How it feels when someone in a group realizes ur not the best with social cues or interactions in general and notices how u don't process information that well/differently and takes extra time to make sure ur comfy and explain thing to you:

Revelation: my whole life, when I've responded to sarcasm seriously, people have been like "uh...why you so serious... I was being sarcastic..." and it makes me insane because like... duh? Why am I not allowed to respond to sarcasm seriously? Why does it have to be treated as hOw DiD yOu MiSs ThAt I wAs KiDdInG? Basically: why is it framed as me failing when I absolutely knew it was sarcasm?

Anyway, this just happened with my wife (no shade, it's very rare with her as compared to like, my uncle, and I told her it made me uncomfortable, we're good, it was just the spur to the revelation) and I think I've realized why it happens and why it bothers me so much.

It's always framed as me missing something, but it's not.

I knew they were being sarcastic, and I chose to respond seriously.

THEY failed to interpret MY response.

Or: damn boy (genderneutral) sorry my Yes, And game is just SO FUCKIN SUPERIOR yall should work on recognizing deadpan. Skill issue.

Okay but good on Winston for feeling that tiny paper in Julia’s hand and understanding he needed to hold onto it. When someone tried to do that to me with an entire gold bracelet, I fucking dropped it on the floor. All I was thinking was “Wow why is this lady squeezing my hand for so long? I don’t like it,” and backed out without realizing she wanted me to grab the hard metal thing in her hand. I could feel it, but I thought it was her keys or something.

Nowww I remember why Yorgos Lanthimos rang a bell when I watched Poor Things, he did the sad Colin Farrell moviessss, aka The Lobster and Killing of a Sacred Deer.. so I got my ass up and watched The Lobster and it was actually really good 😅 when something gets too kino and looks like it appeals to a certain audience I get turned off, but this was very good, and my biggest worry that the tone would be overwhelmingly morose is actually totally unfounded, the movie is surprisingly good at keeping tone light with darker themes (fun sidenote the psycho chick credited as Donkey Shooter has only been in one other thing as an actress, a short film called Heavy Metal Strawberry Pickers, I guess she's mainly in bts production on stuff, but it led me down a weird rabbithole)

Anyway if every frame's a painting here are some paintings from Love on the Spectrum aka The Lobster

^ Timothee Chalamet?? (I thought but nah lol)

^ "Fear is the little death" "what's in the box? Pain" "the gom jabbar! The high handed enemy" damn Dune is wild (oh yeah also John C. Reilly is just... there in the movie?)
