are the last of their kind in the whole universe. The seething hatred between them, and yet...they have this one thing in common that no one else can possibly understand. It's GORGEOUS.

This poor kid...believes and believes and believes, and Rose just knows and won't tell. I mean, she has no reason to tell him, but still.

Why are they just standing there if hey were just told the Dalek could get out so easily?? Just. Run.

...okay but now I'm just curious about what if this episode DID take place closer to this year. The Dalek downloaded the entire internet, and they just asserted that it now knows everything. But like...that was 2005's thoughts on what they believed 2012's internet would be like...if it were closer to now, the Dalek has extensive knowledge of omegaverse and all of homestuck and every qanon conspiracy theory. I WANT TO SEE WHAT PSYCHIC DAMAGE 2023 INTERNET WOULD GIVE A DALEK (i swear i do love them, but it's just...this is so interesting)

"YOU. WOULD. MAKE. A. GOOD. DALEK." is such a banger line. Absolute mic drop of an insult.

Nah, I'm with the Dalek. That guy should die.

Watching the inner, squishy Dalek alien feel the sunlight after being trapped 53 floors below the ground and tortured has me feeling very "but what if I gave it a hug?" post. It's a good thing I grabbed my Dalek plushie before I started the episode. You know, to hug at this moment.

Movie Review | The Deer Hunter (Cimino, 1978)

After stepping through Heaven's Gate spending a couple of Desperate Hours over the last weekend, I was still in a Michael Cimino mood so I decided to... become The Deer Hunter... by rewatching The Deer Hunter. Sorry, that was terrible. I promise I won't partake in any more awful attempted wordplay in this review. Anyway, after my qualms with the construction of both of those movies, it was nice to be reminded, after probably fifteen years since my last viewing, how well paced this one is. I think one of the more common complaints about this is the length of the wedding sequence in the first hour, but I think it's a pretty essential part of the movie and the runtime is well used. Over this hour, you get the sense of the community the heroes come from, and the amount of time Cimino devotes to capturing life in this town allows us to grasp its rhythms and contradictions. A lesser movie would paint it in saccharine sentiment or glib generalizations (I think of one particularly on the nose moment from We Were Soldiers where characters mistake racism for strict laundry rules), but Cimino's camera does not shy away from uglier moments, like the depressing normalcy of violence against women. There's a novelistic richness here with the level of detail and specificity, the fact that the community is only a generation or two away from its immigrant roots, the fact that most of the men are employed by the steel mill and that there isn't much else to do around here, each character's virtues and flaws being slowly shaded in. This may not be a perfect town, or even every town, but it's theirs.

The languorous pacing of the first act also sets up the sledgehammer impact of the second act, when we're plunged into the thick of combat and then the notorious Russian Roulette torture scene. This stretch only lasts for around half an hour (and we maybe spend an hour in Vietnam, apologies if I'm off by a few minutes, my watch is low on batteries), but it casts a pall over the rest of the movie. Any semblance of normalcy we had in that first hour has been shattered. The movie has been criticized for its monstrous depiction of the Vietnamese, and I think the points leveled against it are fair. But the movie is upfront about channeling the Vietnam War from the American experience, and from that perspective there's maybe a certain emotional honesty in reveling in such ugliness. If you're going to depict characters struggling with PTSD and try to show the completeness of their experience, it makes sense to depict their time in combat with raw, unmitigated terror. I recognize this puts the movie in morally compromised territory, but on a gut level, I was moved.

Now, when I last watched this as a teenager, I'd found much of the last third, whereupon Robert De Niro returns from Vietnam and takes up with Meryl Streep, to be a little boring. I can offer two such reasons for having held this opinion. One, as all teenage boys can attest, all girls have cooties, and that extends to multiple Oscar Winner Meryl Streep. Two, I was very much hoping that the movie would get (back) to the Russian Roulette factory and found the return to small town Pennsylvania kinda slow. (Before you ask, I was and probably still am very much a film bro, although mostly but not entirely loving The Deer Hunter is hardly the worst opinion a film bro can have. The worst opinion a film bro can have is liking The Boondock Saints, of which I am still guilty as charged. Sorry, Willem Dafoe is so funny in that movie.) Thankfully, I've now atoned for my thoughtcrime, and now recognize that Streep, like practically everybody in this movie, is great, and that the offness of that last hour is integral to the movie's effect.

If we're gonna step back into the Cimino Corner, as far as female performance go, I think I preferred Isabelle Huppert in Heaven's Gate than Streep here, although Huppert's role is emotionally loadbearing while Streep's is auxiliary by definition. And I think the offness allows us to feel on a gut level the difficulty of readjusting to "normal" life when you've been through such a harrowing experience. The depictions of wilderness provide an easy to grasp example. The forest is breathtaking in its beauty in that first hour, but having been through the Vietnamese jungle and its evil aura, it is difficult to feel that same emotion when we go for another hunting trip after having come home. (De Niro finds himself unable to kill a deer upon his return, something Cimino compensated for by killing way more animals for real in his next movie.) We have a few characters whose versions of masculinity are not completely aligned but in close enough proximity before going to war, drift apart in this respect upon their return as they struggle to readjust in different ways. Christopher Walken, whose performance is probably the most showy, goes to one extreme, John Savage the most vulnerable, and De Niro the most withdrawn. I think the other performance of his that this most brings to mind is The Irishman. The characters in question are very different in most respects, but both lack the ability to articulate their experiences, benefit from that particular contemplative quietness De Niro brings.

So yeah, good movie. Check it out, folks.

What is the difference between a feeler who can maintain a professional distance and one who struggles with it? It happened on Call The Midwife recently ( my point of reference lately) Sister Julianne advising Sister Frances. I must admit I sometimes find Sister Julianne a little aloof but I can understand getting too caught up doesn’t necessarily help.

Sometimes it's the difference between a dominant feeler and an auxiliary feeler and sometimes it's the difference between having been trained to do that -- in professions like nursing, it's better to emotionally remain distant in order to be able to make rational judgments and impersonal decisions, to give them the best possible 'care' without allowing yourself to be ripped apart if they die or experience an enormous loss. Sister Julienne is still impacted heavily by people and what happens to them (remember when she found the infant left to die in front of an open window; it gutted her), but she advised Frances to gain some distance, because she can't afford to get sucked into a teenage girl's problems -- it might compromise her ability to be objective and make decisions based on what's "best" rather than "how this girl feels about it." Julienne has had what, 40 years in the profession and has learned to keep her distance? And Frances is only twenty years old.

I also think it matters a lot what the topic pertains to -- I have seen feeler-auxiliaries get super impassioned and unable to be impartial if it's something that truly matters to them (like defending a loved one), and seen a surprising amount of emotional distance from an EFJ when it comes to making decisions for "the greater good" (humanity) over "the individual's feelings" (one person). How you are judging them also says something about your own Fe/Fi function.

Sister Julienne... I like her a lot, because she's pretty practical about things. Like most ISJs, she wants to carefully weigh all the information before passing judgment on it. She's an ISFJ, so she can choose to back off from Fe when it's required -- and she does this a lot in her attempt to make fair, rational judgments in various situations. She can also have a blind spot about it, though -- as she said in the most recent episode, she overlooked the fact that it might be difficult for one midwife who experienced a miscarriage to return to work and see babies being born every day. Her focus was scattered over too many responsibilities / people, so she did not anticipate or think about how painful that might be. It seems odd for a Fe not to anticipate that, but it's also very realistic in that ... she would be caught up in other things, accustomed to how things are done, and have, as she pointed out, "no experience with married midwives... this has never happened before!" All of the IFJs can seem more distant than their extroverted counterparts.

I think Frances is an ESFJ. I've been on the fence about her for a while -- she's also a 6, I think. She started out very insecure, and is still somewhat seeking of a foundation to build upon, but is gradually finding her footing. The other nun -- the one who cheerfully takes over Nurse Crane's duties -- intrigues me more. She seems open-minded and ready for anything and somewhat non-traditional; I see her as Ne and Te, but I'm not sure in which order. She sometimes bulldozes ahead and insults people without meaning to, which could be ENFP-ish... but she could also just be a 9w1 ISTJ (the 9 being where all of the open-mindedness is coming from). I like the new nurse as well, with the daughter -- she's an ESFP for sure. Did you see how she lit up when attending that lecture, and had so many questions -- she was excited to GO there and physically SEE what advances in medicine are being made -- it's so wonderfully Se, I love it. I haven't learned all the newcomer's names yet :P and am too lazy to look them up, so... that's all for now. lol

anyway i think i accidentally reblogged like 3 things straight out of the gate that were meant to go into the queue but i don’t care really it’s back to being packed to the gills either way. y’all enjoy that i’m going to calm myself.

[908south]

I'm trying to stay as far away from spoilers as I can because I know we are not all caught up. And it's not really what I want to talk about anyway. We are soon headed into the season where all the brand new shows release trailers and speculation about what next season will bring can begin. But until that happens we have three weeks filled with the writers for every show that's wrapping up doing their best to put you on the edge of your seat because they want the guarantee that you come back for another year. They think that makes it okay.
